1 Kings 8:23 in Context — 1 Kings 8

21 J’y ai disposé un lieu pour l’arche où est l’alliance de l’Éternel, l’alliance qu’il a faite avec nos pères quand il les fit sortir du pays d’Égypte.

22 Salomon se plaça devant l’autel de l’Éternel, en face de toute l’assemblée d’Israël. Il étendit ses mains vers le ciel, et il dit:

23 O Éternel, Dieu d’Israël! Il n’y a point de Dieu semblable à toi, ni en haut dans les cieux, ni en bas sur la terre: tu gardes l’alliance et la miséricorde envers tes serviteurs qui marchent en ta présence de tout leur cœur!

24 Ainsi tu as tenu parole à ton serviteur David, mon père; et ce que tu as déclaré de ta bouche, tu l’accomplis en ce jour par ta puissance.

25 Maintenant, Éternel, Dieu d’Israël, observe la promesse que tu as faite à David, mon père, en disant: Tu ne manqueras jamais devant moi d’un successeur assis sur le trône d’Israël, pourvu que tes fils prennent garde à leur voie et qu’ils marchent en ma présence comme tu as marché en ma présence.
