1 Kings 8:54 in Context — 1 Kings 8
52 Que tes yeux soient ouverts sur la supplication de ton serviteur et sur la supplication de ton peuple d’Israël, pour les exaucer en tout ce qu’ils te demanderont!
53 Car tu les as séparés de tous les autres peuples de la terre pour en faire ton héritage, comme tu l’as déclaré par Moïse, ton serviteur, quand tu fis sortir d’Égypte nos pères, Seigneur Éternel!
54 Lorsque Salomon eut achevé d’adresser à l’Éternel toute cette prière et cette supplication, il se leva de devant l’autel de l’Éternel, où il était agenouillé, les mains étendues vers le ciel.
55 Debout, il bénit à haute voix toute l’assemblée d’Israël, en disant:
56 Béni soit l’Éternel, qui a donné du repos à son peuple d’Israël, selon toutes ses promesses! De toutes les bonnes paroles qu’il avait prononcées par Moïse, son serviteur, aucune n’est restée sans effet.
