1 Kings 8:26 in Context — 1 Kings 8

24 que guardaste ao teu servo Davi, meu pai, o que lhe disseste: pois com a tua boca o disseste, e com a tua mão o cumpriste, como hoje se sucede.

25 Agora, pois, ó SENHOR Deus de Israel, guarda ao teu servo Davi, meu pai, o que lhe prometeste, dizendo: Não te faltará sucessor diante de mim que se assente no trono de Israel; contanto que os teus descendentes guardem o seu caminho para andarem diante de mim como tu andaste diante de mim.

26 Portanto agora, ó Deus de Israel, cumpra-se a tua palavra que disseste ao teu servo Davi, meu pai.

27 Mas, na verdade, haveria Deus de habitar na terra? Eis que os céus, e até o céu dos céus, não te podem conter; quanto menos esta casa que eu edifiquei!

28 Contudo, volta-te à oração do teu servo, e à sua súplica, ó SENHOR, meu Deus, para ouvires o clamor e a oração que o teu servo faz hoje diante de ti.
