2 Chronicles 6:10-16

[10] The LORD  therefore hath performed  his word  that he hath spoken:  for I am risen up  in the room of David  my father,  and am set  on the throne  of Israel,  as the LORD  promised,  and have built  the house  for the name  of the LORD  God  of Israel.  [11] And in it  have I put  the ark,  wherein is the covenant  of the LORD,  that he made  with the children  of Israel.  [12] And he stood  before  the altar  of the LORD  in the presence of all the congregation  of Israel,  and spread forth  his hands:  [13] For Solomon  had made  a brasen  scaffold,  of five  cubits  long,  and five  cubits  broad,  and three  cubits  high,  and had set  it in the midst  of the court:  and upon it he stood,  and kneeled down  upon his knees  before all the congregation  of Israel,  and spread forth  his hands  toward heaven,  [14] And said,  O LORD  God  of Israel,  there is no God  like thee in the heaven,  nor in the earth;  which keepest  covenant,  and shewest mercy  unto thy servants,  that walk  before  thee with all their hearts:  [15] Thou which hast kept  with thy servant  David  my father  that which thou hast promised  with thy mouth,  and hast fulfilled  it with thine hand,  as it is this day.  [16] Now therefore, O LORD  God  of Israel,  keep  with thy servant  David  my father  that which thou hast promised  him, saying,  There shall not fail  thee a man  in my sight  to sit  upon the throne  of Israel;  yet so  that thy children  take heed  to their way  in my law,  as thou hast walked  before  me.
