2 Chronicles歷代志下6:18-20

“神果真與世人同住在地上麼．看哪、天和天上的天、尚且不足你居住的．何況我所建的這殿呢。惟求耶和華我的　神、垂顧僕人的禱告祈求、俯聽僕人在你面前的祈禱呼籲．願你晝夜看顧這殿、就是你應許立為你名的居所．求你垂聽僕人向此處禱告的話。”

“But will God really dwell on earth with men? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain you. How much less this temple I have built! Yet give attention to your servant’s prayer and his plea for mercy…May your eyes be open toward this temple day and night, this place of which you said you would put your Name there. May you hear the prayer your servant prays toward this place.”
