Solomon's Benediction
54
1Now as Solomon finished offering all this prayer and plea to the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, where he had 2knelt with hands outstretched toward heaven.
55
And he stood and 3blessed all the assembly of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
56
"Blessed be the LORD who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised. 4Not one word has failed of all his good promise, which he spoke by Moses his servant.
57
The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers. 5May he not leave us or forsake us,
58
that he may 6incline our hearts to him, to walk in all his ways and to keep his commandments, his statutes, and his rules, which he commanded our fathers.
59
Let these words of mine, with which I have pleaded before the LORD, be near to the LORD our God day and night, and may he maintain the cause of his servant and the cause of his people Israel, as each day requires,
61
9Let your heart therefore be wholly true to the LORD our God, walking in his statutes and keeping his commandments, as at this day."
