1. So Solomon finished building the Lord’S Temple and his own palace. Solomon built everything that he wanted to build.
2. Then the Lord appeared to Solomon again, just as he did at Gibeon.
3. The Lord said to him, “I heard your prayer and what you asked me to do. You built this Temple, and I have made it a holy place. So I will be honored there forever. I will watch over it and think of it always.
4. You must serve me with a pure and honest heart, just as your father David did. You must obey my laws and do everything that I commanded you.
