2 Tawarikh 6:16

6:16 Now, O Lord God of Israel, keep the promise you made to your servant, my father David, when you said, ‘You will never fail to have a successor ruling before me on the throne of Israel, ¹  provided that your descendants watch their step and obey my law as you have done.’ ² 

2 Tawarikh 6:33

6:33 Then listen from your heavenly dwelling place and answer all the prayers of the foreigners. ³  Then all the nations of the earth will acknowledge your reputation, ⁴  obey ⁵  you like your people Israel do, and recognize that this temple I built belongs to you. ⁶ 

[6:16]  ¹ tn Heb “there will not be cut off from you a man from before me sitting on the throne of Israel.”

[6:16]  ² tn Heb “guard their way by walking in my law as you have walked before me.”

[6:33]  ³ tn Heb “and do all which the foreigner calls to [i.e., “requests of”] you.”
