1 Kings 8:55-58 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

55. Then, in a loud voice, he blessed all the people of Israel. Solomon said:

56. “Praise the Lord! He promised he would give rest to his people Israel. And he has given us rest! The Lord has kept all the good promises he gave through his servant Moses.

57. I ask that the Lord our God be with us. May he be with us as he was with our ancestors. May he never leave us.

58. May he cause us to turn to him and follow him. May we obey all the laws and commands he gave our ancestors.
