אָבִ֑י (י) i “my”

From the day when I took my people Israel out of Egypt, no town in all the tribes of Israel has been marked out by me for the building of a house for the resting-place of my name; but I made selection of David to be king over my people Israel.

Now it was in the heart of David my father to put up a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

But you yourself will not be the builder of my house; but your son, the offspring of your body, he it is who will put up a house for my name.

לִשְׁמִֽי׃ (י) i “my”

And the Lord has made his word come true; for I have taken my father David's place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel, as the Lord gave his word; and I have made a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

אָבִ֜י (י) i “my”

And you have kept the word which you gave to your servant David, my father; with your mouth you said it and with your hand you have made it come true this day.

אָבִ֔י (י) i “my”

So now, O Lord, the God of Israel, let your word to your servant David, my father, come true, when you said, You will never be without a man to take his place on the seat of the kingdom of Israel before me, if only your children give attention to their w

So now, O God of Israel, it is my prayer that you will make your word come true which you said to your servant David, my father.

אָבִֽי׃ (י) i “my”

Still, let your heart be turned to the prayer of your servant, O Lord God, and to his prayer for grace; give ear to the cry and the prayer which your servant sends up to you this day;

אֱלֹהָ֑י (י) i “my”

That your eyes may be open to this house night and day, to this place of which you have said, My name will be there; hearing the prayer which your servant may make, turning to this place.

שְׁמִ֖י (י) i “my”

And may these my words, the words of my prayer to the Lord, be before the Lord our God day and night, so that he may see right done to his servant and to his people Israel, day by day as we have need.

And the Lord said to him, Your prayers and your requests for grace have come to my ears: I have made holy this house which you have made, and I have put my name there for ever; my eyes and my heart will be there at all times.

As for you, if you will go on your way before me, as David your father did, uprightly and with a true heart, doing what I have given you orders to do, keeping my laws and my decisions;

מִצְוֹתַ֣י (י) i “my”חֻקֹּתַ֔י (י) i “my”

Then I will have Israel cut off from the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have made holy for myself, I will put away from before my eyes; and Israel will be a public example, and a word of shame among all peoples.
