King Solomon prayed: “To the foreigner, who is no part of your people Israel and who actually comes from a distant land by reason of your name... and he actually comes and prays toward this house, may you yourself listen from the heavens... in order that all the peoples of the earth may get to know your name so as to fear you. ” ​ — 1 Kings 8: 41 - 43; 2 Chronicles 6: 32, 33.
ובא והתפלל אל הבית הזה, אתה תשמע השמים... למען ידעון כל עמי הארץ את שמך, ליראה אותך ”. — מלכים א ’. ח ’: 41 – 43 ;‏ דברי ־ הימים ב ’. ו ’: 32, 33‏ .‏
