1 Kings 8:26

“ Now therefore, O God of Israel, let your word, I pray you, be verified, which you spoke to your servant David my father.”

Solomon then again prayed that God, as the God of Israel, would let the word that He had spoken be verified. Note the threefold progression in 1 Kings 8:24. ‘You have kept -- and have fulfilled it to this day'. ‘Now therefore keep --'. ‘Let your word be verified --.' He was basing everything on God's promise to David, and looking not only for the continuation of his own kingship, but, in the final two statements, for the final everlasting kingdom.
