22 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly of Israel and spread out his hands to heaven.(A)
17 I will wait for the Lord, who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob, and I will hope in him.(A)
2 Rather, your iniquities have been barriers between you and your God,and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.(A)
3 For your hands are defiled with blood and your fingers with iniquity;your lips have spoken lies; your tongue mutters wickedness.(A)
4 Then they will cry to the Lord, but he will not answer them;he will hide his face from them at that time because they have acted wickedly.(A)
