KJV - 1 Kings 8:27

But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house that I have builded?

But can God really live on Earth? Look, even the sky and the heavens above can't hold you. So, how could this little house I built possibly contain you?
