KJV - 1 Kings 9:3

And the LORD said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.

And God told him, "I heard your prayer and your request that you made to me. I have made this place you built special by putting my name here forever. My eyes and my heart will always be here."
