הַבַּ֨יִת הַזֶּ֜ה אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּ֣ה בֹנֶ֗ה אִם־תֵּלֵ֤ךְ בְּחֻקֹּתַי֙ וְאֶת־מִשְׁפָּטַ֣י תַּֽעֲשֶׂ֔ה וְשָׁמַרְתָּ֥ אֶת־כָּל־מִצְוֺתַ֖י לָלֶ֣כֶת בָּהֶ֑ם וַהֲקִמֹתִ֤י אֶת־דְּבָרִי֙ אִתָּ֔ךְ אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבַּ֖רְתִּי אֶל־דָּוִ֥ד אָבִֽיךָ׃
Du errichtest hier ein Heiligtum — ja, wenn du nach meinen Satzungen wandeln wirst und meine Rechte tun und wahren alle meine Gebote, nach ihnen zu wandeln, so werde ich aufrecht halten mein Wort an dir, das ich deinem Vater David verheißen habe.

“This House that you are building” [6:12]. The Holy One said to Solomon: the House you are building, if you will keep My commandments and My Torah, then I will keep My words that I said to your father and I will rest among you. The prophet Ahijah the Shilonite said this to Solomon in the name of the Holy One.17Yalkut Shimoni, I Kings, Remez 183. That is to say, the Holy One had him say to Solomon; do not think that everything depends on this beautiful building, the quantities of gold and silver that you put in it, but you should also be pious.
