King James Version (KJV)

That thine eyes may be open toward this house night and day, {even} toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall make toward this place. {toward this place: or, in this place}

Modern English

that your eyes may be open toward this house night and day, even toward the place of which you have said, ‘My name shall be there;’ to listen to the prayer which your servant prays toward this place.
