1599 Geneva Bible: “God Bows our Hearts"

1 Kings 8:58 That he may (i)bow our hearts unto him, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his laws, which he commanded our fathers.

i. Solomon concludes that man of himself is at heart an enemy unto God, and that all obedience to God's Law proceeds out of God's mere mercy
