Exegesis
The phrase meheykalo {מֵהֵֽיכָלוֹ֙ | mēhēyḵālō} ‘from His temple’ specifies the locus of hearing, while the paired objects qoli {קוֹלִ֔י | qōlî} ‘my voice’ and we-shaw-ati {וְשַׁוְעָתִ֖י | wĕšaw‘ātî} ‘my cry’ intensify the appeal.
In context — 2 Samuel 22:7
In my distress I called to the LORD ; to my God I cried. From His temple He heard my voice, and my cry reached His ears.
