1 Kings 1:1--11:43

1:1
Now king
<04428>
David
<01732>
was old
<02204> (8804)
[and] stricken
<0935> (8804)
in years
<03117>_;
and they covered
<03680> (8762)
him with clothes
<0899>_,
but he gat no heat
<03179> (8799)_.
{stricken...: Heb. entered into days}
1:2
Wherefore his servants
<05650>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Let there be sought
<01245> (8762)
for my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
a young
<05291>
virgin
<01330>_:
and let her stand
<05975> (8804)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
and let her cherish
<05532> (8802)
him, and let her lie
<07901> (8804)
in thy bosom
<02436>_,
that my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
may get heat
<02552> (8804)_.
{Let there...: Heb. Let them seek} {a young...: Heb. a damsel, a virgin} {cherish...: Heb. be a cherisher unto him}
1:3
So they sought
<01245> (8762)
for a fair
<03303>
damsel
<05291>
throughout all the coasts
<01366>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and found
<04672> (8799)
Abishag
<049>
a Shunammite
<07767>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
her to the king
<04428>_.
1:4
And the damsel
<05291>
[was] very
<03966>
fair
<03303>_,
and cherished
<05532> (8802)
the king
<04428>_,
and ministered
<08334> (8762)
to him: but the king
<04428>
knew
<03045> (8804)
her not.
1:5
Then Adonijah
<0138>
the son
<01121>
of Haggith
<02294>
exalted
<04984> (8693)
himself, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I will be king
<04427> (8799)_:
and he prepared
<06213> (8799)
him chariots
<07393>
and horsemen
<06571>_,
and fifty
<02572>
men
<0376>
to run
<07323> (8801)
before
<06440>
him. {be king: Heb. reign}
1:6
And his father
<01>
had not displeased
<06087> (8804)
him at any time
<03117>
in saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Why hast thou done so
<06213> (8804)_?
and he also [was a] very
<03966>
goodly
<02896> <08389>
[man]; and [his mother] bare
<03205> (8804)
him after
<0310>
Absalom
<053>_.
{at any...: Heb. from his days}
1:7
And he conferred
<01697>
with Joab
<03097>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>_,
and with Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>_:
and they following
<0310>
Adonijah
<0138>
helped
<05826> (8799)
[him]. {he...: Heb. his words were with} {following...: Heb. helped after Adonijah}
1:8
But Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
and Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and Shimei
<08096>_,
and Rei
<07472>_,
and the mighty men
<01368>
which [belonged] to David
<01732>_,
were not with Adonijah
<0138>_.
1:9
And Adonijah
<0138>
slew
<02076> (8799)
sheep
<06629>
and oxen
<01241>
and fat cattle
<04806>
by the stone
<068>
of Zoheleth
<02120>_,
which [is] by
<0681>
Enrogel
<05883>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
all his brethren
<0251>
the king's
<04428>
sons
<01121>_,
and all the men
<0582>
of Judah
<03063>
the king's
<04428>
servants
<05650>_:
{Enrogel: or, the well Rogel}
1:10
But Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>_,
and the mighty men
<01368>_,
and Solomon
<08010>
his brother
<0251>_,
he called
<07121> (8804)
not.
1:11
Wherefore Nathan
<05416>
spake
<0559> (8799)
unto Bathsheba
<01339>
the mother
<0517>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Hast thou not heard
<08085> (8804)
that Adonijah
<0138>
the son
<01121>
of Haggith
<02294>
doth reign
<04427> (8804)_,
and David
<01732>
our lord
<0113>
knoweth
<03045> (8804)
[it] not?
1:12
Now therefore come
<03212> (8798)_,
let me, I pray thee, give thee counsel
<03289> (8799) <06098>_,
that thou mayest save
<04422> (8761)
thine own life
<05315>_,
and the life
<05315>
of thy son
<01121>
Solomon
<08010>_.
1:13
Go
<03212> (8798)
and get thee in
<0935> (8798)
unto king
<04428>
David
<01732>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)
unto him, Didst not thou, my lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_,
swear
<07650> (8738)
unto thine handmaid
<0519>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Assuredly
<03588>
Solomon
<08010>
thy son
<01121>
shall reign
<04427> (8799)
after
<0310>
me, and he shall sit
<03427> (8799)
upon my throne
<03678>_?
why then doth Adonijah
<0138>
reign
<04427> (8804)_?
1:14
Behold, while thou yet talkest
<01696> (8764)
there with the king
<04428>_,
I also will come in
<0935> (8799)
after
<0310>
thee, and confirm
<04390> (8765)
thy words
<01697>_.
{confirm: Heb. fill up}
1:15
And Bathsheba
<01339>
went in
<0935> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>
into the chamber
<02315>_:
and the king
<04428>
was very
<03966>
old
<02204> (8804)_;
and Abishag
<049>
the Shunammite
<07767>
ministered
<08334> (8764)
unto the king
<04428>_.
1:16
And Bathsheba
<01339>
bowed
<06915> (8799)_,
and did obeisance
<07812> (8691)
unto the king
<04428>_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
What wouldest thou? {What...: Heb. What to thee?}
1:17
And she said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, My lord
<0113>_,
thou swarest
<07650> (8738)
by the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
unto thine handmaid
<0519>_,
[saying], Assuredly Solomon
<08010>
thy son
<01121>
shall reign
<04427> (8799)
after
<0310>
me, and he shall sit
<03427> (8799)
upon my throne
<03678>_.
1:18
And now, behold, Adonijah
<0138>
reigneth
<04427> (8804)_;
and now, my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
[it] not:
1:19
And he hath slain
<02076> (8799)
oxen
<07794>
and fat cattle
<04806>
and sheep
<06629>
in abundance
<07230>_,
and hath called
<07121> (8799)
all the sons
<01121>
of the king
<04428>_,
and Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Joab
<03097>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>_:
but Solomon
<08010>
thy servant
<05650>
hath he not called
<07121> (8804)_.
1:20
And thou, my lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_,
the eyes
<05869>
of all Israel
<03478>
[are] upon thee, that thou shouldest tell
<05046> (8687)
them who shall sit
<03427> (8799)
on the throne
<03678>
of my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
after
<0310>
him.
1:21
Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
shall sleep
<07901> (8800)
with his fathers
<01>_,
that I and my son
<01121>
Solomon
<08010>
shall be counted offenders
<02400>_.
{offenders: Heb. sinners}
1:22
And, lo, while she yet talked
<01696> (8764)
with the king
<04428>_,
Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>
also came in
<0935> (8804)_.
1:23
And they told
<05046> (8686)
the king
<04428>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_.
And when he was come in
<0935> (8799)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_,
he bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself before the king
<04428>
with his face
<0639>
to the ground
<0776>_.
1:24
And Nathan
<05416>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
My lord
<0113>_,
O king
<04428>_,
hast thou said
<0559> (8804)_,
Adonijah
<0138>
shall reign
<04427> (8799)
after
<0310>
me, and he shall sit
<03427> (8799)
upon my throne
<03678>_?
1:25
For he is gone down
<03381> (8804)
this day
<03117>_,
and hath slain
<02076> (8799)
oxen
<07794>
and fat cattle
<04806>
and sheep
<06629>
in abundance
<07230>_,
and hath called
<07121> (8799)
all the king's
<04428>
sons
<01121>_,
and the captains
<08269>
of the host
<06635>_,
and Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>_;
and, behold, they eat
<0398> (8802)
and drink
<08354> (8802)
before
<06440>
him, and say
<0559> (8799)_,
God save
<02421> (8799)
king
<04428>
Adonijah
<0138>_.
{God...: Heb. Let king Adonijah live}
1:26
But me, [even] me thy servant
<05650>_,
and Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
and thy servant
<05650>
Solomon
<08010>_,
hath he not called
<07121> (8804)_.
1:27
Is this thing
<01697>
done
<01961> (8738)
by my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
and thou hast not shewed
<03045> (8689)
[it] unto thy servant
<05650>_,
who should sit
<03427> (8799)
on the throne
<03678>
of my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
after
<0310>
him?
1:28
Then king
<04428>
David
<01732>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Call
<07121> (8798)
me Bathsheba
<01339>_.
And she came
<0935> (8799)
into the king's
<04428>
presence
<06440>_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
{into...: Heb. before the king}
1:29
And the king
<04428>
sware
<07650> (8735)_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
[As] the LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
that hath redeemed
<06299> (8804)
my soul
<05315>
out of all distress
<06869>_,
1:30
Even as I sware
<07650> (8738)
unto thee by the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Assuredly Solomon
<08010>
thy son
<01121>
shall reign
<04427> (8799)
after
<0310>
me, and he shall sit
<03427> (8799)
upon my throne
<03678>
in my stead; even so will I certainly do
<06213> (8799)
this day
<03117>_.
1:31
Then Bathsheba
<01339>
bowed
<06915> (8799)
with [her] face
<0639>
to the earth
<0776>_,
and did reverence
<07812> (8691)
to the king
<04428>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let my lord
<0113>
king
<04428>
David
<01732>
live
<02421> (8799)
for ever
<05769>_.
1:32
And king
<04428>
David
<01732>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Call
<07121> (8798)
me Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_.
And they came
<0935> (8799)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
1:33
The king
<04428>
also said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Take
<03947> (8798)
with you the servants
<05650>
of your lord
<0113>_,
and cause Solomon
<08010>
my son
<01121>
to ride
<07392> (8689)
upon mine own mule
<06506>_,
and bring him down
<03381> (8689)
to Gihon
<01521>_:
{mine...: Heb. which belongeth to me}
1:34
And let Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>
and Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>
anoint
<04886> (8804)
him there king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_:
and blow
<08628> (8804)
ye with the trumpet
<07782>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
God save
<02421> (8799)
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_.
1:35
Then ye shall come up
<05927> (8804)
after
<0310>
him, that he may come
<0935> (8804)
and sit
<03427> (8804)
upon my throne
<03678>_;
for he shall be king
<04427> (8799)
in my stead: and I have appointed
<06680> (8765)
him to be ruler
<05057>
over Israel
<03478>
and over Judah
<03063>_.
1:36
And Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
answered
<06030> (8799)
the king
<04428>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Amen
<0543>_:
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
say
<0559> (8799)
so [too].
1:37
As the LORD
<03068>
hath been with my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>_,
even so be he with Solomon
<08010>_,
and make
<01431> (0)
his throne
<03678>
greater
<01431> (8762)
than the throne
<03678>
of my lord
<0113>
king
<04428>
David
<01732>_.
1:38
So Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
and the Cherethites
<03774>_,
and the Pelethites
<06432>_,
went down
<03381> (8799)_,
and caused Solomon
<08010>
to ride
<07392> (8686)
upon king
<04428>
David's
<01732>
mule
<06506>_,
and brought
<03212> (8686)
him to Gihon
<01521>_.
1:39
And Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>
took
<03947> (8799)
an horn
<07161>
of oil
<08081>
out of the tabernacle
<0168>_,
and anointed
<04886> (8799)
Solomon
<08010>_.
And they blew
<08628> (8799)
the trumpet
<07782>_;
and all the people
<05971>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
God save
<02421> (8799)
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_.
1:40
And all the people
<05971>
came up
<05927> (8799)
after
<0310>
him, and the people
<05971>
piped
<02490> (8764)
with pipes
<02485>_,
and rejoiced
<08056>
with great
<01419>
joy
<08057>_,
so that the earth
<0776>
rent
<01234> (8735)
with the sound
<06963>
of them. {pipes: or, flutes}
1:41
And Adonijah
<0138>
and all the guests
<07121> (8803)
that [were] with him heard
<08085> (8799)
[it] as they had made an end
<03615> (8765)
of eating
<0398> (8800)_.
And when Joab
<03097>
heard
<08085> (8799)
the sound
<06963>
of the trumpet
<07782>_,
he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Wherefore [is this] noise
<06963>
of the city
<07151>
being in an uproar
<01993> (8802)_?
1:42
And while he yet spake
<01696> (8764)_,
behold, Jonathan
<03129>
the son
<01121>
of Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>
came
<0935> (8804)_:
and Adonijah
<0138>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Come in
<0935> (8798)_;
for thou [art] a valiant
<02428>
man
<0376> (8676) <0381>_,
and bringest
<01319> (0)
good
<02896>
tidings
<01319> (8762)_.
1:43
And Jonathan
<03129>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
to Adonijah
<0138>_,
Verily
<061>
our lord
<0113>
king
<04428>
David
<01732>
hath made Solomon
<08010>
king
<04427> (8689)_.
1:44
And the king
<04428>
hath sent
<07971> (8799)
with him Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>_,
and Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>_,
and Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
and the Cherethites
<03774>_,
and the Pelethites
<06432>_,
and they have caused him to ride
<07392> (8686)
upon the king's
<04428>
mule
<06506>_:
1:45
And Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>
and Nathan
<05416>
the prophet
<05030>
have anointed
<04886> (8799)
him king
<04428>
in Gihon
<01521>_:
and they are come up
<05927> (8799)
from thence rejoicing
<08056>_,
so that the city
<07151>
rang again
<01949> (8735)_.
This [is] the noise
<06963>
that ye have heard
<08085> (8804)_.
1:46
And also Solomon
<08010>
sitteth
<03427> (8804)
on the throne
<03678>
of the kingdom
<04410>_.
1:47
And moreover the king's
<04428>
servants
<05650>
came
<0935> (8804)
to bless
<01288> (8763)
our lord
<0113>
king
<04428>
David
<01732>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
God
<0430>
make the name
<08034>
of Solomon
<08010>
better
<03190> (8686)
than thy name
<08034>_,
and make
<01431> (0)
his throne
<03678>
greater
<01431> (8762)
than thy throne
<03678>_.
And the king
<04428>
bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself upon the bed
<04904>_.
1:48
And also thus said
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which hath given
<05414> (8804)
[one] to sit
<03427> (8802)
on my throne
<03678>
this day
<03117>_,
mine eyes
<05869>
even seeing
<07200> (8802)
[it].
1:49
And all the guests
<07121> (8803)
that [were] with Adonijah
<0138>
were afraid
<02729> (8799)_,
and rose up
<06965> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
every man
<0376>
his way
<01870>_.
1:50
And Adonijah
<0138>
feared
<03372> (8804)
because
<06440>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
and arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)_,
and caught hold
<02388> (8686)
on the horns
<07161>
of the altar
<04196>_.
1:51
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
Solomon
<08010>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, Adonijah
<0138>
feareth
<03372> (8804)
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_:
for, lo, he hath caught hold
<0270> (8804)
on the horns
<07161>
of the altar
<04196>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
swear
<07650> (8735)
unto me to day
<03117>
that he will not slay
<04191> (8686)
his servant
<05650>
with the sword
<02719>_.
1:52
And Solomon
<08010>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
If he will shew himself a worthy
<02428>
man
<01121>_,
there shall not an hair
<08185>
of him fall
<05307> (8799)
to the earth
<0776>_:
but if wickedness
<07451>
shall be found
<04672> (8735)
in him, he shall die
<04191> (8804)_.
1:53
So king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)_,
and they brought him down
<03381> (8686)
from the altar
<04196>_.
And he came
<0935> (8799)
and bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself to king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_:
and Solomon
<08010>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Go
<03212> (8798)
to thine house
<01004>_.
2:1
Now the days
<03117>
of David
<01732>
drew nigh
<07126> (8799)
that he should die
<04191> (8800)_;
and he charged
<06680> (8762)
Solomon
<08010>
his son
<01121>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
2:2
I go
<01980> (8802)
the way
<01870>
of all the earth
<0776>_:
be thou strong
<02388> (8804)
therefore, and shew thyself a man
<0376>_;
2:3
And keep
<08104> (8804)
the charge
<04931>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
to walk
<03212> (8800)
in his ways
<01870>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
his statutes
<02708>_,
and his commandments
<04687>_,
and his judgments
<04941>_,
and his testimonies
<05715>_,
as it is written
<03789> (8803)
in the law
<08451>
of Moses
<04872>_,
that thou mayest prosper
<07919> (8686)
in all that thou doest
<06213> (8799)_,
and whithersoever thou turnest
<06437> (8799)
thyself: {prosper: or, do wisely}
2:4
That the LORD
<03068>
may continue
<06965> (8686)
his word
<01697>
which he spake
<01696> (8765)
concerning me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
If thy children
<01121>
take heed
<08104> (8799)
to their way
<01870>_,
to walk
<03212> (8800)
before
<06440>
me in truth
<0571>
with all their heart
<03824>
and with all their soul
<05315>_,
there shall not fail
<03772> (8735)
thee (said
<0559> (8800)
he) a man
<0376>
on the throne
<03678>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{fail...: Heb. be cut off from thee from the throne}
2:5
Moreover thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
also what Joab
<03097>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>
did
<06213> (8804)
to me, [and] what he did
<06213> (8804)
to the two
<08147>
captains
<08269>
of the hosts
<06635>
of Israel
<03478>_,
unto Abner
<074>
the son
<01121>
of Ner
<05369>_,
and unto Amasa
<06021>
the son
<01121>
of Jether
<03500>_,
whom he slew
<02026> (8799)_,
and shed
<07760> (8799)
the blood
<01818>
of war
<04421>
in peace
<07965>_,
and put
<05414> (8799)
the blood
<01818>
of war
<04421>
upon his girdle
<02290>
that [was] about his loins
<04975>_,
and in his shoes
<05275>
that [were] on his feet
<07272>_.
{shed: Heb. put}
2:6
Do
<06213> (8804)
therefore according to thy wisdom
<02451>_,
and let not his hoar head
<07872>
go down
<03381> (8686)
to the grave
<07585>
in peace
<07965>_.
2:7
But shew
<06213> (8799)
kindness
<02617>
unto the sons
<01121>
of Barzillai
<01271>
the Gileadite
<01569>_,
and let them be of those that eat
<0398> (8802)
at thy table
<07979>_:
for so they came
<07126> (8804)
to me when I fled
<01272> (8800)
because
<06440>
of Absalom
<053>
thy brother
<0251>_.
2:8
And, behold, [thou hast] with thee Shimei
<08096>
the son
<01121>
of Gera
<01617>_,
a Benjamite
<01145>
of Bahurim
<0980>_,
which cursed
<07043> (8765)
me with a grievous
<04834> (8737)
curse
<07045>
in the day
<03117>
when I went
<03212> (8800)
to Mahanaim
<04266>_:
but he came down
<03381> (8804)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
me at Jordan
<03383>_,
and I sware
<07650> (8735)
to him by the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I will not put thee to death
<04191> (8686)
with the sword
<02719>_.
{grievous: Heb. strong}
2:9
Now therefore hold him not guiltless
<05352> (8762)_:
for thou [art] a wise
<02450>
man
<0376>_,
and knowest
<03045> (8804)
what thou oughtest to do
<06213> (8799)
unto him; but his hoar head
<07872>
bring thou down
<03381> (8689)
to the grave
<07585>
with blood
<01818>_.
2:10
So David
<01732>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_.
2:11
And the days
<03117>
that David
<01732>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
over Israel
<03478>
[were] forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_:
seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
he in Hebron
<02275>_,
and thirty
<07970>
and three
<07969>
years
<08141>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
he in Jerusalem
<03389>_.
2:12
Then sat
<03427> (8804)
Solomon
<08010>
upon the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_;
and his kingdom
<04438>
was established
<03559> (8735)
greatly
<03966>_.
2:13
And Adonijah
<0138>
the son
<01121>
of Haggith
<02294>
came
<0935> (8799)
to Bathsheba
<01339>
the mother
<0517>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
Comest
<0935> (8800)
thou peaceably
<07965>_?
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Peaceably
<07965>_.
2:14
He said
<0559> (8799)
moreover, I have somewhat to say
<01697>
unto thee. And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
Say on
<01696> (8761)_.
2:15
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
that the kingdom
<04410>
was mine, and [that] all Israel
<03478>
set
<07760> (8804)
their faces
<06440>
on me, that I should reign
<04427> (8800)_:
howbeit the kingdom
<04410>
is turned about
<05437> (8735)_,
and is become my brother's
<0251>_:
for it was his from the LORD
<03068>_.
2:16
And now I ask
<07592> (8802)
one
<0259>
petition
<07596>
of thee, deny
<07725> (8686)
me
<06440>
not. And she said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Say on
<01696> (8761)_.
{deny...: Heb. turn not away my face}
2:17
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Speak
<0559> (8798)_,
I pray thee, unto Solomon
<08010>
the king
<04428>_,
(for he will not say
<07725> (0)
thee
<06440>
nay
<07725> (8686),)
that he give
<05414> (8799)
me Abishag
<049>
the Shunammite
<07767>
to wife
<0802>_.
2:18
And Bathsheba
<01339>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Well
<02896>_;
I will speak
<01696> (8762)
for thee unto the king
<04428>_.
2:19
Bathsheba
<01339>
therefore went
<0935> (8799)
unto king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_,
to speak
<01696> (8763)
unto him for Adonijah
<0138>_.
And the king
<04428>
rose up
<06965> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
her, and bowed
<07812> (8691)
himself unto her, and sat down
<03427> (8799)
on his throne
<03678>_,
and caused a seat
<03678>
to be set
<07760> (8799)
for the king's
<04428>
mother
<0517>_;
and she sat
<03427> (8799)
on his right hand
<03225>_.
2:20
Then she said
<0559> (8799)_,
I desire
<07592> (8802)
one
<0259>
small
<06996>
petition
<07596>
of thee; [I pray thee], say
<07725> (0)
me
<06440>
not nay
<07725> (8686)_.
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Ask on
<07592> (8798)_,
my mother
<0517>_:
for I will not say
<07725> (0)
thee
<06440>
nay
<07725> (8686)_.
2:21
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
Let Abishag
<049>
the Shunammite
<07767>
be given
<05414> (8714)
to Adonijah
<0138>
thy brother
<0251>
to wife
<0802>_.
2:22
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto his mother
<0517>_,
And why dost thou ask
<07592> (8802)
Abishag
<049>
the Shunammite
<07767>
for Adonijah
<0138>_?
ask
<07592> (8798)
for him the kingdom
<04410>
also; for he [is] mine elder
<01419>
brother
<0251>_;
even for him, and for Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>_,
and for Joab
<03097>
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>_.
2:23
Then king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
sware
<07650> (8735)
by the LORD
<03068>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
God
<0430>
do
<06213> (8799)
so to me, and more also
<03254> (8686)_,
if Adonijah
<0138>
have not spoken
<01696> (8765)
this word
<01697>
against his own life
<05315>_.
2:24
Now therefore, [as] the LORD
<03068>
liveth
<02416>_,
which hath established
<03559> (8689)
me, and set
<03427> (8686)
me on the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
and who hath made
<06213> (8804)
me an house
<01004>_,
as he promised
<01696> (8765)_,
Adonijah
<0138>
shall be put to death
<04191> (8714)
this day
<03117>_.
2:25
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)
by the hand
<03027>
of Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_;
and he fell
<06293> (8799)
upon him that he died
<04191> (8799)_.
2:26
And unto Abiathar
<054>
the priest
<03548>
said
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
Get
<03212> (8798)
thee to Anathoth
<06068>_,
unto thine own fields
<07704>_;
for thou [art] worthy
<0376>
of death
<04194>_:
but I will not at this time
<03117>
put thee to death
<04191> (8686)_,
because thou barest
<05375> (8804)
the ark
<0727>
of the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
before
<06440>
David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
and because thou hast been afflicted
<06031> (8694)
in all wherein my father
<01>
was afflicted
<06031> (8694)_.
{worthy...: Heb. a man of death}
2:27
So Solomon
<08010>
thrust out
<01644> (8762)
Abiathar
<054>
from being priest
<03548>
unto the LORD
<03068>_;
that he might fulfil
<04390> (8763)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which he spake
<01696> (8765)
concerning the house
<01004>
of Eli
<05941>
in Shiloh
<07887>_.
2:28
Then tidings
<08052>
came
<0935> (8804)
to Joab
<03097>_:
for Joab
<03097>
had turned
<05186> (8804)
after
<0310>
Adonijah
<0138>_,
though he turned
<05186> (8804)
not after
<0310>
Absalom
<053>_.
And Joab
<03097>
fled
<05127> (8799)
unto the tabernacle
<0168>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and caught hold
<02388> (8686)
on the horns
<07161>
of the altar
<04196>_.
2:29
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
that Joab
<03097>
was fled
<05127> (8804)
unto the tabernacle
<0168>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
and, behold, [he is] by
<0681>
the altar
<04196>_.
Then Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)
Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<03212> (8798)_,
fall
<06293> (8798)
upon him.
2:30
And Benaiah
<01141>
came
<0935> (8799)
to the tabernacle
<0168>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the king
<04428>_,
Come forth
<03318> (8798)_.
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Nay; but I will die
<04191> (8799)
here. And Benaiah
<01141>
brought
<07725> (0)
the king
<04428>
word
<01697>
again
<07725> (8686)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus said
<01696> (8765)
Joab
<03097>_,
and thus he answered
<06030> (8804)
me.
2:31
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Do
<06213> (8798)
as he hath said
<01696> (8765)_,
and fall
<06293> (8798)
upon him, and bury
<06912> (8804)
him; that thou mayest take away
<05493> (8689)
the innocent
<02600>
blood
<01818>_,
which Joab
<03097>
shed
<08210> (8804)_,
from me, and from the house
<01004>
of my father
<01>_.
2:32
And the LORD
<03068>
shall return
<07725> (8689)
his blood
<01818>
upon his own head
<07218>_,
who fell
<06293> (8804)
upon two
<08147>
men
<0582>
more righteous
<06662>
and better
<02896>
than he, and slew
<02026> (8799)
them with the sword
<02719>_,
my father
<01>
David
<01732>
not knowing
<03045> (8804)
[thereof, to wit], Abner
<074>
the son
<01121>
of Ner
<05369>_,
captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and Amasa
<06021>
the son
<01121>
of Jether
<03500>_,
captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
of Judah
<03063>_.
2:33
Their blood
<01818>
shall therefore return
<07725> (8804)
upon the head
<07218>
of Joab
<03097>_,
and upon the head
<07218>
of his seed
<02233>
for ever
<05769>_:
but upon David
<01732>_,
and upon his seed
<02233>_,
and upon his house
<01004>_,
and upon his throne
<03678>_,
shall there be peace
<07965>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>
from the LORD
<03068>_.
2:34
So Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
went up
<05927> (8799)_,
and fell
<06293> (8799)
upon him, and slew
<04191> (8686)
him: and he was buried
<06912> (8735)
in his own house
<01004>
in the wilderness
<04057>_.
2:35
And the king
<04428>
put
<05414> (8799)
Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>
in his room over the host
<06635>_:
and Zadok
<06659>
the priest
<03548>
did the king
<04428>
put
<05414> (8804)
in the room of Abiathar
<054>_.
2:36
And the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8799)
and called
<07121> (8799)
for Shimei
<08096>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Build
<01129> (8798)
thee an house
<01004>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and dwell
<03427> (8804)
there, and go not forth
<03318> (8799)
thence any whither
<0575>_.
2:37
For it shall be, [that] on the day
<03117>
thou goest out
<03318> (8800)_,
and passest over
<05674> (8804)
the brook
<05158>
Kidron
<06939>_,
thou shalt know
<03045> (8799)
for certain
<03045> (8800)
that thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_:
thy blood
<01818>
shall be upon thine own head
<07218>_.
2:38
And Shimei
<08096>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto the king
<04428>_,
The saying
<01697>
[is] good
<02896>_:
as my lord
<0113>
the king
<04428>
hath said
<01696> (8765)_,
so will thy servant
<05650>
do
<06213> (8799)_.
And Shimei
<08096>
dwelt
<03427> (8799)
in Jerusalem
<03389>
many
<07227>
days
<03117>_.
2:39
And it came to pass at the end
<07093>
of three
<07969>
years
<08141>_,
that two
<08147>
of the servants
<05650>
of Shimei
<08096>
ran away
<01272> (8799)
unto Achish
<0397>
son
<01121>
of Maachah
<04601>
king
<04428>
of Gath
<01661>_.
And they told
<05046> (8686)
Shimei
<08096>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Behold, thy servants
<05650>
[be] in Gath
<01661>_.
2:40
And Shimei
<08096>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and saddled
<02280> (8799)
his ass
<02543>_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
to Gath
<01661>
to Achish
<0397>
to seek
<01245> (8763)
his servants
<05650>_:
and Shimei
<08096>
went
<03212> (8799)_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
his servants
<05650>
from Gath
<01661>_.
2:41
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
Solomon
<08010>
that Shimei
<08096>
had gone
<01980> (8804)
from Jerusalem
<03389>
to Gath
<01661>_,
and was come again
<07725> (8799)_.
2:42
And the king
<04428>
sent
<07971> (8799)
and called
<07121> (8799)
for Shimei
<08096>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Did I not make thee to swear
<07650> (8689)
by the LORD
<03068>_,
and protested
<05749> (8686)
unto thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Know
<03045> (8799)
for a certain
<03045> (8800)_,
on the day
<03117>
thou goest out
<03318> (8800)_,
and walkest
<01980> (8804)
abroad any whither
<0575>_,
that thou shalt surely
<04191> (8800)
die
<04191> (8799)_?
and thou saidst
<0559> (8799)
unto me, The word
<01697>
[that] I have heard
<08085> (8804)
[is] good
<02896>_.
2:43
Why then hast thou not kept
<08104> (8804)
the oath
<07621>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the commandment
<04687>
that I have charged
<06680> (8765)
thee with?
2:44
The king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)
moreover to Shimei
<08096>_,
Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
all the wickedness
<07451>
which thine heart
<03824>
is privy to
<03045> (8804)_,
that thou didst
<06213> (8804)
to David
<01732>
my father
<01>_:
therefore the LORD
<03068>
shall return
<07725> (8689)
thy wickedness
<07451>
upon thine own head
<07218>_;
2:45
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
[shall be] blessed
<01288> (8803)_,
and the throne
<03678>
of David
<01732>
shall be established
<03559> (8737)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_.
2:46
So the king
<04428>
commanded
<06680> (8762)
Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_;
which went out
<03318> (8799)_,
and fell
<06293> (8799)
upon him, that he died
<04191> (8799)_.
And the kingdom
<04467>
was established
<03559> (8738)
in the hand
<03027>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
3:1
And Solomon
<08010>
made affinity
<02859> (8691)
with Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
her into the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
until he had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of building
<01129> (8800)
his own house
<01004>_,
and the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>
round about
<05439>_.
3:2
Only the people
<05971>
sacrificed
<02076> (8764)
in high places
<01116>_,
because there was no house
<01004>
built
<01129> (8738)
unto the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
until those days
<03117>_.
3:3
And Solomon
<08010>
loved
<0157> (8799)
the LORD
<03068>_,
walking
<03212> (8800)
in the statutes
<02708>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_:
only he sacrificed
<02076> (8764)
and burnt incense
<06999> (8688)
in high places
<01116>_.
3:4
And the king
<04428>
went
<03212> (8799)
to Gibeon
<01391>
to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)
there; for that
<01931>
[was] the great
<01419>
high place
<01116>_:
a thousand
<0505>
burnt offerings
<05930>
did Solomon
<08010>
offer
<05927> (8686)
upon that altar
<04196>_.
3:5
In Gibeon
<01391>
the LORD
<03068>
appeared
<07200> (8738)
to Solomon
<08010>
in a dream
<02472>
by night
<03915>_:
and God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Ask
<07592> (8798)
what I shall give
<05414> (8799)
thee.
3:6
And Solomon
<08010>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)
unto thy servant
<05650>
David
<01732>
my father
<01>
great
<01419>
mercy
<02617>_,
according as he walked
<01980> (8804)
before
<06440>
thee in truth
<0571>_,
and in righteousness
<06666>_,
and in uprightness
<03483>
of heart
<03824>
with thee; and thou hast kept
<08104> (8799)
for him this great
<01419>
kindness
<02617>_,
that thou hast given
<05414> (8799)
him a son
<01121>
to sit
<03427> (8802)
on his throne
<03678>_,
as [it is] this day
<03117>_.
{mercy: or, bounty}
3:7
And now, O LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
thou hast made thy servant
<05650>
king
<04427> (8689)
instead of David
<01732>
my father
<01>_:
and I [am but] a little
<06996>
child
<05288>_:
I know
<03045> (8799)
not [how] to go out
<03318> (8800)
or come in
<0935> (8800)_.
3:8
And thy servant
<05650>
[is] in the midst
<08432>
of thy people
<05971>
which thou hast chosen
<0977> (8804)_,
a great
<07227>
people
<05971>_,
that cannot be numbered
<04487> (8735)
nor counted
<05608> (8735)
for multitude
<07230>_.
3:9
Give
<05414> (8804)
therefore thy servant
<05650>
an understanding
<08085> (8802)
heart
<03820>
to judge
<08199> (8800)
thy people
<05971>_,
that I may discern
<0995> (8687)
between good
<02896>
and bad
<07451>_:
for who is able
<03201> (8799)
to judge
<08199> (8800)
this thy so great
<03515>
a people
<05971>_?
{understanding: Heb. hearing}
3:10
And the speech
<01697>
pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>
the Lord
<0136>_,
that Solomon
<08010>
had asked
<07592> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_.
3:11
And God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Because thou hast asked
<07592> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_,
and hast not asked
<07592> (8804)
for thyself long
<07227>
life
<03117>_;
neither hast asked
<07592> (8804)
riches
<06239>
for thyself, nor hast asked
<07592> (8804)
the life
<05315>
of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_;
but hast asked
<07592> (8804)
for thyself understanding
<0995> (8687)
to discern
<08085> (8800)
judgment
<04941>_;
{long life: Heb. many days} {discern: Heb. hear}
3:12
Behold, I have done
<06213> (8804)
according to thy words
<01697>_:
lo, I have given
<05414> (8804)
thee a wise
<02450>
and an understanding
<0995> (8737)
heart
<03820>_;
so that there was none like thee before
<06440>
thee, neither after
<0310>
thee shall any arise
<06965> (8799)
like unto thee.
3:13
And I have also given
<05414> (8804)
thee that which thou hast not asked
<07592> (8804)_,
both riches
<06239>_,
and honour
<03519>_:
so that there shall not be any
<0376>
among the kings
<04428>
like unto thee all thy days
<03117>_.
{shall...: or, hath not been}
3:14
And if thou wilt walk
<03212> (8799)
in my ways
<01870>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
my statutes
<02706>
and my commandments
<04687>_,
as thy father
<01>
David
<01732>
did walk
<01980> (8804)_,
then I will lengthen
<0748> (8689)
thy days
<03117>_.
3:15
And Solomon
<08010>
awoke
<03364> (8799)_;
and, behold, [it was] a dream
<02472>_.
And he came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and offered up
<05927> (8686)
burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and offered
<06213> (8799)
peace offerings
<08002>_,
and made
<06213> (8799)
a feast
<04960>
to all his servants
<05650>_.
3:16
Then came
<0935> (8799)
there two
<08147>
women
<0802>_,
[that were] harlots
<02181> (8802)_,
unto the king
<04428>_,
and stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
him.
3:17
And the one
<0259>
woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
O
<0994>
my lord
<0113>_,
I and this woman
<0802>
dwell
<03427> (8802)
in one
<0259>
house
<01004>_;
and I was delivered of a child
<03205> (8799)
with her in the house
<01004>_.
3:18
And it came to pass the third
<07992>
day
<03117>
after that I was delivered
<03205> (8800)_,
that this woman
<0802>
was delivered
<03205> (8799)
also: and we [were] together
<03162>_;
[there was] no stranger
<02114> (8801)
with us in the house
<01004>_,
save
<02108>
we two
<08147>
in the house
<01004>_.
3:19
And this woman's
<0802>
child
<01121>
died
<04191> (8799)
in the night
<03915>_;
because she overlaid
<07901> (8804)
it.
3:20
And she arose
<06965> (8799)
at midnight
<08432> <03915>_,
and took
<03947> (8799)
my son
<01121>
from beside
<0681>
me, while thine handmaid
<0519>
slept
<03463>_,
and laid
<07901> (8686)
it in her bosom
<02436>_,
and laid
<07901> (8689)
her dead
<04191> (8801)
child
<01121>
in my bosom
<02436>_.
3:21
And when I rose
<06965> (8799)
in the morning
<01242>
to give my child
<01121>
suck
<03243> (8687)_,
behold, it was dead
<04191> (8804)_:
but when I had considered
<0995> (8709)
it in the morning
<01242>_,
behold, it was not my son
<01121>_,
which I did bear
<03205> (8804)_.
3:22
And the other
<0312>
woman
<0802>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Nay; but the living
<02416>
[is] my son
<01121>_,
and the dead
<04191> (8801)
[is] thy son
<01121>_.
And this said
<0559> (8802)_,
No; but the dead
<04191> (8801)
[is] thy son
<01121>_,
and the living
<02416>
[is] my son
<01121>_.
Thus they spake
<01696> (8762)
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
3:23
Then said
<0559> (8799)
the king
<04428>_,
The one
<02063>
saith
<0559> (8802)_,
This [is] my son
<01121>
that liveth
<02416>_,
and thy son
<01121>
[is] the dead
<04191> (8801)_:
and the other
<02063>
saith
<0559> (8802)_,
Nay; but thy son
<01121>
[is] the dead
<04191> (8801)_,
and my son
<01121>
[is] the living
<02416>_.
3:24
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Bring
<03947> (8798)
me a sword
<02719>_.
And they brought
<0935> (8686)
a sword
<02719>
before
<06440>
the king
<04428>_.
3:25
And the king
<04428>
said
<0559> (8799)_,
Divide
<01504> (8798)
the living
<02416>
child
<03206>
in two
<08147>_,
and give
<05414> (8798)
half
<02677>
to the one
<0259>_,
and half
<02677>
to the other
<0259>_.
3:26
Then spake
<0559> (8799)
the woman
<0802>
whose the living
<02416>
child
<01121>
[was] unto the king
<04428>_,
for her bowels
<07356>
yearned
<03648> (8738)
upon her son
<01121>_,
and she said
<0559> (8799)_,
O
<0994>
my lord
<0113>_,
give
<05414> (8798)
her the living
<02416>
child
<03205> (8803)_,
and in no wise
<04191> (8687)
slay
<04191> (8686)
it. But the other said
<0559> (8802)_,
Let it be neither mine nor thine, [but] divide
<01504> (8798)
[it]. {yearned: Heb. were hot}
3:27
Then the king
<04428>
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Give
<05414> (8798)
her the living
<02416>
child
<03205> (8803)_,
and in no wise
<04191> (8687)
slay
<04191> (8686)
it: she [is] the mother
<0517>
thereof.
3:28
And all Israel
<03478>
heard
<08085> (8799)
of the judgment
<04941>
which the king
<04428>
had judged
<08199> (8804)_;
and they feared
<03372> (8799)
the king
<06440>_:
for they saw
<07200> (8804)
that the wisdom
<02451>
of God
<0430>
[was] in him
<07130>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
judgment
<04941>_.
{in him: Heb. in the midst of him}
4:1
So king

<04428>
Solomon's
<08010>
table
<07979>_,
every man
<0376>
in his month
<02320>_:
they lacked
<05737> (8762)
nothing
<01697>_.
4:28

also and straw

where [the officers] were, every man
<0376>
according to his charge
<04941>_.
{dromedaries: or, mules, or, swift beasts}
4:29
And God
<0430>
gave
<05414> (8799)
Solomon
<08010>
wisdom
<02451>
and understanding
<08394>
exceeding
<03966>
much
<07235> (8687)_,
and largeness
<07341>
of heart
<03820>_,
even as the sand
<02344>
that [is] on the sea
<03220>
shore
<08193>_.
4:30
And Solomon's
<08010>
wisdom
<02451>
excelled
<07235> (8799)
the wisdom
<02451>
of all the children
<01121>
of the east country
<06924>_,
and all the wisdom
<02451>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
4:31
For he was wiser
<02449> (8799)
than all men
<0120>_;
than Ethan
<0387>
the Ezrahite
<0250>_,
and Heman
<01968>_,
and Chalcol
<03633>_,
and Darda
<01862>_,
the sons
<01121>
of Mahol
<04235>_:
and his fame
<08034>
was in all nations
<01471>
round about
<05439>_.
4:32
And he spake
<01696> (8762)
three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
proverbs
<04912>_:
and his songs
<07892>
were a thousand
<0505>
and five
<02568>_.
4:33
And he spake
<01696> (8762)
of trees
<06086>_,
from the cedar tree
<0730>
that [is] in Lebanon
<03844>
even unto the hyssop
<0231>
that springeth out
<03318> (8802)
of the wall
<07023>_:
he spake
<01696> (8762)
also of beasts
<0929>_,
and of fowl
<05775>_,
and of creeping things
<07431>_,
and of fishes
<01709>_.
4:34
And there came
<0935> (8799)
of all people
<05971>
to hear
<08085> (8800)
the wisdom
<02451>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
from all kings
<04428>
of the earth
<0776>_,
which had heard
<08085> (8804)
of his wisdom
<02451>_.
5:1
And Hiram
<02438>
king
<04428>
of Tyre
<06865>
sent
<07971> (8799)
his servants
<05650>
unto Solomon
<08010>_;
for he had heard
<08085> (8804)
that they had anointed
<04886> (8804)
him king
<04428>
in the room of his father
<01>_:
for Hiram
<02438>
was ever
<03117>
a lover
<0157> (8802)
of David
<01732>_.
{Hiram: also called, Huram}
5:2
And Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Hiram
<02438>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
5:3
Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
how that David
<01732>
my father
<01>
could
<03201> (8804)
not build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
unto the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>
for
<06440>
the wars
<04421>
which were about him on every side
<05437> (8804)_,
until the LORD
<03068>
put
<05414> (8800)
them under the soles
<03709>
of his feet
<07272>_.
5:4
But now the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>
hath given me rest
<05117> (8689)
on every side
<05439>_,
[so that there is] neither adversary
<07854>
nor evil
<07451>
occurrent
<06294>_.
5:5
And, behold, I purpose
<0559> (8802)
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
unto the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
as the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thy son
<01121>_,
whom I will set
<05414> (8799)
upon thy throne
<03678>
in thy room, he shall build
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
unto my name
<08034>_.
{purpose: Heb. say}
5:6
Now therefore command
<06680> (8761)
thou that they hew
<03772> (8799)
me cedar trees
<0730>
out of Lebanon
<03844>_;
and my servants
<05650>
shall be with thy servants
<05650>_:
and unto thee will I give
<05414> (8799)
hire
<07939>
for thy servants
<05650>
according to all that thou shalt appoint
<0559> (8799)_:
for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
that [there is] not among us any
<0376>
that can skill
<03045> (8802)
to hew
<03772> (8800)
timber
<06086>
like unto the Sidonians
<06722>_.
{appoint: Heb. say}
5:7
And it came to pass, when Hiram
<02438>
heard
<08085> (8800)
the words
<01697>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
that he rejoiced
<08055> (8799)
greatly
<03966>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>
this day
<03117>_,
which hath given
<05414> (8804)
unto David
<01732>
a wise
<02450>
son
<01121>
over this great
<07227>
people
<05971>_.
5:8
And Hiram
<02438>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I have considered
<08085> (8804)
the things which thou sentest
<07971> (8804)
to me for: [and] I will do
<06213> (8799)
all thy desire
<02656>
concerning timber
<06086>
of cedar
<0730>_,
and concerning timber
<06086>
of fir
<01265>_.
{considered: Heb. heard}
5:9
My servants
<05650>
shall bring [them] down
<03381> (8686)
from Lebanon
<03844>
unto the sea
<03220>_:
and I will convey
<07760> (8799)
them by sea
<03220>
in floats
<01702>
unto the place
<04725>
that thou shalt appoint
<07971> (8799)
me, and will cause them to be discharged
<05310> (8765)
there, and thou shalt receive
<05375> (8799)
[them]: and thou shalt accomplish
<06213> (8799)
my desire
<02656>_,
in giving
<05414> (8800)
food
<03899>
for my household
<01004>_.
{appoint: Heb. send}
5:10
So Hiram
<02438>
gave
<05414> (8802)
Solomon
<08010>
cedar
<0730>
trees
<06086>
and fir
<01265>
trees
<06086>
[according to] all his desire
<02656>_.
5:11
And Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8804)
Hiram
<02438>
twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
measures
<03734>
of wheat
<02406>
[for] food
<04361>
to his household
<01004>_,
and twenty
<06242>
measures
<03734>
of pure
<03795>
oil
<08081>_:
thus gave
<05414> (8799)
Solomon
<08010>
to Hiram
<02438>
year
<08141>
by year
<08141>_.
{measures: Heb. cors}
5:12
And the LORD
<03068>
gave
<05414> (8804)
Solomon
<08010>
wisdom
<02451>_,
as he promised
<01696> (8765)
him: and there was peace
<07965>
between Hiram
<02438>
and Solomon
<08010>_;
and they two
<08147> (0)
made
<03772> (8799)
a league
<01285>
together
<08147>_.
5:13
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
raised
<05927> (8686)
a levy
<04522>
out of all Israel
<03478>_;
and the levy
<04522>
was thirty
<07970>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>_.
{levy: Heb. tribute of men}
5:14
And he sent
<07971> (8799)
them to Lebanon
<03844>_,
ten
<06235>
thousand
<0505>
a month
<02320>
by courses
<02487>_:
a month
<02320>
they were in Lebanon
<03844>_,
[and] two
<08147>
months
<02320>
at home
<01004>_:
and Adoniram
<0141>
[was] over the levy
<04522>_.
5:15
And Solomon
<08010>
had threescore and ten
<07657>
thousand
<0505>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
burdens
<05449>_,
and fourscore
<08084>
thousand
<0505>
hewers
<02672> (8802)
in the mountains
<02022>_;
5:16
Beside the chief
<08269>
of Solomon's
<08010>
officers
<05324> (8737)
which [were] over the work
<04399>_,
three
<07969>
thousand
<0505>
and three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>_,
which ruled
<07287> (8802)
over the people
<05971>
that wrought
<06213> (8802)
in the work
<04399>_.
5:17
And the king
<04428>
commanded
<06680> (8762)_,
and they brought
<05265> (8686)
great
<01419>
stones
<068>_,
costly
<03368>
stones
<068>_,
[and] hewed
<01496>
stones
<068>_,
to lay the foundation
<03245> (8763)
of the house
<01004>_.
5:18
And Solomon's
<08010>
builders
<01129> (8802)
and Hiram's
<02438>
builders
<01129> (8802)
did hew
<06458> (8799)
[them], and the stonesquarers
<01382>_:
so they prepared
<03559> (8686)
timber
<06086>
and stones
<068>
to build
<01129> (8800)
the house
<01004>_.
{stonesquares: or, Giblites}
6:1
And it came to pass in the four
<0702>
hundred
<03967> <08141>
and eightieth
<08084>
year
<08141>
after the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
were come out
<03318> (8800)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
in the fourth
<07243>
year
<08141>
of Solomon's
<08010>
reign
<04427> (8800)
over Israel
<03478>_,
in the month
<02320>
Zif
<02099>_,
which [is] the second
<08145>
month
<02320>_,
that he began to build
<01129> (8799)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{began...: Heb. built}
6:2
And the house
<01004>
which king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
built
<01129> (8804)
for the LORD
<03068>_,
the length
<0753>
thereof [was] threescore
<08346>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the breadth
<07341>
thereof twenty
<06242>
[cubits], and the height
<06967>
thereof thirty
<07970>
cubits
<0520>_.
6:3
And the porch
<0197>
before
<06440>
the temple
<01964>
of the house
<01004>_,
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
[was] the length
<0753>
thereof, according to the breadth
<07341>
of the house
<01004>_;
[and] ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>
[was] the breadth
<07341>
thereof before the house
<01004>_.
6:4
And for the house
<01004>
he made
<06213> (8799)
windows
<02474>
of narrow
<0331> (8801)
lights
<08261>_.
{of...: or, broad within, and narrow without: or, skewed and closed}
6:5
And against the wall
<07023>
of the house
<01004>
he built
<01129> (8799)
chambers
<03326> (8675) <03326>
round about
<05439>_,
[against] the walls
<07023>
of the house
<01004>
round about
<05439>_,
[both] of the temple
<01964>
and of the oracle
<01687>_:
and he made
<06213> (8799)
chambers
<06763>
round about
<05439>_:
{against the wall: or, upon, or, joining to the wall} {built chambers: Heb. built floors} {made chambers: Heb. made ribs}
6:6
The nethermost
<08481>
chamber
<03326> (8675) <03326>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
broad
<07341>_,
and the middle
<08484>
[was] six
<08337>
cubits
<0520>
broad
<07341>_,
and the third
<07992>
[was] seven
<07651>
cubits
<0520>
broad
<07341>_:
for without [in the wall] of
<02351>
the house
<01004>
he made
<05414> (8804)
narrowed rests
<04052>
round about
<05439>_,
that [the beams] should not be fastened
<0270> (8800)
in the walls
<07023>
of the house
<01004>_.
{narrowed...: Heb. narrowings, or, rebatements}
6:7
And the house
<01004>_,
when it was in building
<01129> (8736)_,
was built
<01129> (8738)
of stone
<068>
made ready
<08003>
before it was brought
<04551>
thither: so that there was neither hammer
<04717>
nor axe
<01631>
[nor] any tool
<03627>
of iron
<01270>
heard
<08085> (8738)
in the house
<01004>_,
while it was in building
<01129> (8736)_.
6:8
The door
<06607>
for the middle
<08484>
chamber
<06763>
[was] in the right
<03233>
side
<03802>
of the house
<01004>_:
and they went up
<05927> (8799)
with winding stairs
<03883>
into the middle
<08484>
[chamber], and out of the middle
<08484>
into the third
<07992>_.
{side: Heb. shoulder}
6:9
So he built
<01129> (8799)
the house
<01004>_,
and finished
<03615> (8762)
it; and covered
<05603> (8799)
the house
<01004>
with beams
<01356>
and boards
<07713>
of cedar
<0730>_.
{with...: or, the vaultbeams and the panellings with cedar}
6:10
And [then] he built
<01129> (8799)
chambers
<03326> (8675) <03326>
against all the house
<01004>_,
five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
high
<06967>_:
and they rested
<0270> (8799)
on the house
<01004>
[with] timber
<06086>
of cedar
<0730>_.
6:11
And the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Solomon
<08010>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
6:12
[Concerning] this house
<01004>
which thou art in building
<01129> (8802)_,
if thou wilt walk
<03212> (8799)
in my statutes
<02708>_,
and execute
<06213> (8799)
my judgments
<04941>_,
and keep
<08104> (8804)
all my commandments
<04687>
to walk
<03212> (8800)
in them; then will I perform
<06965> (8689)
my word
<01697>
with thee, which I spake
<01696> (8765)
unto David
<01732>
thy father
<01>_:
6:13
And I will dwell
<07931> (8804)
among
<08432>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and will not forsake
<05800> (8799)
my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_.
6:14
So Solomon
<08010>
built
<01129> (8799)
the house
<01004>_,
and finished
<03615> (8762)
it.
6:15
And he built
<01129> (8799)
the walls
<07023>
of the house
<01004>
within
<01004>
with boards
<06763>
of cedar
<0730>_,
both the floor
<07172>
of the house
<01004>_,
and the walls
<07023>
of the cieling
<05604>_:
[and] he covered
<06823> (8765)
[them] on the inside
<01004>
with wood
<06086>_,
and covered
<06823> (8762)
the floor
<07172>
of the house
<01004>
with planks
<06763>
of fir
<01265>_.
{both...: or, from the floor of the house unto the walls, etc}
6:16
And he built
<01129> (8799)
twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
on the sides
<03411>
of the house
<01004>_,
both
<04480>
the floor
<07172>
and the walls
<07023>
with boards
<06763>
of cedar
<0730>_:
he even built
<01129> (8799)
[them] for it within
<01004>_,
[even] for the oracle
<01687>_,
[even] for the most
<06944>
holy
<06944>
[place].
6:17
And the house
<01004>_,
that [is], the temple
<01964>
before
<03942>
it, was forty
<0705>
cubits
<0520>
[long].
6:18
And the cedar
<0730>
of the house
<01004>
within
<06441>
[was] carved
<04734>
with knops
<06497>
and open
<06362> (8803)
flowers
<06731>_:
all [was] cedar
<0730>_;
there was no stone
<068>
seen
<07200> (8738)_.
{knops: or, gourds} {open: Heb. openings of}
6:19
And the oracle
<01687>
he prepared
<03559> (8689)
in
<08432>
the house
<01004>
within
<06441>_,
to set
<05414> (8800)
there the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
6:20
And the oracle
<01687>
in the forepart
<06440>
[was] twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
in length
<0753>_,
and twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
in breadth
<07341>_,
and twenty
<06242>
cubits
<0520>
in the height
<06967>
thereof: and he overlaid
<06823> (8762)
it with pure
<05462> (8803)
gold
<02091>_;
and [so] covered
<06823> (8762)
the altar
<04196>
[which was of] cedar
<0730>_.
{pure: Heb. shut up}
6:21
So Solomon
<08010>
overlaid
<06823> (8762)
the house
<01004>
within
<06441>
with pure
<05462> (8803)
gold
<02091>_:
and he made a partition
<05674> (8762)
by the chains
<07572> (8675) <07572>
of gold
<02091>
before
<06440>
the oracle
<01687>_;
and he overlaid
<06823> (8762)
it with gold
<02091>_.
6:22
And the whole house
<01004>
he overlaid
<06823> (8765)
with gold
<02091>_,
until he had finished
<08552> (8800)
all the house
<01004>_:
also the whole altar
<04196>
that [was] by the oracle
<01687>
he overlaid
<06823> (8765)
with gold
<02091>_.
6:23
And within the oracle
<01687>
he made
<06213> (8799)
two
<08147>
cherubims
<03742>
[of] olive
<08081>
tree
<06086>_,
[each] ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>
high
<06967>_.
{olive: or, oily: Heb. trees of oil}
6:24
And five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
[was] the one
<0259>
wing
<03671>
of the cherub
<03742>_,
and five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>
the other
<08145>
wing
<03671>
of the cherub
<03742>_:
from the uttermost part
<07098>
of the one wing
<03671>
unto the uttermost part
<07098>
of the other
<03671>
[were] ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>_.
6:25
And the other
<08145>
cherub
<03742>
[was] ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>_:
both
<08147>
the cherubims
<03742>
[were] of one
<0259>
measure
<04060>
and one
<0259>
size
<07095>_.
6:26
The height
<06967>
of the one
<0259>
cherub
<03742>
[was] ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>_,
and so [was it] of the other
<08145>
cherub
<03742>_.
6:27
And he set
<05414> (8799)
the cherubims
<03742>
within
<08432>
the inner
<06442>
house
<01004>_:
and they stretched forth
<06566> (8799)
the wings
<03671>
of the cherubims
<03742>_,
so that the wing
<03671>
of the one
<0259>
touched
<05060> (8799)
the [one] wall
<07023>_,
and the wing
<03671>
of the other
<08145>
cherub
<03742>
touched
<05060> (8802)
the other
<08145>
wall
<07023>_;
and their wings
<03671>
touched
<05060> (8802)
one
<03671>
another
<03671>
in the midst
<08432>
of the house
<01004>_.
{they...: or, the cherubims stretched forth their wings}
6:28
And he overlaid
<06823> (8762)
the cherubims
<03742>
with gold
<02091>_.
6:29
And he carved
<07049> (8804)
all the walls
<07023>
of the house
<01004>
round about
<04524>
with carved
<06603>
figures
<04734>
of cherubims
<03742>
and palm trees
<08561>
and open
<06362> (8803)
flowers
<06731>_,
within
<06441>
and without
<02435>_.
{open flowers: Heb. openings of flowers}
6:30
And the floor
<07172>
of the house
<01004>
he overlaid
<06823> (8765)
with gold
<02091>_,
within
<06441>
and without
<02435>_.
6:31
And for the entering
<06607>
of the oracle
<01687>
he made
<06213> (8804)
doors
<01817>
[of] olive
<08081>
tree
<06086>_:
the lintel
<0352>
[and] side posts
<04201>
[were] a fifth part
<02549>
[of the wall]. {a fifth...: or, fivesquare}
6:32
The two
<08147>
doors
<01817>
also [were of] olive
<08081>
tree
<06086>_;
and he carved
<07049> (8804)
upon them carvings
<04734>
of cherubims
<03742>
and palm trees
<08561>
and open
<06362> (8803)
flowers
<06731>_,
and overlaid
<06823> (8765)
[them] with gold
<02091>_,
and spread
<07286> (8686)
gold
<02091>
upon the cherubims
<03742>_,
and upon the palm trees
<08561>_.
{two...: or, leaves of the doors} {open flowers: Heb. openings of flowers}
6:33
So also made
<06213> (8804)
he for the door
<06607>
of the temple
<01964>
posts
<04201>
[of] olive
<08081>
tree
<06086>_,
a fourth part
<07243>
[of the wall]. {a fourth...: or, foursquare}
6:34
And the two
<08147>
doors
<01817>
[were of] fir
<01265>
tree
<06086>_:
the two
<08147>
leaves
<06763>
of the one
<0259>
door
<01817>
[were] folding
<01550>_,
and the two
<08147>
leaves
<07050>
of the other
<08145>
door
<01817>
[were] folding
<01550>_.
6:35
And he carved
<07049> (8804)
[thereon] cherubims
<03742>
and palm trees
<08561>
and open
<06362> (8803)
flowers
<06731>_:
and covered
<06823> (8765)
[them] with gold
<02091>
fitted
<03474> (8794)
upon the carved work
<02707> (8794)_.
6:36
And he built
<01129> (8799)
the inner
<06442>
court
<02691>
with three
<07969>
rows
<02905>
of hewed stone
<01496>_,
and a row
<02905>
of cedar
<0730>
beams
<03773>_.
6:37
In the fourth
<07243>
year
<08141>
was the foundation
<03245> (0)
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
laid
<03245> (8795)_,
in the month
<03391>
Zif
<02099>_:
6:38
And in the eleventh
<0259> <06240>
year
<08141>_,
in the month
<03391>
Bul
<0945>_,
which [is] the eighth
<08066>
month
<02320>_,
was the house
<01004>
finished
<03615> (8804)
throughout all the parts
<01697>
thereof, and according to all the fashion
<04941>
of it. So was he seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
in building
<01129> (8799)
it. {through out...: or, with all the parts thereof, and with all the ordinances thereof}
7:1
But Solomon
<08010>
was building
<01129> (8804)
his own house
<01004>
thirteen
<07969> <06240>
years
<08141>_,
and he finished
<03615> (8762)
all his house
<01004>_.
7:2
He built
<01129> (8799)
also the house
<01004>
of the forest
<03293>
of Lebanon
<03844>_;
the length
<0753>
thereof [was] an hundred
<03967>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the breadth
<07341>
thereof fifty
<02572>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the height
<06967>
thereof thirty
<07970>
cubits
<0520>_,
upon four
<0702>
rows
<02905>
of cedar
<0730>
pillars
<05982>_,
with cedar
<0730>
beams
<03773>
upon the pillars
<05982>_.
7:3
And [it was] covered
<05603> (8803)
with cedar
<0730>
above
<04605>
upon the beams
<06763>_,
that [lay] on forty
<0705>
five
<02568>
pillars
<05982>_,
fifteen
<06240>
[in] a row
<02905>_.
{beams: Heb. ribs}
7:4
And [there were] windows
<08261>
[in] three
<07969>
rows
<02905>_,
and light
<04237>
[was] against light
<04237>
[in] three
<07969>
ranks
<06471>_.
{light was...: Heb. sight against sight}
7:5
And all the doors
<06607>
and posts
<04201>
[were] square
<07251> (8803)_,
with the windows
<08260>_:
and light
<04237>
[was] against
<04136>
light
<04237>
[in] three
<07969>
ranks
<06471>_.
{doors...: or, spaces and pillars were square in prospect}
7:6
And he made
<06213> (8804)
a porch
<0197>
of pillars
<05982>_;
the length
<0753>
thereof [was] fifty
<02572>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the breadth
<07341>
thereof thirty
<07970>
cubits
<0520>_:
and the porch
<0197>
[was] before
<06440>
them: and the [other] pillars
<05982>
and the thick beam
<05646>
[were] before them. {before them: or, according to them}
7:7
Then he made
<06213> (8804)
a porch
<0197>
for the throne
<03678>
where he might judge
<08199> (8799)_,
[even] the porch
<0197>
of judgment
<04941>_:
and [it was] covered
<05603> (8803)
with cedar
<0730>
from one side of the floor
<07172>
to the other
<07172>_.
{from...: Heb. from floor to floor}
7:8
And his house
<01004>
where he dwelt
<03427> (8799)
[had] another
<0312>
court
<02691>
within
<01004>
the porch
<0197>_,
[which] was of the like work
<04639>_.
Solomon
<08010>
made
<06213> (8799)
also an house
<01004>
for Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>_,
whom he had taken
<03947> (8804)
[to wife], like unto this porch
<0197>_.
7:9
All these [were of] costly
<03368>
stones
<068>_,
according to the measures
<04060>
of hewed stones
<01496>_,
sawed
<01641> (8775)
with saws
<04050>_,
within
<01004>
and without
<02351>_,
even from the foundation
<04527>
unto the coping
<02947>_,
and [so] on the outside
<02351>
toward the great
<01419>
court
<02691>_.
7:10
And the foundation
<03245> (8794)
[was of] costly
<03368>
stones
<068>_,
even great
<01419>
stones
<068>_,
stones
<068>
of ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>_,
and stones
<068>
of eight
<08083>
cubits
<0520>_.
7:11
And above
<04605>
[were] costly
<03368>
stones
<068>_,
after the measures
<04060>
of hewed stones
<01496>_,
and cedars
<0730>_.
7:12
And the great
<01419>
court
<02691>
round about
<05439>
[was] with three
<07969>
rows
<02905>
of hewed stones
<01496>_,
and a row
<02905>
of cedar
<0730>
beams
<03773>_,
both for the inner
<06442>
court
<02691>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and for the porch
<0197>
of the house
<01004>_.
7:13
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)
and fetched
<03947> (8799)
Hiram
<02438>
out of Tyre
<06865>_.
{Hiram: also called, Huram}
7:14
He [was] a widow's
<0802> <0490>
son
<01121>
of the tribe
<04294>
of Naphtali
<05321>_,
and his father
<01>
[was] a man
<0376>
of Tyre
<06876>_,
a worker
<02790> (8802)
in brass
<05178>_:
and he was filled
<04390> (8735)
with wisdom
<02451>_,
and understanding
<08394>_,
and cunning
<01847>
to work
<06213> (8800)
all works
<04399>
in brass
<05178>_.
And he came
<0935> (8799)
to king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_,
and wrought
<06213> (8799)
all his work
<04399>_.
{a widow's...: Heb. the son of a widow woman}
7:15
For he cast
<06696> (8799)
two
<08147>
pillars
<05982>
of brass
<05178>_,
of eighteen
<08083> <06240>
cubits
<0520>
high
<06967>
apiece
<05982> <0259>_:
and a line
<02339>
of twelve
<08147> <06240>
cubits
<0520>
did compass
<05437> (0)
either
<08145>
of them about
<05437> (8799)_.
{cast: Heb. fashioned}
7:16
And he made
<06213> (8804)
two
<08147>
chapiters
<03805>
[of] molten
<03332> (8716)
brass
<05178>_,
to set
<05414> (8800)
upon the tops
<07218>
of the pillars
<05982>_:
the height
<06967>
of the one
<0259>
chapiter
<03805>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_,
and the height
<06967>
of the other
<08145>
chapiter
<03805>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_:
7:17
[And] nets
<07638>
of checker
<07639>
work
<04639>_,
and wreaths
<01434>
of chain
<08333>
work
<04639>_,
for the chapiters
<03805>
which [were] upon the top
<07218>
of the pillars
<05982>_;
seven
<07651>
for the one
<0259>
chapiter
<03805>_,
and seven
<07651>
for the other
<08145>
chapiter
<03805>_.
7:18
And he made
<06213> (8799)
the pillars
<05982>_,
and two
<08147>
rows
<02905>
round about
<05439>
upon the one
<0259>
network
<07639>_,
to cover
<03680> (8763)
the chapiters
<03805>
that [were] upon the top
<07218>_,
with pomegranates
<07416>_:
and so did
<06213> (8804)
he for the other
<08145>
chapiter
<03805>_.
7:19
And the chapiters
<03805>
that [were] upon the top
<07218>
of the pillars
<05982>
[were] of lily
<07799>
work
<04639>
in the porch
<0197>_,
four
<0702>
cubits
<0520>_.
7:20
And the chapiters
<03805>
upon the two
<08147>
pillars
<05982>
[had pomegranates] also above
<04605>_,
over against
<05980>
the belly
<0990>
which [was] by
<05676>
the network
<07639>_:
and the pomegranates
<07416>
[were] two hundred
<03967>
in rows
<02905>
round about
<05439>
upon the other
<08145>
chapiter
<03805>_.
7:21
And he set up
<06965> (8686)
the pillars
<05982>
in the porch
<0197>
of the temple
<01964>_:
and he set up
<06965> (8686)
the right
<03233>
pillar
<05982>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
the name
<08034>
thereof Jachin
<03199>_:
and he set up
<06965> (8686)
the left
<08042>
pillar
<05982>_,
and called
<07121> (8799)
the name
<08034>
thereof Boaz
<01162>_.
{Jachin: that is, He shall establish} {Boaz: that is, In it is strength}
7:22
And upon the top
<07218>
of the pillars
<05982>
[was] lily
<07799>
work
<04639>_:
so was the work
<04399>
of the pillars
<05982>
finished
<08552> (8799)_.
7:23
And he made
<06213> (8799)
a molten
<03332> (8716)
sea
<03220>_,
ten
<06235>
cubits
<0520>
from the one brim
<08193>
to the other
<08193>_:
[it was] round
<05696>
all about
<05439>_,
and his height
<06967>
[was] five
<02568>
cubits
<0520>_:
and a line
<06957> (8675) <06961>
of thirty
<07970>
cubits
<0520>
did compass
<05437> (8799)
it round about
<05439>_.
{from...: Heb. from his brim to his brim}
7:24
And under the brim
<08193>
of it round about
<05439>
[there were] knops
<06497>
compassing
<05437> (8802)
it, ten
<06235>
in a cubit
<0520>_,
compassing
<05362> (8688)
the sea
<03220>
round about
<05439>_:
the knops
<06497>
[were] cast
<03333>
in two
<08147>
rows
<02905>_,
when it was cast
<03332> (8803)_.
7:25
It stood
<05975> (8802)
upon twelve
<08147> <06240>
oxen
<01241>_,
three
<07969>
looking
<06437> (8802)
toward the north
<06828>_,
and three
<07969>
looking
<06437> (8802)
toward the west
<03220>_,
and three
<07969>
looking
<06437> (8802)
toward the south
<05045>_,
and three
<07969>
looking
<06437> (8802)
toward the east
<04217>_:
and the sea
<03220>
[was set] above
<04605>
upon them, and all their hinder parts
<0268>
[were] inward
<01004>_.
7:26
And it [was] an hand breadth
<02947>
thick
<05672>_,
and the brim
<08193>
thereof was wrought
<04639>
like the brim
<08193>
of a cup
<03563>_,
with flowers
<06525>
of lilies
<07799>_:
it contained
<03557> (8686)
two thousand
<0505>
baths
<01324>_.
7:27
And he made
<06213> (8799)
ten
<06235>
bases
<04350>
of brass
<05178>_;
four
<0702>
cubits
<0520>
[was] the length
<0753>
of one
<0259>
base
<04350>_,
and four
<0702>
cubits
<0520>
the breadth
<07341>
thereof, and three
<07969>
cubits
<0520>
the height
<06967>
of it.
7:28
And the work
<04639>
of the bases
<04350>
[was] on this [manner]: they had borders
<04526>_,
and the borders
<04526>
[were] between the ledges
<07948>_:
7:29
And on the borders
<04526>
that [were] between the ledges
<07948>
[were] lions
<0738>_,
oxen
<01241>_,
and cherubims
<03742>_:
and upon the ledges
<07948>
[there was] a base
<03653>
above
<04605>_:
and beneath the lions
<0738>
and oxen
<01241>
[were] certain additions
<03914>
made of thin
<04174>
work
<04639>_.
7:30
And every
<0259>
base
<04350>
had four
<0702>
brasen
<05178>
wheels
<0212>_,
and plates
<05633>
of brass
<05178>_:
and the four
<0702>
corners
<06471>
thereof had undersetters
<03802>_:
under the laver
<03595>
[were] undersetters
<03802>
molten
<03332> (8803)_,
at the side
<05676>
of every
<0376>
addition
<03914>_.
7:31
And the mouth
<06310>
of it within
<01004>
the chapiter
<03805>
and above
<04605>
[was] a cubit
<0520>_:
but the mouth
<06310>
thereof [was] round
<05696>
[after] the work
<04639>
of the base
<03653>_,
a cubit
<0520>
and an half
<02677>_:
and also upon the mouth
<06310>
of it [were] gravings
<04734>
with their borders
<04526>_,
foursquare
<07251> (8794)_,
not round
<05696>_.
7:32
And under
<08478>
the borders
<04526>
[were] four
<0702>
wheels
<0212>_;
and the axletrees
<03027>
of the wheels
<0212>
[were joined] to the base
<04350>_:
and the height
<06967>
of a
<0259>
wheel
<0212>
[was] a cubit
<0520>
and half
<02677>
a cubit
<0520>_.
{joined...: Heb. in the base}
7:33
And the work
<04639>
of the wheels
<0212>
[was] like the work
<04639>
of a chariot
<04818>
wheel
<0212>_:
their axletrees
<03027>_,
and their naves
<01354>_,
and their felloes
<02839>_,
and their spokes
<02840>_,
[were] all molten
<03332> (8716)_.
7:34
And [there were] four
<0702>
undersetters
<03802>
to the four
<0702>
corners
<06438>
of one
<0259>
base
<04350>_:
[and] the undersetters
<03802>
[were] of the very base
<04350>
itself.
7:35
And in the top
<07218>
of the base
<04350>
[was there] a round
<05696>
compass
<05439>
of half
<02677>
a cubit
<0520>
high
<06967>_:
and on the top
<07218>
of the base
<04350>
the ledges
<03027>
thereof and the borders
<04526>
thereof [were] of the same.
7:36
For on the plates
<03871>
of the ledges
<03027>
thereof, and on the borders
<04526>
thereof, he graved
<06605> (8762)
cherubims
<03742>_,
lions
<0738>_,
and palm trees
<08561>_,
according to the proportion
<04626>
of every one
<0376>_,
and additions
<03914>
round about
<05439>_.
{proportion: Heb. nakedness}
7:37
After this [manner] he made
<06213> (8804)
the ten
<06235>
bases
<04350>_:
all of them had one
<0259>
casting
<04165>_,
one
<0259>
measure
<04060>_,
[and] one
<0259>
size
<07095>_.
7:38
Then made
<06213> (8799)
he ten
<06235>
lavers
<03595>
of brass
<05178>_:
one
<0259>
laver
<03595>
contained
<03557> (8686)
forty
<0705>
baths
<01324>_:
[and] every
<0259>
laver
<03595>
was four
<0702>
cubits
<0520>_:
[and] upon every one
<0259>
of the ten
<06235>
bases
<04350>
one
<0259>
laver
<03595>_.
7:39
And he put
<05414> (8799)
five
<02568>
bases
<04350>
on the right
<03225>
side
<03802>
of the house
<01004>_,
and five
<02568>
on the left
<08040>
side
<03802>
of the house
<01004>_:
and he set
<05414> (8804)
the sea
<03220>
on the right
<03233>
side
<03802>
of the house
<01004>
eastward
<06924>
over against
<04136>
the south
<05045>_.
{side: Heb. shoulder}
7:40
And Hiram
<02438>
made
<06213> (8799)
the lavers
<03595>_,
and the shovels
<03257>_,
and the basons
<04219>_.
So Hiram
<02438>
made
<03615> (8762)
an end of doing

all the work
<04399>
that he made
<06213> (8804)
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
for the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_:

The two

and the [two] bowls
<01543>
of the chapiters
<03805>
that [were] on the top

which [were] upon the top

<08147>
rows
<02905>
of pomegranates
<07416>
for one
<0259>
network
<07639>_,
to cover
<03680> (8763)
the two
<08147>
bowls
<01543>
of the chapiters
<03805>
that [were] upon
<06440>
the pillars
<05982>_;
{upon...: Heb. upon the face of the pillars}
7:43
And the ten
<06235>
bases
<04350>_,
and ten
<06235>

<03595>
on the bases

7:44
And one

{bright: Heb. made bright or, scoured}
7:46
In the plain
<03603>
of Jordan
<03383>
did the king
<04428>
cast
<03332> (8804)
them, in the clay

ground
<0127>
between Succoth
<05523>

{in...: Heb. in the thickness of the ground}
7:47
And Solomon
<08010>
left
<03240> (8686)
all the vessels
<03627>
[unweighed], because they were exceeding
<03966> <03966>
many
<07230>_:
neither was the weight

of the brass
<05178>
found out
<02713> (8738)_.
{because...: Heb. for the exceeding multitude} {found: Heb. searched}
7:48
And Solomon
<08010>
made
<06213> (8799)

<03627>
that [pertained] unto the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_:

<04196>
of gold
<02091>_,
and the table
<07979>

<02091>_,
whereupon the shewbread
<03899> <06440>

And the candlesticks

7:50
And the bowls

<01964>_.
{censers: Heb. ash pans}
7:51
So was ended
<07999> (8799)
all the work
<04399>
that king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
made
<06213> (8804)
for the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
And Solomon
<08010>
brought in
<0935> (8686)
the things which David
<01732>
his father
<01>
had dedicated
<06944>_;
[even] the silver
<03701>_,
and the gold
<02091>_,
and the vessels
<03627>_,
did he put
<05414> (8804)
among the treasures
<0214>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
{things...: Heb. holy things of David}
8:1
Then Solomon
<08010>
assembled
<06950> (8686)
the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and all the heads
<07218>
of the tribes
<04294>_,
the chief
<05387>
of the fathers
<01>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
unto king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that they might bring up
<05927> (8687)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
out of the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>_,
which [is] Zion
<06726>_.
{chief: Heb. princes}
8:2
And all the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
assembled
<06950> (8735)
themselves unto king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
at the feast
<02282>
in the month
<03391>
Ethanim
<0388>_,
which [is] the seventh
<07637>
month
<02320>_.
8:3
And all the elders
<02205>
of Israel
<03478>
came
<0935> (8799)_,
and the priests
<03548>
took up
<05375> (8799)
the ark
<0727>_.
8:4
And they brought up
<05927> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the tabernacle
<0168>
of the congregation
<04150>_,
and all the holy
<06944>
vessels
<03627>
that [were] in the tabernacle
<0168>_,
even those did the priests
<03548>
and the Levites
<03881>
bring up
<05927> (8686)_.
8:5
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_,
and all the congregation
<05712>
of Israel
<03478>_,
that were assembled
<03259> (8737)
unto him, [were] with him before
<06440>
the ark
<0727>_,
sacrificing
<02076> (8764)
sheep
<06629>
and oxen
<01241>_,
that could not be told
<05608> (8735)
nor numbered
<04487> (8735)
for multitude
<07230>_.
8:6
And the priests
<03548>
brought in
<0935> (8686)
the ark
<0727>
of the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>
unto his place
<04725>_,
into the oracle
<01687>
of the house
<01004>_,
to the most
<06944>
holy
<06944>
[place, even] under the wings
<03671>
of the cherubims
<03742>_.
8:7
For the cherubims
<03742>
spread forth
<06566> (8802)
[their] two wings
<03671>
over the place
<04725>
of the ark
<0727>_,
and the cherubims
<03742>
covered
<05526> (8799)
the ark
<0727>
and the staves
<0905>
thereof above
<04605>_.
8:8
And they drew out
<0748> (8686)
the staves
<0905>_,
that the ends
<07218>
of the staves
<0905>
were seen out
<07200> (8735)
in the holy
<06944>
[place] before
<06440>
the oracle
<01687>_,
and they were not seen
<07200> (8735)
without
<02351>_:
and there they are unto this day
<03117>_.
{ends: Heb. heads} {holy...: or, ark}
8:9
[There was] nothing in the ark
<0727>
save
<07535>
the two
<08147>
tables
<03871>
of stone
<068>_,
which Moses
<04872>
put
<03240> (8689)
there at Horeb
<02722>_,
when the LORD
<03068>
made
<03772> (8804)
[a covenant] with the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
when they came out
<03318> (8800)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
{when the: or, where the}
8:10
And it came to pass, when the priests
<03548>
were come out
<03318> (8800)
of the holy
<06944>
[place], that the cloud
<06051>
filled
<04390> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
8:11
So that the priests
<03548>
could
<03201> (8804)
not stand
<05975> (8800)
to minister
<08334> (8763)
because
<06440>
of the cloud
<06051>_:
for the glory
<03519>
of the LORD
<03068>
had filled
<04390> (8804)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
8:12
Then spake
<0559> (8804)
Solomon
<08010>_,
The LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)
that he would dwell
<07931> (8800)
in the thick darkness
<06205>_.
8:13
I have surely
<01129> (8800)
built
<01129> (8804)
thee an house
<01004>
to dwell in
<02073>_,
a settled place
<04349>
for thee to abide in
<03427> (8800)
for ever
<05769>_.
8:14
And the king
<04428>
turned
<05437> (0)
his face
<06440>
about
<05437> (8686)_,
and blessed
<01288> (8762)
all the congregation
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>_:
(and all the congregation
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>
stood
<05975> (8802);)
8:15
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which spake
<01696> (8765)
with his mouth
<06310>
unto David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
and hath with his hand
<03027>
fulfilled
<04390> (8765)
[it], saying
<0559> (8800)_,
8:16
Since the day
<03117>
that I brought forth
<03318> (8689)
my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
I chose
<0977> (8804)
no city
<05892>
out of all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>_,
that my name
<08034>
might be therein; but I chose
<0977> (8799)
David
<01732>
to be over my people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_.
8:17
And it was in the heart
<03824>
of David
<01732>
my father
<01>
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
for the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
8:18
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
Whereas
<03282> <0834>
it was in thine heart
<03824>
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
unto my name
<08034>_,
thou didst well
<02895> (8689)
that it was in thine heart
<03824>_.
8:19
Nevertheless
<07535>
thou shalt not build
<01129> (8799)
the house
<01004>_;
but thy son
<01121>
that shall come forth out
<03318> (8802)
of thy loins
<02504>_,
he shall build
<01129> (8799)
the house
<01004>
unto my name
<08034>_.
8:20
And the LORD
<03068>
hath performed
<06965> (8686)
his word
<01697>
that he spake
<01696> (8765)_,
and I am risen up
<06965> (8799)
in the room of David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
and sit
<03427> (8799)
on the throne
<03678>
of Israel
<03478>_,
as the LORD
<03068>
promised
<01696> (8765)_,
and have built
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
for the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
8:21
And I have set
<07760> (8799)
there a place
<04725>
for the ark
<0727>_,
wherein [is] the covenant
<01285>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
which he made
<03772> (8804)
with our fathers
<01>_,
when he brought them out
<03318> (8687)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
8:22
And Solomon
<08010>
stood
<05975> (8799)
before
<06440>
the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>
in the presence of
<05048>
all the congregation
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and spread forth
<06566> (8799)
his hands
<03709>
toward heaven
<08064>_:
8:23
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
[there is] no God
<0430>
like thee, in heaven
<08064>
above
<04605>_,
or on earth
<0776>
beneath, who keepest
<08104> (8802)
covenant
<01285>
and mercy
<02617>
with thy servants
<05650>
that walk
<01980> (8802)
before
<06440>
thee with all their heart
<03820>_:
8:24
Who hast kept
<08104> (8804)
with thy servant
<05650>
David
<01732>
my father
<01>
that thou promisedst
<01696> (8765)
him: thou spakest
<01696> (8762)
also with thy mouth
<06310>_,
and hast fulfilled
<04390> (8765)
[it] with thine hand
<03027>_,
as [it is] this day
<03117>_.
8:25
Therefore now, LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
keep
<08104> (8798)
with thy servant
<05650>
David
<01732>
my father
<01>
that thou promisedst
<01696> (8765)
him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
There shall not fail
<03772> (8735)
thee a man
<0376>
in my sight
<06440>
to sit
<03427> (8802)
on the throne
<03678>
of Israel
<03478>_;
so
<07535>
that thy children
<01121>
take heed
<08104> (8799)
to their way
<01870>_,
that they walk
<03212> (8800)
before
<06440>
me as thou hast walked
<01980> (8804)
before
<06440>
me. {fail...: Heb. be cut off unto thee a man from my sight} {so that: Heb. only if}
8:26
And now, O God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
let thy word
<01697>_,
I pray thee, be verified
<0539> (8735)_,
which thou spakest
<01696> (8765)
unto thy servant
<05650>
David
<01732>
my father
<01>_.
8:27
But will God
<0430>
indeed
<0552>
dwell
<03427> (8799)
on the earth
<0776>_?
behold, the heaven
<08064>
and heaven
<08064>
of heavens
<08064>
cannot contain
<03557> (8770)
thee; how much less
<0637>
this house
<01004>
that I have builded
<01129> (8804)_?
8:28
Yet have thou respect
<06437> (8804)
unto the prayer
<08605>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
and to his supplication
<08467>_,
O LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
to hearken
<08085> (8800)
unto the cry
<07440>
and to the prayer
<08605>_,
which thy servant
<05650>
prayeth
<06419> (8693)
before
<06440>
thee to day
<03117>_:
8:29
That thine eyes
<05869>
may be open
<06605> (8803)
toward this house
<01004>
night
<03915>
and day
<03117>_,
[even] toward the place
<04725>
of which thou hast said
<0559> (8804)_,
My name
<08034>
shall be there: that thou mayest hearken
<08085> (8800)
unto the prayer
<08605>
which thy servant
<05650>
shall make
<06419> (8691)
toward this place
<04725>_.
{toward this place: or, in this place}
8:30
And hearken
<08085> (8804)
thou to the supplication
<08467>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
and of thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
when they shall pray
<06419> (8691)
toward this place
<04725>_:
and hear
<08085> (8799)
thou in heaven
<08064>
thy dwelling
<03427> (8800)
place
<04725>_:
and when thou hearest
<08085> (8804)_,
forgive
<05545> (8804)_.
{toward this place: or, in this place}
8:31
If any man
<0376>
trespass
<02398> (8799)
against his neighbour
<07453>_,
and an oath
<0423>
be laid
<05375> (8804)
upon him to cause him to swear
<0422> (8687)_,
and the oath
<0423>
come
<0935> (8804)
before
<06440>
thine altar
<04196>
in this house
<01004>_:
{and an oath...: Heb. and he require an oath of him}
8:32
Then hear
<08085> (8799)
thou in heaven
<08064>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)_,
and judge
<08199> (8804)
thy servants
<05650>_,
condemning
<07561> (8687)
the wicked
<07563>_,
to bring
<05414> (8800)
his way
<01870>
upon his head
<07218>_;
and justifying
<06663> (8687)
the righteous
<06662>_,
to give
<05414> (8800)
him according to his righteousness
<06666>_.
8:33
When thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
be smitten down
<05062> (8736)
before
<06440>
the enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
because they have sinned
<02398> (8799)
against thee, and shall turn again
<07725> (8804)
to thee, and confess
<03034> (8689)
thy name
<08034>_,
and pray
<06419> (8694)_,
and make supplication
<02603> (8694)
unto thee in this house
<01004>_:
{in: or, toward}
8:34
Then hear
<08085> (8799)
thou in heaven
<08064>_,
and forgive
<05545> (8804)
the sin
<02403>
of thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
and bring them again
<07725> (8689)
unto the land
<0127>
which thou gavest
<05414> (8804)
unto their fathers
<01>_.
8:35
When heaven
<08064>
is shut up
<06113> (8736)_,
and there is no rain
<04306>_,
because they have sinned
<02398> (8799)
against thee; if they pray
<06419> (8694)
toward this place
<04725>_,
and confess
<03034> (8689)
thy name
<08034>_,
and turn
<07725> (8799)
from their sin
<02403>_,
when thou afflictest
<06031> (8686)
them:
8:36
Then hear
<08085> (8799)
thou in heaven
<08064>_,
and forgive
<05545> (8804)
the sin
<02403>
of thy servants
<05650>_,
and of thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
that thou teach
<03384> (8686)
them the good
<02896>
way
<01870>
wherein they should walk
<03212> (8799)_,
and give
<05414> (8804)
rain
<04306>
upon thy land
<0776>_,
which thou hast given
<05414> (8804)
to thy people
<05971>
for an inheritance
<05159>_.
8:37
If there be in the land
<0776>
famine
<07458>_,
if there be pestilence
<01698>_,
blasting
<07711>_,
mildew
<03420>_,
locust
<0697>_,
[or] if there be caterpiller
<02625>_;
if their enemy
<0341> (8802)
besiege
<06887> (8686)
them in the land
<0776>
of their cities
<08179>_;
whatsoever plague
<05061>_,
whatsoever sickness
<04245>
[there be]; {cities: or, jurisdiction}
8:38
What prayer
<08605>
and supplication
<08467>
soever be [made] by any man
<0120>_,
[or] by all thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
which shall know
<03045> (8799)
every man
<0376>
the plague
<05061>
of his own heart
<03824>_,
and spread forth
<06566> (8804)
his hands
<03709>
toward this house
<01004>_:
8:39
Then hear
<08085> (8799)
thou in heaven
<08064>
thy dwelling
<03427> (8800)
place
<04349>_,
and forgive
<05545> (8804)_,
and do
<06213> (8804)_,
and give
<05414> (8804)
to every man
<0376>
according to his ways
<01870>_,
whose heart
<03824>
thou knowest
<03045> (8799)_;
(for thou, [even] thou only, knowest
<03045> (8804)
the hearts
<03824>
of all the children
<01121>
of men
<0120>;)
8:40
That they may fear
<03372> (8799)
thee all the days
<03117>
that they live
<02416>
in
<06440>
the land
<0127>
which thou gavest
<05414> (8804)
unto our fathers
<01>_.
8:41
Moreover concerning a stranger
<05237>_,
that [is] not of thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
but cometh out
<0935> (8804)
of a far
<07350>
country
<0776>
for
<04616>
thy name's
<08034>
sake;
8:42
(For they shall hear
<08085> (8799)
of thy great
<01419>
name
<08034>_,
and of thy strong
<02389>
hand
<03027>_,
and of thy stretched out
<05186> (8803)
arm
<02220>;)
when he shall come
<0935> (8804)
and pray
<06419> (8694)
toward this house
<01004>_;
8:43
Hear
<08085> (8799)
thou in heaven
<08064>
thy dwelling
<03427> (8800)
place
<04349>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
according to all that the stranger
<05237>
calleth
<07121> (8799)
to thee for: that all people
<05971>
of the earth
<0776>
may know
<03045> (8799)
thy name
<08034>_,
to fear
<03372> (8800)
thee, as [do] thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_;
and that they may know
<03045> (8800)
that this house
<01004>_,
which I have builded
<01129> (8804)_,
is called
<07121> (8738)
by thy name
<08034>_.
{this...: Heb. thy name is called upon this house}
8:44
If thy people
<05971>
go out
<03318> (8799)
to battle
<04421>
against their enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
whithersoever
<01870>
thou shalt send
<07971> (8799)
them, and shall pray
<06419> (8694)
unto the LORD
<03068>
toward
<01870>
the city
<05892>
which thou hast chosen
<0977> (8804)_,
and [toward] the house
<01004>
that I have built
<01129> (8804)
for thy name
<08034>_:
{toward the city: Heb. the way of the city}
8:45
Then hear
<08085> (8804)
thou in heaven
<08064>
their prayer
<08605>
and their supplication
<08467>_,
and maintain
<06213> (8804)
their cause
<04941>_.
{cause: or, right}
8:46
If they sin
<02398> (8799)
against thee, (for [there is] no man
<0120>
that sinneth
<02398> (8799)
not,) and thou be angry
<0599> (8804)
with them, and deliver
<05414> (8804)
them to the enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
so that they carry them away
<07617> (8804)
captives
<07617> (8802)
unto
<06440>
the land
<0776>
of the enemy
<0341> (8802)_,
far
<07350>
or near
<07138>_;
8:47
[Yet] if they shall bethink
<07725> (8689)
themselves in the land
<0776>
whither they were carried captives
<07617> (8738)_,
and repent
<07725> (8804) <03820>_,
and make supplication
<02603> (8694)
unto thee in the land
<0776>
of them that carried them captives
<07617> (8802)_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
We have sinned
<02398> (8804)_,
and have done perversely
<05753> (8689)_,
we have committed wickedness
<07561> (8804)_;
{bethink...: Heb. bring back to their heart}
8:48
And [so] return
<07725> (8804)
unto thee with all their heart
<03824>_,
and with all their soul
<05315>_,
in the land
<0776>
of their enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
which led them away captive
<07617> (8804)_,
and pray
<06419> (8694)
unto thee toward
<01870>
their land
<0776>_,
which thou gavest
<05414> (8804)
unto their fathers
<01>_,
the city
<05892>
which thou hast chosen
<0977> (8804)_,
and the house
<01004>
which I have built
<01129> (8804)
for thy name
<08034>_:
8:49
Then hear
<08085> (8804)
thou their prayer
<08605>
and their supplication
<08467>
in heaven
<08064>
thy dwelling
<03427> (8800)
place
<04349>_,
and maintain
<06213> (8804)
their cause
<04941>_,
{cause: or, right}
8:50
And forgive
<05545> (8804)
thy people
<05971>
that have sinned
<02398> (8804)
against thee, and all their transgressions
<06588>
wherein they have transgressed
<06586> (8804)
against thee, and give
<05414> (8804)
them compassion
<07356>
before
<06440>
them who carried them captive
<07617> (8802)_,
that they may have compassion
<07355> (8765)
on them:
8:51
For they [be] thy people
<05971>_,
and thine inheritance
<05159>_,
which thou broughtest forth
<03318> (8689)
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
from the midst
<08432>
of the furnace
<03564>
of iron
<01270>_:
8:52
That thine eyes
<05869>
may be open
<06605> (8803)
unto the supplication
<08467>
of thy servant
<05650>_,
and unto the supplication
<08467>
of thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
to hearken
<08085> (8800)
unto them in all that they call
<07121> (8800)
for unto thee.
8:53
For thou didst separate
<0914> (8689)
them from among all the people
<05971>
of the earth
<0776>_,
[to be] thine inheritance
<05159>_,
as thou spakest
<01696> (8765)
by the hand
<03027>
of Moses
<04872>
thy servant
<05650>_,
when thou broughtest
<03318> (8687)
our fathers
<01>
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
O Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_.
8:54
And it was [so], that when Solomon
<08010>
had made an end
<03615> (8763)
of praying
<06419> (8692)
all this prayer
<08605>
and supplication
<08467>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
he arose
<06965> (8804)
from before
<06440>
the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
from kneeling
<03766> (8800)
on his knees
<01290>
with his hands
<03709>
spread up
<06566> (8803)
to heaven
<08064>_.
8:55
And he stood
<05975> (8799)_,
and blessed
<01288> (8762)
all the congregation
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>
with a loud
<01419>
voice
<06963>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
8:56
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>_,
that hath given
<05414> (8804)
rest
<04496>
unto his people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
according to all that he promised
<01696> (8765)_:
there hath not failed
<05307> (8804)
one
<0259>
word
<01697>
of all his good
<02896>
promise
<01697>_,
which he promised
<01696> (8765)
by the hand
<03027>
of Moses
<04872>
his servant
<05650>_.
{failed: Heb. fallen}
8:57
The LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>
be with us, as he was with our fathers
<01>_:
let him not leave
<05800> (8799)
us, nor forsake
<05203> (8799)
us:
8:58
That he may incline
<05186> (8687)
our hearts
<03824>
unto him, to walk
<03212> (8800)
in all his ways
<01870>_,
and to keep
<08104> (8800)
his commandments
<04687>_,
and his statutes
<02706>_,
and his judgments
<04941>_,
which he commanded
<06680> (8765)
our fathers
<01>_.
8:59
And let these my words
<01697>_,
wherewith I have made supplication
<02603> (8694)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
be nigh
<07138>
unto the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>
day
<03119>
and night
<03915>_,
that he maintain
<06213> (8800)
the cause
<04941>
of his servant
<05650>_,
and the cause
<04941>
of his people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>
at all times
<03117> <03117>_,
as the matter
<01697>
shall require: {at all...: Heb. the thing of a day in his day}
8:60
That all the people
<05971>
of the earth
<0776>
may know
<03045> (8800)
that the LORD
<03068>
[is] God
<0430>_,
[and that there is] none else.
8:61
Let your heart
<03824>
therefore be perfect
<08003>
with the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_,
to walk
<03212> (8800)
in his statutes
<02706>_,
and to keep
<08104> (8800)
his commandments
<04687>_,
as at this day
<03117>_.
8:62
And the king
<04428>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, offered
<02076> (8802)
sacrifice
<02077>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_.
8:63
And Solomon
<08010>
offered
<02076> (8799)
a sacrifice
<02077>
of peace offerings
<08002>_,
which he offered
<02076> (8804)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
two
<08147>
and twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
oxen
<01241>_,
and an hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>
thousand
<0505>
sheep
<06629>_.
So the king
<04428>
and all the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
dedicated
<02596> (8799)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
8:64
The same day
<03117>
did the king
<04428>
hallow
<06942> (8765)
the middle
<08432>
of the court
<02691>
that [was] before
<06440>
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_:
for there he offered
<06213> (8804)
burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and meat offerings
<04503>_,
and the fat
<02459>
of the peace offerings
<08002>_:
because the brasen
<05178>
altar
<04196>
that [was] before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
[was] too little
<06996>
to receive
<03557> (8687)
the burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and meat offerings
<04503>_,
and the fat
<02459>
of the peace offerings
<08002>_.
8:65
And at that time
<06256>
Solomon
<08010>
held
<06213> (8799)
a feast
<02282>_,
and all Israel
<03478>
with him, a great
<01419>
congregation
<06951>_,
from the entering
<0935> (8800)
in of Hamath
<02574>
unto the river
<05158>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_,
seven
<07651>
days
<03117>
and seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_,
[even] fourteen
<0702> <06240>
days
<03117>_.
8:66
On the eighth
<08066>
day
<03117>
he sent
<07971> (0)
the people
<05971>
away
<07971> (8765)_:
and they blessed
<01288> (8762)
the king
<04428>_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
unto their tents
<0168>
joyful
<08056>
and glad
<02896>
of heart
<03820>
for all the goodness
<02896>
that the LORD
<03068>
had done
<06213> (8804)
for David
<01732>
his servant
<05650>_,
and for Israel
<03478>
his people
<05971>_.
{blessed: or, thanked}
9:1
And it came to pass, when Solomon
<08010>
had finished
<03615> (8763)
the building
<01129> (8800)
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
and all Solomon's
<08010>
desire
<02837>
which he was pleased
<02654> (8804)
to do
<06213> (8800)_,
9:2
That the LORD
<03068>
appeared
<07200> (8735)
to Solomon
<08010>
the second time
<08145>_,
as he had appeared
<07200> (8738)
unto him at Gibeon
<01391>_.
9:3
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, I have heard
<08085> (8804)
thy prayer
<08605>
and thy supplication
<08467>_,
that thou hast made
<02603> (8694)
before
<06440>
me: I have hallowed
<06942> (8689)
this house
<01004>_,
which thou hast built
<01129> (8804)_,
to put
<07760> (8800)
my name
<08034>
there for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_;
and mine eyes
<05869>
and mine heart
<03820>
shall be there perpetually
<03117>_.
9:4
And if thou wilt walk
<03212> (8799)
before
<06440>
me, as David
<01732>
thy father
<01>
walked
<01980> (8804)_,
in integrity
<08537>
of heart
<03824>_,
and in uprightness
<03476>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
according to all that I have commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee, [and] wilt keep
<08104> (8799)
my statutes
<02706>
and my judgments
<04941>_:
9:5
Then I will establish
<06965> (8689)
the throne
<03678>
of thy kingdom
<04467>
upon Israel
<03478>
for ever
<05769>_,
as I promised
<01696> (8765)
to David
<01732>
thy father
<01>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
There shall not fail
<03772> (8735)
thee a man
<0376>
upon the throne
<03678>
of Israel
<03478>_.
9:6
[But] if ye shall at all
<07725> (8800)
turn
<07725> (8799)
from following
<0310>
me, ye or your children
<01121>_,
and will not keep
<08104> (8799)
my commandments
<04687>
[and] my statutes
<02708>
which I have set
<05414> (8804)
before
<06440>
you, but go
<01980> (8804)
and serve
<05647> (8804)
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
and worship
<07812> (8694)
them:
9:7
Then will I cut off
<03772> (8689)
Israel
<03478>
out
<06440>
of the land
<0127>
which I have given
<05414> (8804)
them; and this house
<01004>_,
which I have hallowed
<06942> (8689)
for my name
<08034>_,
will I cast out
<07971> (8762)
of my sight
<06440>_;
and Israel
<03478>
shall be a proverb
<04912>
and a byword
<08148>
among all people
<05971>_:
9:8
And at this house
<01004>_,
[which] is high
<05945>_,
every one that passeth
<05674> (8802)
by it shall be astonished
<08074> (8799)_,
and shall hiss
<08319> (8804)_;
and they shall say
<0559> (8804)_,
Why hath the LORD
<03068>
done
<06213> (8804)
thus unto this land
<0776>_,
and to this house
<01004>_?
9:9
And they shall answer
<0559> (8804)_,
Because they forsook
<05800> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
their God
<0430>_,
who brought forth
<03318> (8689)
their fathers
<01>
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and have taken hold
<02388> (8686)
upon other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
and have worshipped
<07812> (8691)
them, and served
<05647> (8799)
them: therefore hath the LORD
<03068>
brought
<0935> (8689)
upon them all this evil
<07451>_.
9:10
And it came to pass at the end
<07097>
of twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>_,
when Solomon
<08010>
had built
<01129> (8804)
the two
<08147>
houses
<01004>_,
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
9:11
([Now] Hiram
<02438>
the king
<04428>
of Tyre
<06865>
had furnished
<05375> (8765)
Solomon
<08010>
with cedar
<0730>
trees
<06086>
and fir
<01265>
trees
<06086>_,
and with gold
<02091>_,
according to all his desire
<02656>,)
that then
<0227>
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8799)
Hiram
<02438>
twenty
<06242>
cities
<05892>
in the land
<0776>
of Galilee
<01551>_.
9:12
And Hiram
<02438>
came out
<03318> (8799)
from Tyre
<06865>
to see
<07200> (8800)
the cities
<05892>
which Solomon
<08010>
had given
<05414> (8804)
him; and they pleased
<03474> (8804) <05869>
him not. {pleased...: Heb. were not right in his eyes}
9:13
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
What cities
<05892>
[are] these which thou hast given
<05414> (8804)
me, my brother
<0251>_?
And he called
<07121> (8799)
them the land
<0776>
of Cabul
<03521>
unto this day
<03117>_.
{Cabul: that is, displeasing, or, dirty}
9:14
And Hiram
<02438>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to the king
<04428>
sixscore
<03967> <06242>
talents
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_.
9:15
And this [is] the reason
<01697>
of the levy
<04522>
which king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
raised
<05927> (8689)_;
for to build
<01129> (8800)
the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and his own house
<01004>_,
and Millo
<04407>_,
and the wall
<02346>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and Hazor
<02674>_,
and Megiddo
<04023>_,
and Gezer
<01507>_.
9:16
[For] Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
had gone up
<05927> (8804)_,
and taken
<03920> (8799)
Gezer
<01507>_,
and burnt
<08313> (8799)
it with fire
<0784>_,
and slain
<02026> (8804)
the Canaanites
<03669>
that dwelt
<03427> (8802)
in the city
<05892>_,
and given
<05414> (8799)
it [for] a present
<07964>
unto his daughter
<01323>_,
Solomon's
<08010>
wife
<0802>_.
9:17
And Solomon
<08010>
built
<01129> (8799)
Gezer
<01507>_,
and Bethhoron
<01032>
the nether
<08481>_,
9:18
And Baalath
<01191>_,
and Tadmor
<08412>
in the wilderness
<04057>_,
in the land
<0776>_,
9:19
And all the cities
<05892>
of store
<04543>
that Solomon
<08010>
had, and cities
<05892>
for his chariots
<07393>_,
and cities
<05892>
for his horsemen
<06571>_,
and that
<02837>
which Solomon
<08010>
desired
<02836> (8804)
to build
<01129> (8800)
in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and in Lebanon
<03844>_,
and in all the land
<0776>
of his dominion
<04475>_.
{that which...: Heb. the desire of Solomon which he desired}
9:20
[And] all the people
<05971>
[that were] left
<03498> (8737)
of the Amorites
<0567>_,
Hittites
<02850>_,
Perizzites
<06522>_,
Hivites
<02340>_,
and Jebusites
<02983>_,
which [were] not of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
9:21
Their children
<01121>
that were left
<03498> (8738)
after
<0310>
them in the land
<0776>_,
whom the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
also were not able
<03201> (8804)
utterly to destroy
<02763> (8687)_,
upon those did Solomon
<08010>
levy
<05927> (8686)
a tribute
<04522>
of bondservice
<05647> (8802)
unto this day
<03117>_.
9:22
But of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
did Solomon
<08010>
make
<05414> (8804)
no bondmen
<05650>_:
but they [were] men
<0582>
of war
<04421>_,
and his servants
<05650>_,
and his princes
<08269>_,
and his captains
<07991>_,
and rulers
<08269>
of his chariots
<07393>_,
and his horsemen
<06571>_.
9:23
These [were] the chief
<08269>
of the officers
<05324> (8737)
that [were] over Solomon's
<08010>
work
<04399>_,
five
<02568>
hundred
<03967>
and fifty
<02572>_,
which bare rule
<07287> (8802)
over the people
<05971>
that wrought
<06213> (8804)
in the work
<04399>_.
9:24
But Pharaoh's
<06547>
daughter
<01323>
came up
<05927> (8804)
out of the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>
unto her house
<01004>
which [Solomon] had built
<01129> (8804)
for her: then did he build
<01129> (8804)
Millo
<04407>_.
9:25
And three
<07969>
times
<06471>
in a year
<08141>
did Solomon
<08010>
offer
<05927> (8689)
burnt offerings
<05930>
and peace offerings
<08002>
upon the altar
<04196>
which he built
<01129> (8804)
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and he burnt incense
<06999> (8687)
upon the altar
<04196>
that [was] before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_.
So he finished
<07999> (8765)
the house
<01004>_.
{upon the altar that: Heb. upon it, etc}
9:26
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
made
<06213> (8804)
a navy of ships
<0590>
in Eziongeber
<06100>_,
which [is] beside Eloth
<0359>_,
on the shore
<08193>
of the Red
<05488>
sea
<03220>_,
in the land
<0776>
of Edom
<0123>_.
{shore: Heb. lip}
9:27
And Hiram
<02438>
sent
<07971> (8799)
in the navy
<0590>
his servants
<05650>_,
shipmen
<0582> <0591>
that had knowledge
<03045> (8802)
of the sea
<03220>_,
with the servants
<05650>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
9:28
And they came
<0935> (8799)
to Ophir
<0211>_,
and fetched
<03947> (8799)
from thence gold
<02091>_,
four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>
talents
<03603>_,
and brought
<0935> (8686)
[it] to king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_.
10:1
And when the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
heard
<08085> (8802)
of the fame
<08088>
of Solomon
<08010>
concerning the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
she came
<0935> (8799)
to prove
<05254> (8763)
him with hard questions
<02420>_.
10:2
And she came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
with a very
<03966>
great
<03515>
train
<02428>_,
with camels
<01581>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
spices
<01314>_,
and very
<03966>
much
<07227>
gold
<02091>_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_:
and when she was come
<0935> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>_,
she communed
<01696> (8762)
with him of all that was in her heart
<03824>_.
10:3
And Solomon
<08010>
told
<05046> (8686)
her all her questions
<01697>_:
there was not [any] thing
<01697>
hid
<05956> (8737)
from the king
<04428>_,
which he told
<05046> (8689)
her not. {questions: Heb. words}
10:4
And when the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
all Solomon's
<08010>
wisdom
<02451>_,
and the house
<01004>
that he had built
<01129> (8804)_,
10:5
And the meat
<03978>
of his table
<07979>_,
and the sitting
<04186>
of his servants
<05650>_,
and the attendance
<04612>
of his ministers
<08334> (8764)_,
and their apparel
<04403>_,
and his cupbearers
<08248> (8688)_,
and his ascent
<05930>
by which he went up
<05927> (8799)
unto the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
there was no more spirit
<07307>
in her. {attendance: Heb. standing} {cupbearers: or, butlers}
10:6
And she said
<0559> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_,
It was a true
<0571>
report
<01697>
that I heard
<08085> (8804)
in mine own land
<0776>
of thy acts
<01697>
and of thy wisdom
<02451>_.
{report: Heb. word} {acts: or, sayings}
10:7
Howbeit I believed
<0539> (8689)
not the words
<01697>_,
until I came
<0935> (8804)_,
and mine eyes
<05869>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
[it]: and, behold, the half
<02677>
was not told
<05046> (8717)
me: thy wisdom
<02451>
and prosperity
<02896>
exceedeth
<03254> (8689)
the fame
<08052>
which I heard
<08085> (8804)_.
{thy...: Heb. thou hast added wisdom and goodness to}
10:8
Happy
<0835>
[are] thy men
<0582>_,
happy
<0835>
[are] these thy servants
<05650>_,
which stand
<05975> (8802)
continually
<08548>
before
<06440>
thee, [and] that hear
<08085> (8802)
thy wisdom
<02451>_.
10:9
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
be the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
which delighted
<02654> (8804)
in thee, to set
<05414> (8800)
thee on the throne
<03678>
of Israel
<03478>_:
because the LORD
<03068>
loved
<0160>
Israel
<03478>
for ever
<05769>_,
therefore made
<07760> (8799)
he thee king
<04428>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
judgment
<04941>
and justice
<06666>_.
10:10
And she gave
<05414> (8799)
the king
<04428>
an hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>
talents
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_,
and of spices
<01314>
very
<03966>
great store
<07235> (8687)_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_:
there came
<0935> (8804)
no more such
<01931>
abundance
<07230>
of spices
<01314>
as these which the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
gave
<05414> (8804)
to king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_.
10:11
And the navy
<0590>
also of Hiram
<02438>_,
that brought
<05375> (8804)
gold
<02091>
from Ophir
<0211>_,
brought in
<0935> (8689)
from Ophir
<0211>
great
<03966>
plenty
<07235> (8687)
of almug
<0484>
trees
<06086>_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_.
{almug...: also called, algum trees}
10:12
And the king
<04428>
made
<06213> (8799)
of the almug
<0484>
trees
<06086>
pillars
<04552>
for the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and for the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
harps
<03658>
also and psalteries
<05035>
for singers
<07891> (8802)_:
there came
<0935> (8804)
no such almug
<0484>
trees
<06086>_,
nor were seen
<07200> (8738)
unto this day
<03117>_.
{pillars: or, rails: Heb. a prop}
10:13
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8804)
unto the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
all her desire
<02656>_,
whatsoever she asked
<07592> (8804)_,
beside [that] which Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8804)
her of his royal
<04428>
bounty
<03027>_.
So she turned
<06437> (8799)
and went
<03212> (8799)
to her own country
<0776>_,
she and her servants
<05650>_.
{of his...: Heb. according to the hand of king Solomon}
10:14
Now the weight
<04948>
of gold
<02091>
that came
<0935> (8804)
to Solomon
<08010>
in one
<0259>
year
<08141>
was six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
threescore
<08346>
and six
<08337>
talents
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_,
10:15
Beside [that he had] of the merchantmen
<0582> <08446> (8802)_,
and of the traffick
<04536>
of the spice merchants
<07402> (8802)_,
and of all the kings
<04428>
of Arabia
<06153>_,
and of the governors
<06346>
of the country
<0776>_.
{governors: or, captains}
10:16
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
made
<06213> (8799)
two hundred
<03967>
targets
<06793>
[of] beaten
<07820> (8803)
gold
<02091>_:
six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
[shekels] of gold
<02091>
went
<05927> (8686)
to one
<0259>
target
<06793>_.
10:17
And [he made] three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>
shields
<04043>
[of] beaten
<07820> (8803)
gold
<02091>_;
three
<07969>
pound
<04488>
of gold
<02091>
went
<05927> (8686)
to one
<0259>
shield
<04043>_:
and the king
<04428>
put
<05414> (8799)
them in the house
<01004>
of the forest
<03293>
of Lebanon
<03844>_.
10:18
Moreover the king
<04428>
made
<06213> (8799)
a great
<01419>
throne
<03678>
of ivory
<08127>_,
and overlaid
<06823> (8762)
it with the best
<06338> (8716)
gold
<02091>_.
10:19
The throne
<03678>
had six
<08337>
steps
<04609>_,
and the top
<07218>
of the throne
<03678>
[was] round
<05696>
behind
<0310>_:
and [there were] stays
<03027>
on either side on the place
<04725>
of the seat
<07675> (8800)_,
and two
<08147>
lions
<0738>
stood
<05975> (8802)
beside
<0681>
the stays
<03027>_.
{behind: Heb. on the hinder part thereof} {stays: Heb. hands}
10:20
And twelve
<08147> <06240>
lions
<0738>
stood
<05975> (8802)
there on the one side and on the other upon the six
<08337>
steps
<04609>_:
there was not the like
<03651>
made
<06213> (8738)
in any kingdom
<04467>_.
{the like: Heb. so}
10:21
And all king
<04428>
Solomon's
<08010>
drinking
<04945>
vessels
<03627>
[were of] gold
<02091>_,
and all the vessels
<03627>
of the house
<01004>
of the forest
<03293>
of Lebanon
<03844>
[were of] pure
<05462> (8803)
gold
<02091>_;
none [were of] silver
<03701>_:
it was nothing
<03972>
accounted
<02803> (8737)
of in the days
<03117>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
{none...: or, there was no silver in them}
10:22
For the king
<04428>
had at sea
<03220>
a navy
<0590>
of Tharshish
<08659>
with the navy
<0590>
of Hiram
<02438>_:
once
<0259>
in three
<07969>
years
<08141>
came
<0935> (8799)
the navy
<0590>
of Tharshish
<08659>_,
bringing
<05375> (8802)
gold
<02091>_,
and silver
<03701>_,
ivory
<08143>_,
and apes
<06971>_,
and peacocks
<08500>_.
{ivory: or, elephants' teeth}
10:23
So king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
exceeded
<01431> (8799)
all the kings
<04428>
of the earth
<0776>
for riches
<06239>
and for wisdom
<02451>_.
10:24
And all the earth
<0776>
sought
<01245> (8764)
to
<06440>
Solomon
<08010>_,
to hear
<08085> (8800)
his wisdom
<02451>_,
which God
<0430>
had put
<05414> (8804)
in his heart
<03820>_.
{sought to: Heb. sought the face of}
10:25
And they brought
<0935> (8688)
every man
<0376>
his present
<04503>_,
vessels
<03627>
of silver
<03701>_,
and vessels
<03627>
of gold
<02091>_,
and garments
<08008>_,
and armour
<05402>_,
and spices
<01314>_,
horses
<05483>_,
and mules
<06505>_,
a rate
<01697>
year
<08141>
by year
<08141>_.
10:26
And Solomon
<08010>
gathered together
<0622> (8799)
chariots
<07393>
and horsemen
<06571>_:
and he had a thousand
<0505>
and four
<0702>
hundred
<03967>
chariots
<07393>_,
and twelve
<08147> <06240>
thousand
<0505>
horsemen
<06571>_,
whom he bestowed
<05148> (8686)
in the cities
<05892>
for chariots
<07393>_,
and with the king
<04428>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_.
10:27
And the king
<04428>
made
<05414> (8799)
silver
<03701>
[to be] in Jerusalem
<03389>
as stones
<068>_,
and cedars
<0730>
made
<05414> (8804)
he [to be] as the sycomore trees
<08256>
that [are] in the vale
<08219>_,
for abundance
<07230>_.
{made: Heb. gave}
10:28
And Solomon
<08010>
had horses
<05483>
brought
<04161>
out of Egypt
<04714>_,
and linen yarn
<04723>_:
the king's
<04428>
merchants
<05503> (8802)
received
<03947> (8799)
the linen yarn
<04723>
at a price
<04242>_.
{And Solomon...: Heb. And the going forth of the horses which was Solomon's}
10:29
And a chariot
<04818>
came up
<05927> (8799)
and went out
<03318> (8799)
of Egypt
<04714>
for six
<08337>
hundred
<03967>
[shekels] of silver
<03701>_,
and an horse
<05483>
for an hundred
<03967>
and fifty
<02572>_:
and so for all the kings
<04428>
of the Hittites
<02850>_,
and for the kings
<04428>
of Syria
<0758>_,
did they bring [them] out
<03318> (8686)
by their means
<03027>_.
{by their...: Heb. by their hand}
11:1
But king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
loved
<0157> (8804)
many
<07227>
strange
<05237>
women
<0802>_,
together with the daughter
<01323>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
women of the Moabites
<04125>_,
Ammonites
<05984>_,
Edomites
<0130>_,
Zidonians
<06722>_,
[and] Hittites
<02850>_;
{together...: or, beside}
11:2
Of the nations
<01471>
[concerning] which the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8804)
unto the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Ye shall not go in
<0935> (8799)
to them, neither shall they come in
<0935> (8799)
unto you: [for] surely
<0403>
they will turn away
<05186> (8686)
your heart
<03824>
after
<0310>
their gods
<0430>_:
Solomon
<08010>
clave
<01692> (8804)
unto these in love
<0157> (8800)_.
11:3
And he had seven
<07651>
hundred
<03967>
wives
<0802>_,
princesses
<08282>_,
and three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>
concubines
<06370>_:
and his wives
<0802>
turned away
<05186> (8686)
his heart
<03820>_.
11:4
For it came to pass, when
<06256>
Solomon
<08010>
was old
<02209>_,
[that] his wives
<0802>
turned away
<05186> (8689)
his heart
<03824>
after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_:
and his heart
<03824>
was not perfect
<08003>
with the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_,
as [was] the heart
<03824>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
11:5
For Solomon
<08010>
went
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
Ashtoreth
<06253>
the goddess
<0430>
of the Zidonians
<06722>_,
and after
<0310>
Milcom
<04445>
the abomination
<08251>
of the Ammonites
<05984>_.
{Milcom: also called, Molech}
11:6
And Solomon
<08010>
did
<06213> (8799)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and went not fully
<04390> (8765)
after
<0310>
the LORD
<03068>_,
as [did] David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
{went...: Heb. fulfilled not after}
11:7
Then did Solomon
<08010>
build
<01129> (8799)
an high place
<01116>
for Chemosh
<03645>_,
the abomination
<08251>
of Moab
<04124>_,
in the hill
<02022>
that [is] before
<06440>
Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and for Molech
<04432>_,
the abomination
<08251>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_.
11:8
And likewise did
<06213> (8804)
he for all his strange
<05237>
wives
<0802>_,
which burnt incense
<06999> (8688)
and sacrificed
<02076> (8764)
unto their gods
<0430>_.
11:9
And the LORD
<03068>
was angry
<0599> (8691)
with Solomon
<08010>_,
because his heart
<03824>
was turned
<05186> (8804)
from the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
which had appeared
<07200> (8738)
unto him twice
<06471>_,
11:10
And had commanded
<06680> (8765)
him concerning this thing
<01697>_,
that he should not go
<03212> (8800)
after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_:
but he kept
<08104> (8804)
not that which the LORD
<03068>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_.
11:11
Wherefore the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Solomon
<08010>_,
Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept
<08104> (8804)
my covenant
<01285>
and my statutes
<02708>_,
which I have commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee, I will surely
<07167> (8800)
rend
<07167> (8799)
the kingdom
<04467>
from thee, and will give
<05414> (8804)
it to thy servant
<05650>_.
{is done...: Heb. is with thee}
11:12
Notwithstanding in thy days
<03117>
I will not do
<06213> (8799)
it for David
<01732>
thy father's
<01>
sake: [but] I will rend
<07167> (8799)
it out of the hand
<03027>
of thy son
<01121>_.
11:13
Howbeit
<07535>
I will not rend away
<07167> (8799)
all the kingdom
<04467>_;
[but] will give
<05414> (8799)
one
<0259>
tribe
<07626>
to thy son
<01121>
for David
<01732>
my servant's
<05650>
sake, and for Jerusalem's
<03389>
sake which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)_.
11:14
And the LORD
<03068>
stirred up
<06965> (8686)
an adversary
<07854>
unto Solomon
<08010>_,
Hadad
<01908>
the Edomite
<0130>_:
he [was] of the king's
<04428>
seed
<02233>
in Edom
<0123>_.
11:15
For it came to pass, when David
<01732>
was in Edom
<0123>_,
and Joab
<03097>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
was gone up
<05927> (8800)
to bury
<06912> (8763)
the slain
<02491>_,
after he had smitten
<05221> (8686)
every male
<02145>
in Edom
<0123>_;
11:16
(For six
<08337>
months
<02320>
did Joab
<03097>
remain
<03427> (8804)
there with all Israel
<03478>_,
until he had cut off
<03772> (8689)
every male
<02145>
in Edom
<0123>:)
11:17
That Hadad
<0111>
fled
<01272> (8799)_,
he and certain
<0582>
Edomites
<0130>
of his father's
<01>
servants
<05650>
with him, to go
<0935> (8800)
into Egypt
<04714>_;
Hadad
<01908>
[being] yet a little
<06996>
child
<05288>_.
11:18
And they arose
<06965> (8799)
out of Midian
<04080>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Paran
<06290>_:
and they took
<03947> (8799)
men
<0582>
with them out of Paran
<06290>_,
and they came
<0935> (8799)
to Egypt
<04714>_,
unto Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
which gave
<05414> (8799)
him an house
<01004>_,
and appointed
<0559> (8804)
him victuals
<03899>_,
and gave
<05414> (8804)
him land
<0776>_.
11:19
And Hadad
<01908>
found
<04672> (8799)
great
<03966>
favour
<02580>
in the sight
<05869>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
so that he gave
<05414> (8799)
him to wife
<0802>
the sister
<0269>
of his own wife
<0802>_,
the sister
<0269>
of Tahpenes
<08472>
the queen
<01377>_.
11:20
And the sister
<0269>
of Tahpenes
<08472>
bare
<03205> (8799)
him Genubath
<01592>
his son
<01121>_,
whom Tahpenes
<08472>
weaned
<01580> (8799)
in
<08432>
Pharaoh's
<06547>
house
<01004>_:
and Genubath
<01592>
was in Pharaoh's
<06547>
household
<01004>
among
<08432>
the sons
<01121>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_.
11:21
And when Hadad
<01908>
heard
<08085> (8804)
in Egypt
<04714>
that David
<01732>
slept
<07901> (8804)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and that Joab
<03097>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
was dead
<04191> (8804)_,
Hadad
<01908>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Pharaoh
<06547>_,
Let me depart
<07971> (8761)_,
that I may go
<03212> (8799)
to mine own country
<0776>_.
{Let...: Heb. Send me away}
11:22
Then Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, But what hast thou lacked
<02638>
with me, that, behold, thou seekest
<01245> (8764)
to go
<03212> (8800)
to thine own country
<0776>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
Nothing: howbeit let me go
<07971> (8762)
in any wise
<07971> (8763)_.
{Nothing: Heb. Not}
11:23
And God
<0430>
stirred him up
<06965> (8686)
[another] adversary
<07854>_,
Rezon
<07331>
the son
<01121>
of Eliadah
<0450>_,
which fled
<01272> (8804)
from his lord
<0113>
Hadadezer
<01909>
king
<04428>
of Zobah
<06678>_:
11:24
And he gathered
<06908> (8799)
men
<0582>
unto him, and became captain
<08269>
over a band
<01416>_,
when David
<01732>
slew
<02026> (8800)
them [of Zobah]: and they went
<03212> (8799)
to Damascus
<01834>_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
therein, and reigned
<04427> (8799)
in Damascus
<01834>_.
11:25
And he was an adversary
<07854>
to Israel
<03478>
all the days
<03117>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
beside the mischief
<07451>
that Hadad
<01908>
[did]: and he abhorred
<06973> (8799)
Israel
<03478>_,
and reigned
<04427> (8799)
over Syria
<0758>_.
11:26
And Jeroboam
<03379>
the son
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_,
an Ephrathite
<0673>
of Zereda
<06868>_,
Solomon's
<08010>
servant
<05650>_,
whose mother's
<0517>
name
<08034>
[was] Zeruah
<06871>_,
a widow
<0490>
woman
<0802>_,
even he lifted up
<07311> (8686)
[his] hand
<03027>
against the king
<04428>_.
11:27
And this [was] the cause
<01697>
that he lifted up
<07311> (8689)
[his] hand
<03027>
against the king
<04428>_:
Solomon
<08010>
built
<01129> (8804)
Millo
<04407>_,
[and] repaired
<05462> (8804)
the breaches
<06556>
of the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
{repaired: Heb. closed}
11:28
And the man
<0376>
Jeroboam
<03379>
[was] a mighty man
<01368>
of valour
<02428>_:
and Solomon
<08010>
seeing
<07200> (8799)
the young man
<05288>
that he was industrious
<06213> (8802) <04399>_,
he made him ruler
<06485> (8686)
over all the charge
<05447>
of the house
<01004>
of Joseph
<03130>_.
{was industrious: Heb. did work} {charge: Heb. burden}
11:29
And it came to pass at that time
<06256>
when Jeroboam
<03379>
went out
<03318> (8804)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that the prophet
<05030>
Ahijah
<0281>
the Shilonite
<07888>
found
<04672> (8799)
him in the way
<01870>_;
and he had clad
<03680> (8693)
himself with a new
<02319>
garment
<08008>_;
and they two
<08147>
[were] alone in the field
<07704>_:
11:30
And Ahijah
<0281>
caught
<08610> (8799)
the new
<02319>
garment
<08008>
that [was] on him, and rent
<07167> (8799)
it [in] twelve
<08147> <06240>
pieces
<07168>_:
11:31
And he said
<0559> (8799)
to Jeroboam
<03379>_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
thee ten
<06235>
pieces
<07168>_:
for thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Behold, I will rend
<07167> (8802)
the kingdom
<04467>
out of the hand
<03027>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
and will give
<05414> (8804)
ten
<06235>
tribes
<07626>
to thee:
11:32
(But he shall have one
<0259>
tribe
<07626>
for my servant
<05650>
David's
<01732>
sake, and for Jerusalem's
<03389>
sake, the city
<05892>
which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)
out of all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>:)
11:33
Because that they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and have worshipped
<07812> (8691)
Ashtoreth
<06253>
the goddess
<0430>
of the Zidonians
<06722>_,
Chemosh
<03645>
the god
<0430>
of the Moabites
<04124>_,
and Milcom
<04445>
the god
<0430>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and have not walked
<01980> (8804)
in my ways
<01870>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
[that which is] right
<03477>
in mine eyes
<05869>_,
and [to keep] my statutes
<02708>
and my judgments
<04941>_,
as [did] David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
11:34
Howbeit I will not take
<03947> (8799)
the whole kingdom
<04467>
out of his hand
<03027>_:
but I will make
<07896> (8799)
him prince
<05387>
all the days
<03117>
of his life
<02416>
for David
<01732>
my servant's
<05650>
sake, whom I chose
<0977> (8804)_,
because he kept
<08104> (8804)
my commandments
<04687>
and my statutes
<02708>_:
11:35
But I will take
<03947> (8804)
the kingdom
<04410>
out of his son's
<01121>
hand
<03027>_,
and will give
<05414> (8804)
it unto thee, [even] ten
<06235>
tribes
<07626>_.
11:36
And unto his son
<01121>
will I give
<05414> (8799)
one
<0259>
tribe
<07626>_,
that David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>
may have a light
<05216>
alway
<03117>
before
<06440>
me in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the city
<05892>
which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)
me to put
<07760> (8800)
my name
<08034>
there. {light: Heb. lamp, or, candle}
11:37
And I will take
<03947> (8799)
thee, and thou shalt reign
<04427> (8804)
according to all that thy soul
<05315>
desireth
<0183> (8762)_,
and shalt be king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_.
11:38
And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto all that I command
<06680> (8762)
thee, and wilt walk
<01980> (8804)
in my ways
<01870>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
[that is] right
<03477>
in my sight
<05869>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
my statutes
<02708>
and my commandments
<04687>_,
as David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>
did
<06213> (8804)_;
that I will be with thee, and build
<01129> (8804)
thee a sure
<0539> (8737)
house
<01004>_,
as I built
<01129> (8804)
for David
<01732>_,
and will give
<05414> (8804)
Israel
<03478>
unto thee.
11:39
And I will for this afflict
<06031> (8762)
the seed
<02233>
of David
<01732>_,
but not for ever
<03117>_.
11:40
Solomon
<08010>
sought
<01245> (8762)
therefore to kill
<04191> (8687)
Jeroboam
<03379>_.
And Jeroboam
<03379>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and fled
<01272> (8799)
into Egypt
<04714>_,
unto Shishak
<07895>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and was in Egypt
<04714>
until the death
<04194>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
11:41
And the rest
<03499>
of the acts
<01697>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,
and his wisdom
<02451>_,
[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)
in the book
<05612>
of the acts
<01697>
of Solomon
<08010>_?
{acts: or, words, or, things}
11:42
And the time
<03117>
that Solomon
<08010>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
in Jerusalem
<03389>
over all Israel
<03478>
[was] forty
<0705>
years
<08141>_.
{time: Heb. days}
11:43
And Solomon
<08010>
slept
<07901> (8799)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and was buried
<06912> (8735)
in the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_:
and Rehoboam
<07346>
his son
<01121>
reigned
<04427> (8799)
in his stead. {Rehoboam: Gr. Roboam}
