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
<06213> (8800)

all the work
<04399>

that he made
<06213> (8804)

king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

for the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

{And Hiram: Heb. And Hirom}

7:41

The two
<08147>

pillars
<05982>_,

and the [two] bowls
<01543>

of the chapiters
<03805>

that [were] on the top
<07218>

of the two
<08147>

pillars
<05982>_;

and the two
<08147>

networks
<07639>_,

to cover
<03680> (8763)

the two
<08147>

bowls
<01543>

of the chapiters
<03805>

which [were] upon the top
<07218>

of the pillars
<05982>_;

7:42

And four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

pomegranates
<07416>

for the two
<08147>

networks
<07639>_,

[even] two
<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>

lavers
<03595>

on the bases
<04350>_;

7:44

And one
<0259>

sea
<03220>_,

and twelve
<08147> <06240>

oxen
<01241>

under the sea
<03220>_;

7:45

And the pots
<05518>_,

and the shovels
<03257>_,

and the basons
<04219>_:

and all these vessels
<03627>_,

which Hiram
<02438>

made
<06213> (8804)

to king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

for the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

[were of] bright
<04178> (8794)

brass
<05178>_.

{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
<04568>

ground
<0127>

between Succoth
<05523>

and Zarthan
<06891>_.

{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
<04948>

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)

all the vessels
<03627>

that [pertained] unto the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

the altar
<04196>

of gold
<02091>_,

and the table
<07979>

of gold
<02091>_,

whereupon the shewbread
<03899> <06440>

[was],

7:49

And the candlesticks
<04501>

of pure
<05462> (8803)

gold
<02091>_,

five
<02568>

on the right
<03225>

[side], and five
<02568>

on the left
<08040>_,

before
<06440>

the oracle
<01687>_,

with the flowers
<06525>_,

and the lamps
<05216>_,

and the tongs
<04457>

[of] gold
<02091>_,

7:50

And the bowls
<05592>_,

and the snuffers
<04212>_,

and the basons
<04219>_,

and the spoons
<03709>_,

and the censers
<04289>

[of] pure
<05462> (8803)

gold
<02091>_;

and the hinges
<06596>

[of] gold
<02091>_,

[both] for the doors
<01817>

of the inner
<06442>

house
<01004>_,

the most
<06944>

holy
<06944>

[place, and] for the doors
<01817>

of the house
<01004>_,

[to wit], of the temple
<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}
