And Hiram king of Tyre sendeth his servants unto Solomon ,
for he heard that they had anointed him for king instead of his father ,
for Hiram was a lover of David all the days ;
ylt @
1Kings:5:2 @
and Solomon sendeth unto Hiram ,
saying ,
ylt @
1Kings:5:3 @'
Thou hast known David my father ,
that he hath not been able to build a house to the name of Jehovah his God ,
because of the wars that have been round about him ,
till Jehovah '
s putting them under the soles of his feet .
ylt @
1Kings:5:4 @'
And now ,
Jehovah my God hath given rest to me round about ,
there is no adversary nor evil occurrence ,
ylt @
1Kings:5:5 @
and lo ,
I am saying to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God ,
as Jehovah spake unto David my father ,
saying ,
Thy son whom I appoint in thy stead on thy throne ,
he doth build the house for My name .
ylt @
1Kings:5:6 @'
And now ,
command ,
and they cut down for me cedars out of Lebanon ,
and my servants are with thy servants ,
and the hire of thy servants I give to thee according to all that thou sayest ,
for thou hast known that there is not among us a man acquainted with cutting wood ,
like the Sidonians .'
ylt @
1Kings:5:7 @
And it cometh to pass at Hiram '

saying ,
I have heard that which thou hast sent unto me ,

my servants bring down from Lebanon to the sea ,
and I make them floats in the sea unto the place that thou sendest unto me ,

up ,

to give the food of my house .'

Thus he hath made the ten bases ;

ylt @
1Kings:7:46 @
In the circuit of the Jordan hath the king cast them ,
in the thick soil of the ground ,
between Succoth and Zarthan .
ylt @
1Kings:7:47 @
And Solomon placeth the whole of the vessels ;
because of the very great abundance ,
the weight of the brass hath not been searched out .
ylt @
1Kings:7:48 @
And Solomon maketh all the vessels that [

for ]
the house of Jehovah ,
and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father ;
the silver ,
and the gold ,
and the vessels he hath put in the treasuries of the house of Jehovah .
ylt @
1Kings:8:1 @
Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel ,
and all the heads of the tribes ,
princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel ,
unto king Solomon ,
to Jerusalem ,
to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David --
it [
is ]
Zion ;
ylt @
1Kings:8:2 @
and all the men of Israel are assembled unto king Solomon ,
in the month of Ethanim ,
in the festival -- [
is ]
the seventh month .
ylt @
1Kings:8:3 @
And all the elders of Israel come in ,
and the priests lift up the ark ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:4 @
and bring up the ark of Jehovah ,
and the tent of meeting ,
and all the holy vessels that [
are ]
in the tent ,
yea ,
the priests and the Levites bring them up .
ylt @
1Kings:8:5 @
And king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are met unto him [
are ]
with him before the ark ,
sacrificing sheep and oxen ,
that are not counted nor numbered for multitude .
ylt @
1Kings:8:6 @
And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place ,
unto the oracle of the house ,
unto the holy of holies ,
unto the place of the wings of the cherubs ;
ylt @
1Kings:8:7 @
for the cherubs are spreading forth two wings unto the place of the ark ,
and the cherubs cover over the ark ,
and over its staves from above ;
ylt @
1Kings:8:8 @
and they lengthen the staves ,
and the heads of the staves are seen from the holy [
place ]
on the front of the oracle ,
and are not seen without ,
and they are there unto this day .
ylt @
1Kings:8:9 @
There is nothing in the ark ,
only the two tables of stone which Moses put there in Horeb ,
when Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel in their going out of the land of Egypt .
ylt @
1Kings:8:10 @
And it cometh to pass ,
in the going out of the priests from the holy [
place ],
that the cloud hath filled the house of Jehovah ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:11 @
and the priests have not been able to stand to minister because of the cloud ,
for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of Jehovah .
ylt @
1Kings:8:12 @
Then said Solomon , '
Jehovah hath said to dwell in thick darkness ;
ylt @
1Kings:8:13 @
I have surely built a house of habitation for Thee ;
a fixed place for Thine abiding to the ages .'
ylt @
1Kings:8:14 @
And the king turneth round his face ,
and blesseth the whole assembly of Israel ;
and all the assembly of Israel is standing .
ylt @
1Kings:8:15 @
And he saith , '
Blessed [
is ]
Jehovah ,
God of Israel ,
who spake by His mouth with David my father ,
and by His hand hath fulfilled [
it ],
saying ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:16 @
From the day that I brought out My people ,
even Israel ,
from Egypt ,
I have not fixed on a city out of all the tribes of Israel ,
to build a house for My name being there ;
and I fix on David to be over My people Israel .
ylt @
1Kings:8:17 @'
And it is with the heart of David my father to build a house for the name of Jehovah ,
God of Israel ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:18 @
and Jehovah saith unto David my father ,
Because that it hath been with thy heart to build a house for My name ,
thou hast done well that it hath been with thy heart ;
ylt @
1Kings:8:19 @
only ,
thou dost not build the house ,
but thy son who is coming out from thy loins ,
he doth build the house for My name .
ylt @
1Kings:8:20 @'
And Jehovah doth establish His word which He spake ,
and I am risen up instead of David my father ,
and sit on the throne of Israel ,
as Jehovah spake ,
and build the house for the name of Jehovah ,
God of Israel ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:21 @
and set there a place for the ark ,
where [
is ]
the covenant of Jehovah which He made with our fathers in His bringing them out from the land of Egypt .'
ylt @
1Kings:8:22 @
And Solomon standeth before the altar of Jehovah ,
over-against all the assembly of Israel ,
and spreadeth his hands towards the heavens ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:23 @
and saith , '
Jehovah ,
God of Israel ,
there is not a God like Thee ,
in the heavens above ,
and on the earth beneath ,
keeping the covenant and the kindness for Thy servants ,
those walking before Thee with all their heart ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:24 @
who hast kept for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him ;
yea ,
Thou speakest with Thy mouth ,
and with Thy hand hast fulfilled [
it ],
as [

this day .
ylt @
1Kings:8:25 @'
And now ,
Jehovah ,
God of Israel ,
keep for Thy servant David my father that which Thou spakest to him ,
saying ,
There is not cut off to thee a man from before Me ,
sitting on the throne of Israel --
only ,
if thy sons watch their way ,
to walk before Me as thou hast walked before Me .
ylt @
1Kings:8:26 @'
And now ,
O God of Israel ,
let it be established ,
I pray Thee ,
Thy word which Thou hast spoken to Thy servant ,
David my father .
ylt @
1Kings:8:27 @
But ,
is it true ? --
God dwelleth on the earth !
lo ,
the heavens ,
and the heavens of the heavens do not contain Thee ,
how much less this house which I have builded !
ylt @
1Kings:8:28 @'
Then thou hast turned unto the prayer of Thy servant ,
and unto his supplication ,
O Jehovah my God ,
to hearken unto the cry and unto the prayer which Thy servant is praying before Thee to-day ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:29 @
for Thine eyes being open towards this house night and day ,
towards the place of which Thou hast said ,
My Name is there ;
to hearken unto the prayer which Thy servant prayeth towards this place .
ylt @
1Kings:8:30 @'
Then Thou hast hearkened unto the supplication of Thy servant ,
and of Thy people Israel ,
which they pray towards this place ;
yea ,
Thou dost hearken in the place of Thy dwelling ,
in the heavens --
and Thou hast hearkened ,
and hast forgiven ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:31 @
that which a man sinneth against his neighbour ,
and he hath lifted up upon him an oath to cause him to swear ,
and the oath hath come in before Thine altar in this house ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:32 @
then Thou dost hear in the heavens ,
and hast done ,
and hast judged Thy servants ,
to declare wicked the wicked ,
to put his way on his head ,
and to declare righteous the righteous ,
to give him according to his righteousness .
ylt @
1Kings:8:33 @'
In Thy people Israel being smitten before an enemy ,
because they sin against Thee ,
and they have turned back unto Thee ,
and have confessed Thy name ,
and prayed ,
and made supplication unto Thee in this house ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:34 @
then thou dost hear in the heavens ,
and hast forgiven the sin of Thy people Israel ,
and brought them back unto the ground that Thou gavest to their fathers .
ylt @
1Kings:8:35 @'
In the heavens being restrained ,
and there is no rain ,
because they sin against Thee ,
and they have prayed towards this place ,
and confessed Thy name ,
and from their sin turn back ,
for Thou dost afflict them ,
ylt @
1Kings:8:36 @
then Thou dost hear in the heavens ,
and hast forgiven the sin of Thy servants ,
and of Thy people Israel ,
for Thou directest them the good way in which they go ,
and hast given rain on Thy land which Thou hast given to Thy people for inheritance .

Famine --

pestilence --

the settled place of Thy dwelling ,

Thyself alone --
the heart of all the sons of man ),

And also ,

Thou dost hear in the heavens ,
the settled place of Thy dwelling ,

When Thy people doth go out to battle against its enemy ,
in the way that Thou dost send them ,
and they have prayed unto Jehovah the way of the city which thou hast fixed on ,
and of the house which I have builded for Thy name ;
ylt @
1Kings:8:45 @
then Thou hast heard in the heavens their prayer and their supplication ,

When they sin against Thee (
for there is not a man who sinneth not ),
and Thou hast been angry with them ,
and hast given them up before an enemy ,
and they have taken captive their captivity unto the land of the enemy far off or near ;
ylt @

and they have turned [

back unto their heart in the land whither they have been taken captive ,

We have sinned and done perversely --

On that day hath the king sanctified the middle of the court that [

too little to contain the burnt-offering ,
