1. Then Solomon gathered the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the sons of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the city of David, which is Zion.
|
1. Then H227 Solomon H8010 assembled H6950 H853 the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 , and H853 all H3605 the heads H7218 of the tribes H4294 , the chief H5387 of the fathers H1 of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , unto H413 king H4428 Solomon H8010 in Jerusalem H3389 , that they might bring up H5927 H853 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 out of the city H4480 H5892 of David H1732 , which H1931 is Zion H6726 .
|
2. And all the men of Israel were gathered to King Solomon, in the month of Ethanim, at the feast, which is the seventh month.
|
2. And all H3605 the men H376 of Israel H3478 assembled themselves H6950 unto H413 king H4428 Solomon H8010 at the feast H2282 in the month H3391 Ethanim H388 , which H1931 is the seventh H7637 month H2320 .
|
3. And all the elders of Israel came in, and the priests lifted up the ark,
|
3. And all H3605 the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 came H935 , and the priests H3548 took up H5375 H853 the ark H727 .
|
4. and brought up the ark of Jehovah, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, even those the priests and the Levites brought.
|
4. And they brought up H5927 H853 the ark H727 of the LORD H3068 , and the tabernacle H168 of the congregation H4150 , and all H3605 the holy H6944 vessels H3627 that H834 were in the tabernacle H168 , even those did the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 bring up H5927 .
|
5. And King Solomon and all the company of Israel who had assembled to him were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be counted or numbered for multitude.
|
5. And king H4428 Solomon H8010 , and all H3605 the congregation H5712 of Israel H3478 , that were assembled H3259 unto H5921 him, were with H854 him before H6440 the ark H727 , sacrificing H2076 sheep H6629 and oxen H1241 , that H834 could not H3808 be told H5608 nor H3808 numbered H4487 for multitude H4480 H7230 .
|
6. And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah to its place, to the holy place of the house, into the Holy of Holies, to the place of the wings of the cherubs;
|
6. And the priests H3548 brought in H935 H853 the ark H727 of the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 unto H413 his place H4725 , into H413 the oracle H1687 of the house H1004 , to H413 the most H6944 holy H6944 place, even under H413 H8478 the wings H3671 of the cherubims H3742 .
|
7. for the cherubs were spreading forth their wings to the place of the ark, and the cherubs covered over the ark, and over its staves from above.
|
7. For H3588 the cherubims H3742 spread forth H6566 their two wings H3671 over H413 the place H4725 of the ark H727 , and the cherubims H3742 covered H5526 H5921 the ark H727 and the staves H905 thereof above H4480 H4605 .
|
8. And they lengthened the staves, and the heads of the staves were seen from the holy place on the front of the Holy of Holies, and were not seen outside; and they are there to this day.
|
8. And they drew out H748 the staves H905 , that the ends H7218 of the staves H905 were seen H7200 out H4480 in the holy H6944 place before H5921 H6440 the oracle H1687 , and they were not H3808 seen H7200 without H2351 : and there H8033 they are H1961 unto H5704 this H2088 day H3117 .
|
9. Nothing was in the ark, only the two tables of stone which Moses put there in Horeb, when Jehovah cut a covenant with the sons of Israel as they went out of the land of Egypt.
|
9. There was nothing H369 in the ark H727 save H7535 the two H8147 tables H3871 of stone H68 , which H834 Moses H4872 put H5117 there H8033 at Horeb H2722 , when H834 the LORD H3068 made H3772 a covenant with H5973 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , when they came out H3318 of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
10. And it happened as the priests went out from the Holy of Holies, that the cloud filled the house of Jehovah,
|
10. And it came to pass H1961 , when the priests H3548 were come out H3318 of H4480 the holy H6944 place , that the cloud H6051 filled H4390 H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 ,
|
11. and the priests were not able to stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of Jehovah had filled the house of Jehovah.
|
11. So that the priests H3548 could H3201 not H3808 stand H5975 to minister H8334 because H4480 H6440 of the cloud H6051 : for H3588 the glory H3519 of the LORD H3068 had filled H4390 H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
12. And Solomon said, Jehovah has said that He would dwell in the thick darkness.
|
12. Then H227 spoke H559 Solomon H8010 , The LORD H3068 said H559 that he would dwell H7931 in the thick darkness H6205 .
|
13. Building I have built a house of loftiness for You, a settled place for You to abide in forever.
|
13. I have surely built H1129 H1129 thee a house H1004 to dwell in H2073 , a settled place H4349 for thee to abide in H3427 forever H5769 .
|
14. And the king turned around his face and blessed the whole assembly of Israel; and all the assembly of Israel was standing.
|
14. And the king H4428 turned H5437 H853 his face H6440 about , and blessed H1288 H853 all H3605 the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 : (and all H3605 the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 stood H5975 ;)
|
15. And he said, Blessed be Jehovah, God of Israel, who spoke by His mouth with my father David, and by his hand has fulfilled it, saying,
|
15. And he said H559 , Blessed H1288 be the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 , which H834 spoke H1696 with his mouth H6310 unto H854 David H1732 my father H1 , and hath with his hand H3027 fulfilled H4390 it , saying H559 ,
|
16. From the day that I brought out My people, even Israel, from Egypt, I have not chosen a city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house for My name to be there; but I chose David to be over My people Israel.
|
16. Since H4480 the day H3117 that H834 I brought forth H3318 H853 my people H5971 H853 Israel H3478 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 , I chose H977 no H3808 city H5892 out of all H4480 H3605 the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to build H1129 a house H1004 , that my name H8034 might be H1961 therein H8033 ; but I chose H977 David H1732 to be H1961 over H5921 my people H5971 Israel H3478 .
|
17. And it was in the heart of my father David to build a house for the name of Jehovah, God of Israel;
|
17. And it was H1961 in H5973 the heart H3824 of David H1732 my father H1 to build H1129 a house H1004 for the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 .
|
18. and Jehovah said to my father David, Because it has been in your heart to build a house for My name, you have done well that it has been in your heart;
|
18. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 David H1732 my father H1 , Whereas H3282 H834 it was H1961 in H5973 thine heart H3824 to build H1129 a house H1004 unto my name H8034 , thou didst well H2895 that H3588 it was H1961 in H5973 thine heart H3824 .
|
19. only, you shall not build the house, but your son who shall come out from your loins, he shall build the house for My name.
|
19. Nevertheless H7535 thou H859 shalt not H3808 build H1129 the house H1004 ; but H3588 H518 thy son H1121 that shall come forth H3318 out of thy loins H4480 H2504 , he H1931 shall build H1129 the house H1004 unto my name H8034 .
|
20. And Jehovah has lifted up His Word that He spoke; for I have risen up instead of my father David and sit on the throne of Israel, as Jehovah spoke, and have built the house for the name of Jehovah the God of Israel;
|
20. And the LORD H3068 hath performed H6965 H853 his word H1697 that H834 he spoke H1696 , and I am risen up H6965 in the room H8478 of David H1732 my father H1 , and sit H3427 on H5921 the throne H3678 of Israel H3478 , as H834 the LORD H3068 promised H1696 , and have built H1129 a house H1004 for the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 .
|
21. and set there a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of Jehovah which He made with our fathers when He brought them out from the land of Egypt.
|
21. And I have set H7760 there H8033 a place H4725 for the ark H727 , wherein H834 H8033 is the covenant H1285 of the LORD H3068 , which H834 he made H3772 with H5973 our fathers H1 , when he brought them out H3318 H853 of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 .
|
22. And Solomon stood before the altar of Jehovah, across from the assembly of Israel, and spread his hands toward the heavens;
|
22. And Solomon H8010 stood H5975 before H6440 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 in the presence H5048 of all H3605 the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 , and spread forth H6566 his hands H3709 toward heaven H8064 :
|
23. and said, Jehovah, God of Israel, there is no God like You in the heavens above or on the earth beneath; who keeps covenant and mercy with Your servants that walk before You with all their heart;
|
23. And he said H559 , LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 , there is no H369 God H430 like thee H3644 , in heaven H8064 above H4480 H4605 , or on H5921 earth H776 beneath H4480 H8478 , who keepest H8104 covenant H1285 and mercy H2617 with thy servants H5650 that walk H1980 before H6440 thee with all H3605 their heart H3820 :
|
24. who have kept for Your servant David, my father, that which You spoke to him; yea, You spoke with Your mouth, and with Your hand have fulfilled it as it is this day.
|
24. Who H834 hast kept H8104 with thy servant H5650 David H1732 my father H1 H853 that H834 thou promisedst H1696 him : thou spakest H1696 also with thy mouth H6310 , and hast fulfilled H4390 it with thine hand H3027 , as it is this H2088 day H3117 .
|
25. And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, keep for Your servant David, my father, that which You spoke to him, saying, There shall not be cut off from you a man from before Me, sitting on the throne of Israel; only, if your sons watch their way, to walk before Me as you have walked before Me.
|
25. Therefore now H6258 , LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 , keep H8104 with thy servant H5650 David H1732 my father H1 H853 that H834 thou promisedst H1696 him, saying H559 , There shall not H3808 fail H3772 thee a man H376 in my sight H4480 H6440 to sit H3427 on H5921 the throne H3678 of Israel H3478 ; so H7535 that H518 thy children H1121 take heed to H8104 H853 their way H1870 , that they walk H1980 before H6440 me as H834 thou hast walked H1980 before H6440 me.
|
26. And now, O God of Israel, let it be established, I beseech You, Your Word which You have spoken to Your servant, my father David.
|
26. And now H6258 , O God H430 of Israel H3478 , let thy word H1697 , I pray thee H4994 , be verified H539 , which H834 thou spakest H1696 unto thy servant H5650 David H1732 my father H1 .
|
27. But will God in truth dwell on the earth? Behold, the heavens and Heaven of the heavens cannot contain You; how much less this house which I have built!
|
27. But H3588 will God H430 indeed H552 dwell H3427 on H5921 the earth H776 ? behold H2009 , the heaven H8064 and heaven H8064 of heavens H8064 cannot H3808 contain H3557 thee ; how much less H637 H3588 this H2088 house H1004 that H834 I have built H1129 ?
|
28. Yet You have turned toward the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, O Jehovah my God, to listen to the cry and to the prayer which Your servant is praying before You today;
|
28. Yet have thou respect H6437 unto H413 the prayer H8605 of thy servant H5650 , and to H413 his supplication H8467 , O LORD H3068 my God H430 , to hearken H8085 unto H413 the cry H7440 and to H413 the prayer H8605 , which H834 thy servant H5650 prayeth H6419 before H6440 thee today H3117 :
|
29. for Your eyes are open toward this house night and day, toward the place of which You have said, My name shall be there; to listen to the prayer which Your servant prays toward this place.
|
29. That thine eyes H5869 may be H1961 open H6605 toward H413 this H2088 house H1004 night H3915 and day H3117 , even toward H413 the place H4725 of which H834 thou hast said H559 , My name H8034 shall be H1961 there H8033 : that thou mayest hearken H8085 unto H413 the prayer H8605 which H834 thy servant H5650 shall make H6419 toward H413 this H2088 place H4725 .
|
30. And You shall listen to the supplication of Your servant, and of Your people Israel when they shall pray toward this place; yea, You shall listen in Your dwelling-place, in Heaven; and You shall hear and shall forgive.
|
30. And hearken H8085 thou to H413 the supplication H8467 of thy servant H5650 , and of thy people H5971 Israel H3478 , when H834 they shall pray H6419 toward H413 this H2088 place H4725 : and hear H8085 thou H859 in H413 heaven H8064 thy dwelling H3427 place H4725 : and when thou hearest H8085 , forgive H5545 .
|
31. If any man sins against his neighbor, and an oath be exacted of him to cause him to swear, and the oath has come before Your altar in this house,
|
31. H853 If H834 any man H376 trespass H2398 against his neighbor H7453 , and an oath H423 be laid H5377 upon him to cause him to swear H422 , and the oath H422 come H935 before H6440 thine altar H4196 in this H2088 house H1004 :
|
32. then You shall hear in Heaven, and shall act, and shall judge Your servants, to declare the wicked to be wicked, to put his way on his head, and to declare the righteous to be righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
|
32. Then hear H8085 thou H859 in heaven H8064 , and do H6213 , and judge H8199 H853 thy servants H5650 , condemning H7561 the wicked H7563 , to bring H5414 his way H1870 upon his head H7218 ; and justifying H6663 the righteous H6662 , to give H5414 him according to his righteousness H6666 .
|
33. When Your people Israel are stricken before the enemy, when they sin against You, if they turn again to You, and confess Your name, and pray and make supplication to You in this house;
|
33. When thy people H5971 Israel H3478 be smitten down H5062 before H6440 the enemy H341 , because H834 they have sinned H2398 against thee , and shall turn again H7725 to H413 thee , and confess H3034 H853 thy name H8034 , and pray H6419 , and make supplication H2603 unto H413 thee in this H2088 house H1004 :
|
34. then You shall hear in Heaven, and shall forgive the sin of Your people Israel, and shall bring them back to the land that You gave to their fathers.
|
34. Then hear H8085 thou H859 in heaven H8064 , and forgive H5545 the sin H2403 of thy people H5971 Israel H3478 , and bring them again H7725 unto H413 the land H127 which H834 thou gavest H5414 unto their fathers H1 .
|
35. When the heavens are restrained, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against You, and they have prayed toward this place, and confess Your name, and have turned from their sin because You have afflicted them,
|
35. When heaven H8064 is shut up H6113 , and there is H1961 no H3808 rain H4306 , because H3588 they have sinned H2398 against thee ; if they pray H6419 toward H413 this H2088 place H4725 , and confess H3034 H853 thy name H8034 , and turn H7725 from their sin H4480 H2403 , when H3588 thou afflictest H6031 them:
|
36. then You shall hear in Heaven, and shall forgive the sin of Your servants, and of Your people Israel, for You shall teach them the good way in which they shall go, and shall give rain on Your land which You have given to Your people for an inheritance.
|
36. Then hear H8085 thou H859 in heaven H8064 , and forgive H5545 the sin H2403 of thy servants H5650 , and of thy people H5971 Israel H3478 , that H3588 thou teach H3384 them H853 the H834 good H2896 way H1870 wherein they should walk H1980 , and give H5414 rain H4306 upon H5921 thy land H776 , which H834 thou hast given H5414 to thy people H5971 for an inheritance H5159 .
|
37. When there is famine in the land; when there is pestilence, blasting, mildew, locusts; when there is the stripping locust; when its enemy has distressed it in the land in its gates; any plague, any sickness,
|
37. If H3588 there be H1961 in the land H776 famine H7458 , if H3588 there be H1961 pestilence H1698 , blasting H7711 , mildew H3420 , locust H697 , or if H3588 there be H1961 caterpillar H2625 ; if H3588 their enemy H341 besiege H6887 them in the land H776 of their cities H8179 ; whatsoever H3605 plague H5061 , whatsoever H3605 sickness H4245 there be ;
|
38. any prayer, any supplication that shall come from any man of all of Your people Israel, who shall each know the plague of his own heart, and shall spread his hands toward this house,
|
38. What H3605 prayer H8605 and supplication H8467 soever H3605 H834 be H1961 made by any H3605 man H120 , or by all H3605 thy people H5971 Israel H3478 , which H834 shall know H3045 every man H376 the plague H5061 of his own heart H3824 , and spread forth H6566 his hands H3709 toward H413 this H2088 house H1004 :
|
39. then You shall hear in Heaven Your dwellingplace and shall forgive and shall act, and shall give to each according to all his ways, whose heart You know (for You have known, You alone, the heart of all the sons of Adam),
|
39. Then hear H8085 thou H859 in heaven H8064 thy dwelling H3427 place H4349 , and forgive H5545 , and do H6213 , and give H5414 to every man H376 according to H3605 his ways H1870 , whose H834 H853 heart H3824 thou knowest H3045 ; ( for H3588 thou H859 , even thou only H905 , knowest H3045 H853 the hearts H3824 of all H3605 the children H1121 of men H120 ;)
|
40. so that they shall fear You all the days that they are living on the face of the land that You have given to our fathers.
|
40. That H4616 they may fear H3372 thee all H3605 the days H3117 that H834 they H1992 live H2416 in H5921 H6440 the land H127 which H834 thou gavest H5414 unto our fathers H1 .
|
41. And also, to the alien who is not of Your people Israel, and has come from a land afar off for Your name's sake,
|
41. Moreover H1571 concerning H413 a stranger H5237 , that H834 is not H3808 of thy people H4480 H5971 Israel H3478 , but cometh H935 out of a far country H4480 H776 H7350 for thy name's sake H4616 H8034 ;
|
42. (for they shall hear of Your great name, and of Your strong hand, and of Your stretched out arm, and he shall have come in and prayed toward this house,)
|
42. ( For H3588 they shall hear of H8085 H853 thy great H1419 name H8034 , and of thy strong H2389 hand H3027 , and of thy stretched out H5186 arm H2220 ;) when he shall come H935 and pray H6419 toward H413 this H2088 house H1004 ;
|
43. You shall hear in Heaven, Your dwellingplace, and shall do according to all that the stranger calls to You for, so that all the peoples of the earth may know Your name, to fear You like Your people Israel, and to know that Your name has been called on this house which I have built.
|
43. Hear H8085 thou H859 in heaven H8064 thy dwelling H3427 place H4349 , and do H6213 according to all H3605 that H834 the stranger H5237 calleth H7121 to H413 thee for: that H4616 all H3605 people H5971 of the earth H776 may know H3045 H853 thy name H8034 , to fear H3372 thee , as do thy people H5971 Israel H3478 ; and that they may know H3045 that H3588 this H2088 house H1004 , which H834 I have built H1129 , is called H7121 by H5921 thy name H8034 .
|
44. If Your people shall go out to battle against its enemy, in the way that You have sent them, and they have prayed to Jehovah the way of the city which You have chosen, and of the house which I have built for Your name,
|
44. If H3588 thy people H5971 go out H3318 to battle H4421 against H5921 their enemy H341 , whithersoever H1870 H834 thou shalt send H7971 them , and shall pray H6419 unto H413 the LORD H3068 toward H1870 the city H5892 which H834 thou hast chosen H977 , and toward the house H1004 that H834 I have built H1129 for thy name H8034 :
|
45. then hear their prayer and their supplication in Heaven, and perform their cause.
|
45. Then hear H8085 thou in heaven H8064 H853 their prayer H8605 and their supplication H8467 , and maintain H6213 their cause H4941 .
|
46. When they sin against You (for there is not a man who does not sin) and You have been angry with them, and have given them up before an enemy, and they have been led away into captivity to the land of the enemy, far off or near;
|
46. If H3588 they sin H2398 against thee, ( for H3588 there is no H369 man H120 that H834 sinneth H2398 not H3808 ,) and thou be angry H599 with them , and deliver H5414 them to H6440 the enemy H341 , so that they carry them away H7617 captives H7617 unto H413 the land H776 of the enemy H341 , far H7350 or H176 near H7138 ;
|
47. and they have turned their heart back in the land where they have been taken captive, and have repented, and made supplication to You in the land of their captors, saying, We have sinned and done perversely; we have done wickedly;

47. Yet if they shall bethink themselves H7725 H413 H3820 in the land H776 whither H834 H8033 they were carried captives H7617 , and repent H7725 , and make supplication H2603 unto H413 thee in the land H776 of them that carried them captives H7617 , saying H559 , We have sinned H2398 , and have done perversely H5753 , we have committed wickedness H7561 ;
|
48. and, they have turned back to You with all their heart, and with all their soul, in the land of their enemies who have taken them captive, and have prayed to You the way of their land which You gave to their fathers, the city which You have chosen, and the house which I have built for Your name,
|
48. And so return H7725 unto H413 thee with all H3605 their heart H3824 , and with all H3605 their soul H5315 , in the land H776 of their enemies H341 , which H834 led them away captive H7617 H853 , and pray H6419 unto H413 thee toward H1870 their land H776 , which H834 thou gavest H5414 unto their fathers H1 , the city H5892 which H834 thou hast chosen H977 , and the house H1004 which H834 I have built H1129 for thy name H8034 :
|
49. then You shall hear their prayer and their supplication in Heaven Your dwellingplace, and shall perform their cause,
|
49. Then hear H8085 thou H853 their prayer H8605 and their supplication H8467 in heaven H8064 thy dwelling H3427 place H4349 , and maintain H6213 their cause H4941 ,
|
50. and shall forgive Your people who have sinned against You, even all their transgressions which they have transgressed against You, and shall give them mercy before their captors, and they shall have mercy on them.
|
50. And forgive H5545 thy people H5971 that H834 have sinned H2398 against thee , and all H3605 their transgressions H6588 wherein H834 they have transgressed H6586 against thee , and give H5414 them compassion H7356 before H6440 them who carried them captive H7617 , that they may have compassion on H7355 them:
|
51. For they are Your people and Your inheritance, whom You brought out of Egypt, out of the midst of the furnace of iron;
|
51. For H3588 they H1992 be thy people H5971 , and thine inheritance H5159 , which H834 thou broughtest forth H3318 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 , from the midst H4480 H8432 of the furnace H3564 of iron H1270 :
|
52. for Your eyes shall be open to the supplication of Your servant, and to the supplication of Your people Israel, to listen to them in all that they call to You for;
|
52. That thine eyes H5869 may be H1961 open H6605 unto H413 the supplication H8467 of thy servant H5650 , and unto H413 the supplication H8467 of thy people H5971 Israel H3478 , to hearken H8085 unto H413 them in all H3605 that they call H7121 for unto H413 thee.
|
53. for You have separated them to Yourself for an inheritance out of all the peoples of the earth, as You spoke by the hand of Your servant Moses when You brought out our fathers from Egypt, O Lord Jehovah.
|
53. For H3588 thou H859 didst separate H914 them from among all H4480 H3605 the people H5971 of the earth H776 , to be thine inheritance H5159 , as H834 thou spakest H1696 by the hand H3027 of Moses H4872 thy servant H5650 , when thou broughtest H3318 H853 our fathers H1 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 , O Lord H136 GOD H3068 .
|
54. And it happened as Solomon finished praying to Jehovah all this prayer and supplication, he arose from before the altar of Jehovah, from bending on his knees, and his hands spread out to Heaven;
|
54. And it was H1961 so , that when Solomon H8010 had made an end H3615 of praying H6419 H853 all H3605 this H2063 prayer H8605 and supplication H8467 unto H413 the LORD H3068 , he arose H6965 from before H4480 H6440 the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 , from kneeling H4480 H3766 on H5921 his knees H1290 with his hands H3709 spread up H6566 to heaven H8064 .
|
55. and he stood and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying,
|
55. And he stood H5975 , and blessed H1288 H853 all H3605 the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 with a loud H1419 voice H6963 , saying H559 ,
|
56. Blessed be Jehovah who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He has spoken; not one word of all His good Word has fallen, which He spoke by the hand of His servant Moses.
|
56. Blessed H1288 be the LORD H3068 , that H834 hath given H5414 rest H4496 unto his people H5971 Israel H3478 , according to all H3605 that H834 he promised H1696 : there hath not H3808 failed H5307 one H259 word H1697 of all H4480 H3605 his good H2896 promise H1697 , which H834 he promised H1696 by the hand H3027 of Moses H4872 his servant H5650 .
|
57. Jehovah our God is with us as He has been with our fathers; He shall not forsake us or leave us,
|
57. The LORD H3068 our God H430 be H1961 with H5973 us, as H834 he was H1961 with H5973 our fathers H1 : let him not H408 leave H5800 us, nor H408 forsake H5203 us:
|
58. to incline our heart to Himself, to walk in all His ways, and to keep His commands, and His statutes, and His judgments, which He commanded our fathers;
|
58. That he may incline H5186 our hearts H3824 unto H413 him , to walk H1980 in all H3605 his ways H1870 , and to keep H8104 his commandments H4687 , and his statutes H2706 , and his judgments H4941 , which H834 he commanded H6680 H853 our fathers H1 .
|
59. and these words of mine which I have prayed before Jehovah be near to Jehovah our God by day and by night, to perform the cause of His servant, and the cause of His people Israel, the matter of each day in its day;
|
59. And let these H428 my words H1697 , wherewith H834 I have made supplication H2603 before H6440 the LORD H3068 , be H1961 nigh H7138 unto H413 the LORD H3068 our God H430 day H3119 and night H3915 , that he maintain H6213 the cause H4941 of his servant H5650 , and the cause H4941 of his people H5971 Israel H3478 at all times H3117 , as the matter H1697 shall require H3117 :
|
60. for all the peoples of the earth know that Jehovah, He is God; there is no other;
|
60. That H4616 all H3605 the people H5971 of the earth H776 may know H3045 that H3588 the LORD H3068 is God H430 , and that there is none H369 else H5750 .
|
61. let your heart therefore be perfect with Jehovah our God, to walk in His statutes, and to keep His commandments, as at this day.
|
61. Let your heart H3824 therefore be H1961 perfect H8003 with H5973 the LORD H3068 our God H430 , to walk H1980 in his statutes H2706 , and to keep H8104 his commandments H4687 , as at this H2088 day H3117 .
|
62. And the king and all Israel with him were offering a sacrifice before Jehovah;
|
62. And the king H4428 , and all H3605 Israel H3478 with H5973 him, offered H2076 sacrifice H2077 before H6440 the LORD H3068 .
|
63. and Solomon offered the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he had offered to Jehovah: twenty two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep; and the king and all the sons of Israel dedicated the house of Jehovah.
|
63. And Solomon H8010 offered H2076 H853 a sacrifice H2077 of peace offerings H8002 , which H834 he offered H2076 unto the LORD H3068 , two H8147 and twenty H6242 thousand H505 oxen H1241 , and a hundred H3967 and twenty H6242 thousand H505 sheep H6629 . So the king H4428 and all H3605 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 dedicated H2596 H853 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
64. On that day the king sanctified the middle of the court that was before the house of Jehovah, for he had made the burnt offering there, and the food offering, and the fat of the peace offerings; because the bronze altar that was before Jehovah was too small to contain the burnt offering, and the food offering, and the fat of the peace offerings.
|
64. The same H1931 day H3117 did the king H4428 hallow H6942 H853 the middle H8432 of the court H2691 that H834 was before H6440 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 : for H3588 there H8033 he offered H6213 H853 burnt offerings H5930 , and meat offerings H4503 , and the fat H2459 of the peace offerings H8002 : because H3588 the brazen H5178 altar H4196 that H834 was before H6440 the LORD H3068 was too little H6996 to receive H4480 H3557 H853 the burnt offerings H5930 , and meat offerings H4503 , and the fat H2459 of the peace offerings H8002 .
|
65. And at that time Solomon made a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath to the river of Egypt, before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days, fourteen days.
|
65. And at that H1931 time H6256 Solomon H8010 held H6213 H853 a feast H2282 , and all H3605 Israel H3478 with H5973 him , a great H1419 congregation H6951 , from the entering in H4480 H935 of Hamath H2574 unto H5704 the river H5158 of Egypt H4714 , before H6440 the LORD H3068 our God H430 , seven H7651 days H3117 and seven H7651 days H3117 , even fourteen H702 H6240 days H3117 .
|
66. On the eighth day he sent the people away, and they blessed the king, and went to their tents rejoicing and joyous of heart for all the good that Jehovah had done to His servant David, and to His people Israel.
|
66. On the eighth H8066 day H3117 he sent H7971 H853 the people H5971 away : and they blessed H1288 H853 the king H4428 , and went H1980 unto their tents H168 joyful H8056 and glad H2896 of heart H3820 for H5921 all H3605 the goodness H2896 that H834 the LORD H3068 had done H6213 for David H1732 his servant H5650 , and for Israel H3478 his people H5971 .
