Thus allH3605 the workH4399 that SolomonH8010 madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was finished:H7999 and SolomonH8010 broughtH935 in all the things that DavidH1732 his fatherH25 had dedicated;H6944 and the silver,H3701 and the gold,H2091 and allH3605 the instruments,H3627 putH5414 he among the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of God.H430
2
ThenH227 SolomonH8010 assembledH6950 the eldersH2205 of Israel,H3478 and allH3605 the headsH7218 of the tribes,H4294 the chiefH5387 of the fathersH1 of the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 to Jerusalem,H3389 to bringH5927 up the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the cityH5892 of David,H1732 whichH1958 is Zion.H6726
3
Why allH3605 the menH376 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 themselves to the kingH4428 in the feastH2282 whichH1931 was in the seventhH7637 month.H2320
4
And allH3605 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 came;H935 and the LevitesH3881 tookH5375 up the ark.H727
5
And they broughtH5927 up the ark,H727 and the tabernacleH168 of the congregation,H4150 and allH3605 the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacle,H168 these did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bringH5927 up.
6
Also kingH4428 Solomon,H8010 and allH3605 the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 that were assembledH3259 to him beforeH6440 the ark,H727 sacrificedH2076 sheepH6629 and oxen,H1241 whichH834 could not be toldH5608 norH3808 numberedH4487 for multitude.H7230
7
And the priestsH3548 broughtH935 in the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 to his place,H4725 to the oracleH1687 of the house,H1004 intoH413 the mostH6944 holyH6944 place, even underH8478 the wingsH3671 of the cherubim:H3742
8
For the cherubimH3742 spreadH6566 forth their wingsH3671 overH5921 the placeH4725 of the ark,H727 and the cherubimH3742 coveredH3680 the arkH727 and the stavesH905 thereof above.H4605
9
And they drewH748 out the stavesH905 of the ark, that the endsH7218 of the stavesH905 were seenH7200 from the arkH727 beforeH5921 H6440 the oracle;H1687 but they were not seenH7200 without.H2351 And thereH8033 it is to thisH2088 day.H3117
10
There was nothingH369 in the arkH727 saveH7535 the twoH8147 tablesH3871 whichH834 MosesH4872 putH5414 therein at Horeb,H2722 whenH834 the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 when they cameH3318 out of Egypt.H4714
11
And it cameH1961 to pass, when the priestsH3548 were comeH3318 out of the holyH6944 place:H4725 (for allH3605 the priestsH3548 that were presentH4672 were sanctified,H6942 and did not then waitH8104 by course:H4256
12
Also the LevitesH3881 which were the singers,H7891 allH3605 of them of Asaph,H623 of Heman,H1968 of Jeduthun,H3038 with their sonsH1121 and their brothers,H251 being arrayedH3847 in white linen,H948 having cymbalsH4700 and psalteriesH5035 and harps,H3658 stoodH5975 at the eastH4217 end of the altar,H4196 and with them an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 priestsH3548 soundingH2690 with trumpets:H2689)
13
It cameH1961 even to pass, as the trumpetersH2689 and singersH7891 were as one,H259 to make oneH259 soundH6963 to be heardH8085 in praisingH1984 and thankingH3034 the LORD;H3068 and when they liftedH7311 up their voiceH6963 with the trumpets and cymbalsH4700 and instrumentsH3627 of music,H7892 and praisedH1984 the LORD,H3068 saying, For he is good;H2896 for his mercyH2617 endures for ever:H5769 that then the houseH1004 was filledH4390 with a cloud,H6051 even the houseH1004 of the LORD;H3068
14
So that the priestsH3548 couldH3201 not standH5975 to ministerH8334 by reasonH6440 of the cloud:H6051 for the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 had filledH4390 the houseH1004 of God.H430
