might_bring_up -the_ark_of the_cove- nant_of 'the Lorp out_of the_city_of David, which 7s Zion.
2 And all the_imen_of Israél assem- bled_themselves unto xking Solomon at the feast ‘ein the_month xEthanim, which 7s the seventh xmonth.
3 And all the_elders_of Israél came, and the priests took_up
4 And they brought up «the_ark_of J the Lorp, and the ‘e tabernacle_of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the ‘«tabernacle, even ihose did the priests and the Levites bring_up.
5 And xking Solomon, and all the_con- gregation_of Israél, xthat were_assem- bled unto him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be_told nor tnumbered for multitude.
6 And the priests brought_in -the_ ark_of the_covenant_of / the Lorp unto his place, into the_syoracle_of the house, to the h-most x=holy place, even under the_wings_of the cherubims.
7 For the cherubims -spread_forth their two_wings over the_place_of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the_staves thereof above.
8 And they drew_out the staves, that the_? ends_of the staves were_seen out in the holy place before the sp oracle, and they 'were not seen xwithout; and there they are unto «this xday.
9 There was nothing in the ark save the_two tables_of x=stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when ! the Lorp emade a@ covenant with the_s children_ of Israel, when they came out_of the land of Egypt.
10 And it came_to_pass, when the priests were_come_out of the holy place, that the cloud filled -the_house_ of ! the Lorp,
11 So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the_glory_of J the Lorp had_filled -the_ house_of J the Lorp.
2 Then spake Solomon, “4 The Lorp said that He would_dwell in the thick_ darkness.
183 T have_surely built Thee a house to dwell in, a settled_place for Thee to abide_in for_ever.”
14 And the king turned his -face about, and blessed all the_a congrega- tion_of Israél: (and all the_« congrega- tion_of Israél +stood.)
1s And he said, “Blessed be ! the Lorp =God_of Israel, which spake with His mouth -unto David my father, and -hath with His hand fulfilled 7¢, saying,
16 ‘Since the day that I brought_forth My -people «Israel out_of Egypt, I chose no city out_of all the_tribes_of Israél to build a house, that My name might_be therein; but I chose David to be over My people Israél.’
W And it was in the_heart_of David my father to build a house for the_ name-of ! the Lorp =God_of Israél.
18 And 3 the Lorp said unto David my father, ‘Whereas it_was in thine heart to build a house unto My name, thou didst_well that it_was in thine heart.
19 Nevertheless tho shalt not build
