American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh,The tent which he placed among men;
And delivered his strength into captivity,And his glory into the adversary's hand.
He gave his people over also unto the sword,And was wroth with his inheritance.
Fire devoured their young men;And their virgins had no marriage-song.
Their priests fell by the sword;And their widows made no lamentation.
Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep,Like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine.
And he smote his adversaries backward:He put them to a perpetual reproach.
Moreover he refused the tent of Joseph,And chose not the tribe of Ephraim,
But chose the tribe of Judah,The mount Zion which he loved.
And he built his sanctuary like the heights,Like the earth which he hath established for ever.
He chose David also his servant,And took him from the sheepfolds:
From following the ewes that have their young he brought him,To be the shepherd of Jacob his people, and Israel his inheritance.
So he was their shepherd according to the integrity of his heart,And guided them by the skilfulness of his hands.
So Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for there was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of Jehovah had made in the wilderness.
So Solomon came {So Septuagint, Vulagte and Syriac The Hebrew: has, to.}from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, unto Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.
But Solomon built him a house.
Howbeit the Most High dwelleth not in houses made with hands; as saith the prophet,
{Isaiah 66:1 f.}The heaven is my throne,And the earth the footstool of my feet:What manner of house will ye build me? saith the Lord:Or what is the place of my rest?
Did not my hand make all these things?
The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, saith Jehovah of hosts; and in this place will I give peace, saith Jehovah of hosts.
