And the wordH1697 of SamuelH8050 came to all IsraelH3478. Now IsraelH3478 went outH3318 againstH7125 the PhilistinesH6430 to battleH4421, and pitchedH2583 beside EbenezerH72: and the PhilistinesH6430 pitchedH2583 in AphekH663. {came: or, came to pass: Hebr. was}
And the PhilistinesH6430 put themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 IsraelH3478: and when they joinedH5203 battleH4421, IsraelH3478 was smittenH5062 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430: and they slewH5221 of the armyH4634 in the fieldH7704 about fourH702 thousandH505 menH376. {they joined…: Heb. the battle was spread} {army: Heb. array}
And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 into the campH4264, the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 smittenH5062 us to dayH3117 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430? Let us fetchH3947 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of ShilohH7887 unto us, that, when it comethH935 amongH7130 us, it may saveH3467 us out of the handH3709 of our enemiesH341. {fetch: Heb. take unto us}
So the peopleH5971 sentH7971 to ShilohH7887, that they might bringH5375 from thence the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, which dwellethH3427 between the cherubimsH3742: and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were there with the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430.
And when the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 into the campH4264, all IsraelH3478 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, so that the earthH776 rang againH1949.
And when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the shoutH8643, they saidH559, What meaneth the noiseH6963 of this greatH1419 shoutH8643 in the campH4264 of the HebrewsH5680? And they understoodH3045 that the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 was comeH935 into the campH4264.
And the PhilistinesH6430 were afraidH3372, for they saidH559, GodH430 is comeH935 into the campH4264. And they saidH559, WoeH188 unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretoforeH865+H8032. {heretofore: Heb. yesterday, or, the third day}
WoeH188 unto us! who shall deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of these mightyH117 GodsH430? these are the GodsH430 that smoteH5221 the EgyptiansH4714 with all the plaguesH4347 in the wildernessH4057.
Be strongH2388, and quitH1961 yourselves like menH582, O ye PhilistinesH6430, that ye be not servantsH5647 unto the HebrewsH5680, as they have beenH5647 to you: quitH1961 yourselves like menH582, and fightH3898. {quit…: Heb. be men}
And the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898, and IsraelH3478 was smittenH5062, and they fledH5127 every manH376 into his tentH168: and there was a veryH3966 greatH1419 slaughterH4347; for there fellH5307 of IsraelH3478 thirtyH7970 thousandH505 footmenH7273.
And the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947; and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were slainH4191. {were slain: Heb. died}
And there ranH7323 a manH376 of BenjaminH1144 out of the armyH4634, and cameH935 to ShilohH7887 the same dayH3117 with his clothesH4055 rentH7167, and with earthH127 upon his headH7218.
And when he cameH935, lo, EliH5941 satH3427 upon a seatH3678 by the waysideH1870+H3027+H3197 watchingH6822: for his heartH3820 trembledH2730 for the arkH727 of GodH430. And when the manH376 cameH935 into the cityH5892, and toldH5046 it, all the cityH5892 cried outH2199.
And when EliH5941 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the cryingH6818, he saidH559, What meaneth the noiseH6963 of this tumultH1995? And the manH376 cameH935 in hastilyH4116, and toldH5046 EliH5941.
Now EliH5941 was ninetyH8673 and eightH8083 yearsH8141 oldH1121; and his eyesH5869 were dimH6965, that he couldH3201 not seeH7200. {were dim: Heb. stood}
And the manH376 saidH559 unto EliH5941, I am he that cameH935 out of the armyH4634, and I fledH5127 to dayH3117 out of the armyH4634. And he saidH559, What is there doneH1697, my sonH1121? {is…: Heb. is the thing}
And the messengerH1319 answeredH6030 and saidH559, IsraelH3478 is fledH5127 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and there hath been also a greatH1419 slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971, and thy twoH8147 sonsH1121 also, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, are deadH4191, and the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.
And it came to pass, when he made mentionH2142 of the arkH727 of GodH430, that he fellH5307 from off the seatH3678 backwardH322 byH1157 the sideH3027 of the gateH8179, and his neckH4665 brakeH7665, and he diedH4191: for he was an oldH2204 manH376, and heavyH3513. And he had judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
And his daughter in lawH3618, Phinehas'H6372 wifeH802, was with childH2030, near to be deliveredH3205: and when she heardH8085 the tidingsH8052 thatH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947, and that her father in lawH2524 and her husbandH376 were deadH4191, she bowedH3766 herself and travailedH3205; for her painsH6735 cameH2015 upon her. {be delivered: or, cry out} {came: Heb. were turned}
And about the timeH6256 of her deathH4191 the women that stoodH5324 by her saidH1696 unto her, FearH3372 not; for thou hast bornH3205 a sonH1121. But she answeredH6030 not, neither did she regardH7896+H3820 it. {neither…: Heb. set not her heart}
And she namedH7121 the childH5288 IchabodH350, sayingH559, The gloryH3519 is departedH1540 from IsraelH3478: becauseH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947, and because of her father in lawH2524 and her husbandH376. {Ichabod: that is, Where is the glory? or, There is no glory}
And she saidH559, The gloryH3519 is departedH1540 from IsraelH3478: for the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.
Then SolomonH8010 assembledH6950 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and all the headsH7218 of the tribesH4294, the chiefH5387 of the fathersH1 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010 in JerusalemH3389, that they might bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, which is ZionH6726. {chief: Heb. princes}
And all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 themselves unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010 at the feastH2282 in the monthH3391 EthanimH388, which is the seventhH7637 monthH2320.
And all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935, and the priestsH3548 took upH5375 the arkH727.
And they brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, even those did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bring upH5927.
And kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, that were assembledH3259 unto him, were with him beforeH6440 the arkH727, sacrificingH2076 sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, that could not be toldH5608 nor numberedH4487 for multitudeH7230.
And the priestsH3548 brought inH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 unto his placeH4725, into the oracleH1687 of the houseH1004, to the mostH6944 holyH6944 place, even under the wingsH3671 of the cherubimsH3742.
For the cherubimsH3742 spread forthH6566 their two wingsH3671 over the placeH4725 of the arkH727, and the cherubimsH3742 coveredH5526 the arkH727 and the stavesH905 thereof aboveH4605.
And they drew outH748 the stavesH905, that the endsH7218 of the stavesH905 were seen outH7200 in the holyH6944 place beforeH6440 the oracleH1687, and they were not seenH7200 withoutH2351: and there they are unto this dayH3117. {ends: Heb. heads} {holy…: or, ark}
There was nothing in the arkH727 saveH7535 the twoH8147 tablesH3871 of stoneH68, which MosesH4872 putH3240 there at HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {when the: or, where the}
And it came to pass, when the priestsH3548 were come outH3318 of the holyH6944 place, that the cloudH6051 filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068,
So that the priestsH3548 couldH3201 not standH5975 to ministerH8334 becauseH6440 of the cloudH6051: for the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 had filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Then spakeH559 SolomonH8010, The LORDH3068 saidH559 that he would dwellH7931 in the thick darknessH6205.
I have surelyH1129 builtH1129 thee an houseH1004 to dwell inH2073, a settled placeH4349 for thee to abide inH3427 for everH5769.
And the kingH4428 turnedH5437 his faceH6440 aboutH5437, and blessedH1288 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478: (and all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 stoodH5975;)
And he saidH559, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, which spakeH1696 with his mouthH6310 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and hath with his handH3027 fulfilledH4390 it, sayingH559,
Since the dayH3117 that I brought forthH3318 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, I choseH977 no cityH5892 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to buildH1129 an houseH1004, that my nameH8034 might be therein; but I choseH977 DavidH1732 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And it was in the heartH3824 of DavidH1732 my fatherH1 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, WhereasH3282+H834 it was in thine heartH3824 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto my nameH8034, thou didst wellH2895 that it was in thine heartH3824.
NeverthelessH7535 thou shalt not buildH1129 the houseH1004; but thy sonH1121 that shall come forth outH3318 of thy loinsH2504, he shall buildH1129 the houseH1004 unto my nameH8034.
And the LORDH3068 hath performedH6965 his wordH1697 that he spakeH1696, and I am risen upH6965 in the room of DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478, as the LORDH3068 promisedH1696, and have builtH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And I have setH7760 there a placeH4725 for the arkH727, wherein is the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, which he madeH3772 with our fathersH1, when he brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And SolomonH8010 stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 in the presence ofH5048 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709 toward heavenH8064:
And he saidH559, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, there is no GodH430 like thee, in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or on earthH776 beneath, who keepestH8104 covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 with thy servantsH5650 that walkH1980 beforeH6440 thee with all their heartH3820:
Who hast keptH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that thou promisedstH1696 him: thou spakestH1696 also with thy mouthH6310, and hast fulfilledH4390 it with thine handH3027, as it is this dayH3117.
Therefore now, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, keepH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that thou promisedstH1696 him, sayingH559, There shall not failH3772 thee a manH376 in my sightH6440 to sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478; soH7535 that thy childrenH1121 take heedH8104 to their wayH1870, that they walkH3212 beforeH6440 me as thou hast walkedH1980 beforeH6440 me. {fail…: Heb. be cut off unto thee a man from my sight} {so that: Heb. only if}
And now, O GodH430 of IsraelH3478, let thy wordH1697, I pray thee, be verifiedH539, which thou spakestH1696 unto thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1.
But will GodH430 indeedH552 dwellH3427 on the earthH776? behold, the heavenH8064 and heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannot containH3557 thee; how much lessH637 this houseH1004 that I have buildedH1129?
Yet have thou respectH6437 unto the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and to his supplicationH8467, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, to hearkenH8085 unto the cryH7440 and to the prayerH8605, which thy servantH5650 prayethH6419 beforeH6440 thee to dayH3117:
That thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 toward this houseH1004 nightH3915 and dayH3117, even toward the placeH4725 of which thou hast saidH559, My nameH8034 shall be there: that thou mayest hearkenH8085 unto the prayerH8605 which thy servantH5650 shall makeH6419 toward this placeH4725. {toward this place: or, in this place}
And hearkenH8085 thou to the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, when they shall prayH6419 toward this placeH4725: and hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4725: and when thou hearestH8085, forgiveH5545. {toward this place: or, in this place}
If any manH376 trespassH2398 against his neighbourH7453, and an oathH423 be laidH5375 upon him to cause him to swearH422, and the oathH423 comeH935 beforeH6440 thine altarH4196 in this houseH1004: {and an oath…: Heb. and he require an oath of him}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and doH6213, and judgeH8199 thy servantsH5650, condemningH7561 the wickedH7563, to bringH5414 his wayH1870 upon his headH7218; and justifyingH6663 the righteousH6662, to giveH5414 him according to his righteousnessH6666.
When thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be smitten downH5062 beforeH6440 the enemyH341, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee, and shall turn againH7725 to thee, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and prayH6419, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in this houseH1004: {in: or, toward}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and bring them againH7725 unto the landH127 which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1.
When heavenH8064 is shut upH6113, and there is no rainH4306, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee; if they prayH6419 toward this placeH4725, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and turnH7725 from their sinH2403, when thou afflictestH6031 them:
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy servantsH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, that thou teachH3384 them the goodH2896 wayH1870 wherein they should walkH3212, and giveH5414 rainH4306 upon thy landH776, which thou hast givenH5414 to thy peopleH5971 for an inheritanceH5159.
If there be in the landH776 famineH7458, if there be pestilenceH1698, blastingH7711, mildewH3420, locustH697, or if there be caterpillerH2625; if their enemyH341 besiegeH6887 them in the landH776 of their citiesH8179; whatsoever plagueH5061, whatsoever sicknessH4245 there be; {cities: or, jurisdiction}
What prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 soever be made by any manH120, or by all thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, which shall knowH3045 every manH376 the plagueH5061 of his own heartH3824, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709 toward this houseH1004:
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and forgiveH5545, and doH6213, and giveH5414 to every manH376 according to his waysH1870, whose heartH3824 thou knowestH3045; (for thou, even thou only, knowestH3045 the heartsH3824 of all the childrenH1121 of menH120;)
That they may fearH3372 thee all the daysH3117 that they liveH2416 inH6440 the landH127 which thou gavestH5414 unto our fathersH1.
Moreover concerning a strangerH5237, that is not of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, but cometh outH935 of a farH7350 countryH776 forH4616 thy name'sH8034 sake;
(For they shall hearH8085 of thy greatH1419 nameH8034, and of thy strongH2389 handH3027, and of thy stretched outH5186 armH2220;) when he shall comeH935 and prayH6419 toward this houseH1004;
HearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and doH6213 according to all that the strangerH5237 callethH7121 to thee for: that all peopleH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 thy nameH8034, to fearH3372 thee, as do thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; and that they may knowH3045 that this houseH1004, which I have buildedH1129, is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034. {this…: Heb. thy name is called upon this house}
If thy peopleH5971 go outH3318 to battleH4421 against their enemyH341, whithersoeverH1870 thou shalt sendH7971 them, and shall prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 towardH1870 the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and toward the houseH1004 that I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034: {toward the city: Heb. the way of the city}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941. {cause: or, right}
If they sinH2398 against thee, (for there is no manH120 that sinnethH2398 not,) and thou be angryH599 with them, and deliverH5414 them to the enemyH341, so that they carry them awayH7617 captivesH7617 untoH6440 the landH776 of the enemyH341, farH7350 or nearH7138;
Yet if they shall bethinkH7725 themselves in the landH776 whither they were carried captivesH7617, and repentH7725+H3820, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in the landH776 of them that carried them captivesH7617, sayingH559, We have sinnedH2398, and have done perverselyH5753, we have committed wickednessH7561; {bethink…: Heb. bring back to their heart}
And so returnH7725 unto thee with all their heartH3824, and with all their soulH5315, in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, which led them away captiveH7617, and prayH6419 unto thee towardH1870 their landH776, which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1, the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
Then hearH8085 thou their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467 in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941, {cause: or, right}
And forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 that have sinnedH2398 against thee, and all their transgressionsH6588 wherein they have transgressedH6586 against thee, and giveH5414 them compassionH7356 beforeH6440 them who carried them captiveH7617, that they may have compassionH7355 on them:
For they be thy peopleH5971, and thine inheritanceH5159, which thou broughtest forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714, from the midstH8432 of the furnaceH3564 of ironH1270:
That thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 unto the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and unto the supplicationH8467 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, to hearkenH8085 unto them in all that they callH7121 for unto thee.
For thou didst separateH914 them from among all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776, to be thine inheritanceH5159, as thou spakestH1696 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 thy servantH5650, when thou broughtestH3318 our fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, O LordH136 GODH3069.
And it was so, that when SolomonH8010 had made an endH3615 of prayingH6419 all this prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 unto the LORDH3068, he aroseH6965 from beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, from kneelingH3766 on his kneesH1290 with his handsH3709 spread upH6566 to heavenH8064.
And he stoodH5975, and blessedH1288 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, sayingH559,
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068, that hath givenH5414 restH4496 unto his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, according to all that he promisedH1696: there hath not failedH5307 oneH259 wordH1697 of all his goodH2896 promiseH1697, which he promisedH1696 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 his servantH5650. {failed: Heb. fallen}
The LORDH3068 our GodH430 be with us, as he was with our fathersH1: let him not leaveH5800 us, nor forsakeH5203 us:
That he may inclineH5186 our heartsH3824 unto him, to walkH3212 in all his waysH1870, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, and his statutesH2706, and his judgmentsH4941, which he commandedH6680 our fathersH1.
And let these my wordsH1697, wherewith I have made supplicationH2603 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, be nighH7138 unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430 dayH3119 and nightH3915, that he maintainH6213 the causeH4941 of his servantH5650, and the causeH4941 of his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 at all timesH3117+H3117, as the matterH1697 shall require: {at all…: Heb. the thing of a day in his day}
That all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 is GodH430, and that there is none else.
Let your heartH3824 therefore be perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his statutesH2706, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, as at this dayH3117.
And the kingH4428, and all IsraelH3478 with him, offeredH2076 sacrificeH2077 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of peace offeringsH8002, which he offeredH2076 unto the LORDH3068, twoH8147 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 oxenH1241, and an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 sheepH6629. So the kingH4428 and all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 dedicatedH2596 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
The same dayH3117 did the kingH4428 hallowH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002: because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 that was beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 was too littleH6996 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002.
And at that timeH6256 SolomonH8010 heldH6213 a feastH2282, and all IsraelH3478 with him, a greatH1419 congregationH6951, from the enteringH935 in of HamathH2574 unto the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, sevenH7651 daysH3117 and sevenH7651 daysH3117, even fourteenH702+H6240 daysH3117.
On the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971: and they blessedH1288 the kingH4428, and wentH3212 unto their tentsH168 joyfulH8056 and gladH2896 of heartH3820 for all the goodnessH2896 that the LORDH3068 had doneH6213 for DavidH1732 his servantH5650, and for IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971. {blessed: or, thanked}
And it was so, that when SolomonH8010 had made an endH3615 of prayingH6419 all this prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 unto the LORDH3068, he aroseH6965 from beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, from kneelingH3766 on his kneesH1290 with his handsH3709 spread upH6566 to heavenH8064.
The same dayH3117 did the kingH4428 hallowH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002: because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 that was beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 was too littleH6996 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002.
And he stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 in the presence of all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709:
Moreover SolomonH8010 hallowedH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002, because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 was not ableH3201 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and the meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459.
And they brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, even those did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bring upH5927.
And they brought upH5927 the arkH727, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, these did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bring upH5927.
And the wordH1697 of SamuelH8050 came to all IsraelH3478. Now IsraelH3478 went outH3318 againstH7125 the PhilistinesH6430 to battleH4421, and pitchedH2583 beside EbenezerH72: and the PhilistinesH6430 pitchedH2583 in AphekH663. {came: or, came to pass: Hebr. was}
And the PhilistinesH6430 put themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 IsraelH3478: and when they joinedH5203 battleH4421, IsraelH3478 was smittenH5062 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430: and they slewH5221 of the armyH4634 in the fieldH7704 about fourH702 thousandH505 menH376. {they joined…: Heb. the battle was spread} {army: Heb. array}
And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 into the campH4264, the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 smittenH5062 us to dayH3117 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430? Let us fetchH3947 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of ShilohH7887 unto us, that, when it comethH935 amongH7130 us, it may saveH3467 us out of the handH3709 of our enemiesH341. {fetch: Heb. take unto us}
So the peopleH5971 sentH7971 to ShilohH7887, that they might bringH5375 from thence the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, which dwellethH3427 between the cherubimsH3742: and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were there with the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430.
And when the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 into the campH4264, all IsraelH3478 shoutedH7321 with a greatH1419 shoutH8643, so that the earthH776 rang againH1949.
And when the PhilistinesH6430 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the shoutH8643, they saidH559, What meaneth the noiseH6963 of this greatH1419 shoutH8643 in the campH4264 of the HebrewsH5680? And they understoodH3045 that the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 was comeH935 into the campH4264.
And the PhilistinesH6430 were afraidH3372, for they saidH559, GodH430 is comeH935 into the campH4264. And they saidH559, WoeH188 unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretoforeH865+H8032. {heretofore: Heb. yesterday, or, the third day}
WoeH188 unto us! who shall deliverH5337 us out of the handH3027 of these mightyH117 GodsH430? these are the GodsH430 that smoteH5221 the EgyptiansH4714 with all the plaguesH4347 in the wildernessH4057.
Be strongH2388, and quitH1961 yourselves like menH582, O ye PhilistinesH6430, that ye be not servantsH5647 unto the HebrewsH5680, as they have beenH5647 to you: quitH1961 yourselves like menH582, and fightH3898. {quit…: Heb. be men}
And the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898, and IsraelH3478 was smittenH5062, and they fledH5127 every manH376 into his tentH168: and there was a veryH3966 greatH1419 slaughterH4347; for there fellH5307 of IsraelH3478 thirtyH7970 thousandH505 footmenH7273.
And the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947; and the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of EliH5941, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, were slainH4191. {were slain: Heb. died}
And there ranH7323 a manH376 of BenjaminH1144 out of the armyH4634, and cameH935 to ShilohH7887 the same dayH3117 with his clothesH4055 rentH7167, and with earthH127 upon his headH7218.
And when he cameH935, lo, EliH5941 satH3427 upon a seatH3678 by the waysideH1870+H3027+H3197 watchingH6822: for his heartH3820 trembledH2730 for the arkH727 of GodH430. And when the manH376 cameH935 into the cityH5892, and toldH5046 it, all the cityH5892 cried outH2199.
And when EliH5941 heardH8085 the noiseH6963 of the cryingH6818, he saidH559, What meaneth the noiseH6963 of this tumultH1995? And the manH376 cameH935 in hastilyH4116, and toldH5046 EliH5941.
Now EliH5941 was ninetyH8673 and eightH8083 yearsH8141 oldH1121; and his eyesH5869 were dimH6965, that he couldH3201 not seeH7200. {were dim: Heb. stood}
And the manH376 saidH559 unto EliH5941, I am he that cameH935 out of the armyH4634, and I fledH5127 to dayH3117 out of the armyH4634. And he saidH559, What is there doneH1697, my sonH1121? {is…: Heb. is the thing}
And the messengerH1319 answeredH6030 and saidH559, IsraelH3478 is fledH5127 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and there hath been also a greatH1419 slaughterH4046 among the peopleH5971, and thy twoH8147 sonsH1121 also, HophniH2652 and PhinehasH6372, are deadH4191, and the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.
And it came to pass, when he made mentionH2142 of the arkH727 of GodH430, that he fellH5307 from off the seatH3678 backwardH322 byH1157 the sideH3027 of the gateH8179, and his neckH4665 brakeH7665, and he diedH4191: for he was an oldH2204 manH376, and heavyH3513. And he had judgedH8199 IsraelH3478 fortyH705 yearsH8141.
And his daughter in lawH3618, Phinehas'H6372 wifeH802, was with childH2030, near to be deliveredH3205: and when she heardH8085 the tidingsH8052 thatH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947, and that her father in lawH2524 and her husbandH376 were deadH4191, she bowedH3766 herself and travailedH3205; for her painsH6735 cameH2015 upon her. {be delivered: or, cry out} {came: Heb. were turned}
And about the timeH6256 of her deathH4191 the women that stoodH5324 by her saidH1696 unto her, FearH3372 not; for thou hast bornH3205 a sonH1121. But she answeredH6030 not, neither did she regardH7896+H3820 it. {neither…: Heb. set not her heart}
And she namedH7121 the childH5288 IchabodH350, sayingH559, The gloryH3519 is departedH1540 from IsraelH3478: becauseH413 the arkH727 of GodH430 was takenH3947, and because of her father in lawH2524 and her husbandH376. {Ichabod: that is, Where is the glory? or, There is no glory}
And she saidH559, The gloryH3519 is departedH1540 from IsraelH3478: for the arkH727 of GodH430 is takenH3947.
Thou shalt bringH935 them in, and plantH5193 them in the mountainH2022 of thine inheritanceH5159, in the placeH4349, O LORDH3068, which thou hast madeH6466 for thee to dwell inH3427, in the SanctuaryH4720, O LordH136, which thy handsH3027 have establishedH3559.
For the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977 ZionH6726; he hath desiredH183 it for his habitationH4186.
This is my restH4496 for everH5703: here will I dwellH3427; for I have desiredH183 it.
For DavidH1732 saidH559, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 hath given restH5117 unto his peopleH5971, that they may dwellH7931 in JerusalemH3389 for everH5769: {that…: or, and he dwelleth in Jerusalem, etc}
And GadH1410 cameH935 that dayH3117 to DavidH1732, and saidH559 unto him, Go upH5927, rearH6965 an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068 in the threshingfloorH1637 of AraunahH728 the JebusiteH2983. {Araunah: Heb. Araniah}
And DavidH1732 builtH1129 there an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and peace offeringsH8002. So the LORDH3068 was intreatedH6279 for the landH776, and the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113 from IsraelH3478.
Now when SolomonH8010 had made an endH3615 of prayingH6419, the fireH784 came downH3381 from heavenH8064, and consumedH398 the burnt offeringH5930 and the sacrificesH2077; and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 filledH4390 the houseH1004.
And there cameH3318 a fireH784 out from beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and consumedH398 upon the altarH4196 the burnt offeringH5930 and the fatH2459: which when all the peopleH5971 sawH7200, they shoutedH7442, and fellH5307 on their facesH6440.
And they departedH5265 from the mountH2022 of the LORDH3068 threeH7969 days'H3117 journeyH1870: and the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 wentH5265 beforeH6440 them in the threeH7969 days'H3117 journeyH1870, to search outH8446 a resting placeH4496 for them.
Whereas I have not dweltH3427 in any houseH1004 since the timeH3117 that I brought upH5927 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, even to this dayH3117, but have walkedH1980 in a tentH168 and in a tabernacleH4908.
For I have not dwelt inH3427 an houseH1004 since the dayH3117 that I brought upH5927 IsraelH3478 unto this dayH3117; but have gone from tentH168 to tentH168, and from one tabernacleH4908 to another. {have gone: Heb. have been}
And it came to pass, when the arkH727 set forwardH5265, that MosesH4872 saidH559, Rise upH6965, LORDH3068, and let thine enemiesH341 be scatteredH6327; and let them that hateH8130 thee fleeH5127 beforeH6440 thee.
And the houseH1004, that is, the templeH1964 beforeH3942 it, was fortyH705 cubitsH520 long.
So HannahH2584 rose upH6965 afterH310 they had eatenH398 in ShilohH7887, and afterH310 they had drunkH8354. Now EliH5941 the priestH3548 satH3427 upon a seatH3678 by a postH4201 of the templeH1964 of the LORDH3068.
Lift upH5375 your headsH7218, O ye gatesH8179; and be ye lift upH5375, ye everlastingH5769 doorsH6607; and the KingH4428 of gloryH3519 shall come inH935.
Lift upH5375 your headsH7218, O ye gatesH8179; even lift them upH5375, ye everlastingH5769 doorsH6607; and the KingH4428 of gloryH3519 shall come inH935.
Who is this KingH4428 of gloryH3519? The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, he is the KingH4428 of gloryH3519. SelahH5542.
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH935 into the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and came outH3318, and blessedH1288 the peopleH5971: and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto all the peopleH5971.
And there cameH3318 a fireH784 out from beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and consumedH398 upon the altarH4196 the burnt offeringH5930 and the fatH2459: which when all the peopleH5971 sawH7200, they shoutedH7442, and fellH5307 on their facesH6440.
And he broughtH7126 the people'sH5971 offeringH7133, and tookH3947 the goatH8163, which was the sin offeringH2403 for the peopleH5971, and slewH7819 it, and offered it for sinH2398, as the firstH7223.
And he broughtH7126 the burnt offeringH5930, and offeredH6213 it according to the mannerH4941. {manner: or, ordinance}
And he broughtH7126 the meat offeringH4503, and tookH4390 an handfulH3709 thereof, and burntH6999 it upon the altarH4196, besideH905 the burnt sacrificeH5930 of the morningH1242. {took…: Heb. filled his hand out of it}
He slewH7819 also the bullockH7794 and the ramH352 for a sacrificeH2077 of peace offeringsH8002, which was for the peopleH5971: and Aaron'sH175 sonsH1121 presentedH4672 unto him the bloodH1818, which he sprinkledH2236 upon the altarH4196 round aboutH5439,
And the fatH2459 of the bullockH7794 and of the ramH352, the rumpH451, and that which coverethH4374 the inwards, and the kidneysH3629, and the caulH3508 above the liverH3516:
And they putH7760 the fatH2459 upon the breastsH2373, and he burntH6999 the fatH2459 upon the altarH4196:
And the breastsH2373 and the rightH3225 shoulderH7785 AaronH175 wavedH5130 for a wave offeringH8573 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; as MosesH4872 commandedH6680.
And AaronH175 lifted upH5375 his handH3027 toward the peopleH5971, and blessedH1288 them, and came downH3381 from offeringH6213 of the sin offeringH2403, and the burnt offeringH5930, and peace offeringsH8002.
And MosesH4872 and AaronH175 wentH935 into the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and came outH3318, and blessedH1288 the peopleH5971: and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 unto all the peopleH5971.
NowG1161 allG3956 these thingsG5023 happenedG4819 unto themG1565 for ensamplesG5179: andG1161 they are writtenG1125 forG4314 ourG2257 admonitionG3559, uponG1519 whomG3739 the endsG5056 of the worldG165 are comeG2658. {ensamples: or, types}
NowG1161 allG3956 these thingsG5023 happenedG4819 unto themG1565 for ensamplesG5179: andG1161 they are writtenG1125 forG4314 ourG2257 admonitionG3559, uponG1519 whomG3739 the endsG5056 of the worldG165 are comeG2658. {ensamples: or, types}
ForG1063 whatsoever thingsG3745 were written aforetimeG4270 were writtenG4270 forG1519 ourG2251 learningG1319, thatG2443 weG2192 throughG1223 patienceG5281 andG2532 comfortG3874 of the scripturesG1124 might haveG2192 hopeG1680.
And they journeyedH5265 from mountH2022 HorH2023 by the wayH1870 of the RedH5488 seaH3220, to compassH5437 the landH776 of EdomH123: and the soulH5315 of the peopleH5971 was much discouragedH7114 because of the wayH1870. {discouraged: or, grieved: Heb. shortened}
And the peopleH5971 spakeH1696 against GodH430, and against MosesH4872, Wherefore have ye brought us upH5927 out of EgyptH4714 to dieH4191 in the wildernessH4057? for there is no breadH3899, neither is there any waterH4325; and our soulH5315 loathethH6973 this lightH7052 breadH3899.
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 fieryH8314 serpentsH5175 among the peopleH5971, and they bitH5391 the peopleH5971; and muchH7227 peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478 diedH4191.
Therefore the peopleH5971 cameH935 to MosesH4872, and saidH559, We have sinnedH2398, for we have spokenH1696 against the LORDH3068, and against thee; prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068, that he take awayH5493 the serpentsH5175 from us. And MosesH4872 prayedH6419 for the peopleH5971.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, MakeH6213 thee a fiery serpentH8314, and setH7760 it upon a poleH5251: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bittenH5391, when he lookethH7200 upon it, shall liveH2425.
And MosesH4872 madeH6213 a serpentH5175 of brassH5178, and putH7760 it upon a poleH5251, and it came to pass, that if a serpentH5175 had bittenH5391 any manH376, when he beheldH5027 the serpentH5175 of brassH5178, he livedH2425.
AndG2532 asG2531 MosesG3475 lifted upG5312 the serpentG3789 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, even soG3779 mustG1163 the SonG5207 of manG444 be lifted upG5312:
ThatG3363 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100 inG1519 himG846 shouldG622 notG3363 perishG622, butG235 haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 GodG2316 soG3779 lovedG25 the worldG2889, thatG5620 he gaveG1325 hisG846 only begottenG3439 SonG5207, thatG2443 whosoeverG3956 believethG4100 inG1519 himG846 shouldG622 notG3361 perishG622, butG235 haveG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
Then SolomonH8010 assembledH6950 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and all the headsH7218 of the tribesH4294, the chiefH5387 of the fathersH1 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010 in JerusalemH3389, that they might bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, which is ZionH6726. {chief: Heb. princes}
And all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 themselves unto kingH4428 SolomonH8010 at the feastH2282 in the monthH3391 EthanimH388, which is the seventhH7637 monthH2320.
And all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935, and the priestsH3548 took upH5375 the arkH727.
And they brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, even those did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bring upH5927.
And kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, that were assembledH3259 unto him, were with him beforeH6440 the arkH727, sacrificingH2076 sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, that could not be toldH5608 nor numberedH4487 for multitudeH7230.
And the priestsH3548 brought inH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 unto his placeH4725, into the oracleH1687 of the houseH1004, to the mostH6944 holyH6944 place, even under the wingsH3671 of the cherubimsH3742.
For the cherubimsH3742 spread forthH6566 their two wingsH3671 over the placeH4725 of the arkH727, and the cherubimsH3742 coveredH5526 the arkH727 and the stavesH905 thereof aboveH4605.
And they drew outH748 the stavesH905, that the endsH7218 of the stavesH905 were seen outH7200 in the holyH6944 place beforeH6440 the oracleH1687, and they were not seenH7200 withoutH2351: and there they are unto this dayH3117. {ends: Heb. heads} {holy…: or, ark}
There was nothing in the arkH727 saveH7535 the twoH8147 tablesH3871 of stoneH68, which MosesH4872 putH3240 there at HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {when the: or, where the}
And it came to pass, when the priestsH3548 were come outH3318 of the holyH6944 place, that the cloudH6051 filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068,
So that the priestsH3548 couldH3201 not standH5975 to ministerH8334 becauseH6440 of the cloudH6051: for the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 had filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Then spakeH559 SolomonH8010, The LORDH3068 saidH559 that he would dwellH7931 in the thick darknessH6205.
I have surelyH1129 builtH1129 thee an houseH1004 to dwell inH2073, a settled placeH4349 for thee to abide inH3427 for everH5769.
And the kingH4428 turnedH5437 his faceH6440 aboutH5437, and blessedH1288 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478: (and all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 stoodH5975;)
And he saidH559, BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, which spakeH1696 with his mouthH6310 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and hath with his handH3027 fulfilledH4390 it, sayingH559,
Since the dayH3117 that I brought forthH3318 my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, I choseH977 no cityH5892 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to buildH1129 an houseH1004, that my nameH8034 might be therein; but I choseH977 DavidH1732 to be over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.
And it was in the heartH3824 of DavidH1732 my fatherH1 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, WhereasH3282+H834 it was in thine heartH3824 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto my nameH8034, thou didst wellH2895 that it was in thine heartH3824.
NeverthelessH7535 thou shalt not buildH1129 the houseH1004; but thy sonH1121 that shall come forth outH3318 of thy loinsH2504, he shall buildH1129 the houseH1004 unto my nameH8034.
And the LORDH3068 hath performedH6965 his wordH1697 that he spakeH1696, and I am risen upH6965 in the room of DavidH1732 my fatherH1, and sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478, as the LORDH3068 promisedH1696, and have builtH1129 an houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And I have setH7760 there a placeH4725 for the arkH727, wherein is the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, which he madeH3772 with our fathersH1, when he brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And SolomonH8010 stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 in the presence ofH5048 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709 toward heavenH8064:
And he saidH559, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, there is no GodH430 like thee, in heavenH8064 aboveH4605, or on earthH776 beneath, who keepestH8104 covenantH1285 and mercyH2617 with thy servantsH5650 that walkH1980 beforeH6440 thee with all their heartH3820:
Who hast keptH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that thou promisedstH1696 him: thou spakestH1696 also with thy mouthH6310, and hast fulfilledH4390 it with thine handH3027, as it is this dayH3117.
Therefore now, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, keepH8104 with thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 that thou promisedstH1696 him, sayingH559, There shall not failH3772 thee a manH376 in my sightH6440 to sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478; soH7535 that thy childrenH1121 take heedH8104 to their wayH1870, that they walkH3212 beforeH6440 me as thou hast walkedH1980 beforeH6440 me. {fail…: Heb. be cut off unto thee a man from my sight} {so that: Heb. only if}
And now, O GodH430 of IsraelH3478, let thy wordH1697, I pray thee, be verifiedH539, which thou spakestH1696 unto thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1.
But will GodH430 indeedH552 dwellH3427 on the earthH776? behold, the heavenH8064 and heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannot containH3557 thee; how much lessH637 this houseH1004 that I have buildedH1129?
Yet have thou respectH6437 unto the prayerH8605 of thy servantH5650, and to his supplicationH8467, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, to hearkenH8085 unto the cryH7440 and to the prayerH8605, which thy servantH5650 prayethH6419 beforeH6440 thee to dayH3117:
That thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 toward this houseH1004 nightH3915 and dayH3117, even toward the placeH4725 of which thou hast saidH559, My nameH8034 shall be there: that thou mayest hearkenH8085 unto the prayerH8605 which thy servantH5650 shall makeH6419 toward this placeH4725. {toward this place: or, in this place}
And hearkenH8085 thou to the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, when they shall prayH6419 toward this placeH4725: and hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4725: and when thou hearestH8085, forgiveH5545. {toward this place: or, in this place}
If any manH376 trespassH2398 against his neighbourH7453, and an oathH423 be laidH5375 upon him to cause him to swearH422, and the oathH423 comeH935 beforeH6440 thine altarH4196 in this houseH1004: {and an oath…: Heb. and he require an oath of him}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and doH6213, and judgeH8199 thy servantsH5650, condemningH7561 the wickedH7563, to bringH5414 his wayH1870 upon his headH7218; and justifyingH6663 the righteousH6662, to giveH5414 him according to his righteousnessH6666.
When thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 be smitten downH5062 beforeH6440 the enemyH341, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee, and shall turn againH7725 to thee, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and prayH6419, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in this houseH1004: {in: or, toward}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and bring them againH7725 unto the landH127 which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1.
When heavenH8064 is shut upH6113, and there is no rainH4306, because they have sinnedH2398 against thee; if they prayH6419 toward this placeH4725, and confessH3034 thy nameH8034, and turnH7725 from their sinH2403, when thou afflictestH6031 them:
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064, and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of thy servantsH5650, and of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, that thou teachH3384 them the goodH2896 wayH1870 wherein they should walkH3212, and giveH5414 rainH4306 upon thy landH776, which thou hast givenH5414 to thy peopleH5971 for an inheritanceH5159.
If there be in the landH776 famineH7458, if there be pestilenceH1698, blastingH7711, mildewH3420, locustH697, or if there be caterpillerH2625; if their enemyH341 besiegeH6887 them in the landH776 of their citiesH8179; whatsoever plagueH5061, whatsoever sicknessH4245 there be; {cities: or, jurisdiction}
What prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 soever be made by any manH120, or by all thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, which shall knowH3045 every manH376 the plagueH5061 of his own heartH3824, and spread forthH6566 his handsH3709 toward this houseH1004:
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and forgiveH5545, and doH6213, and giveH5414 to every manH376 according to his waysH1870, whose heartH3824 thou knowestH3045; (for thou, even thou only, knowestH3045 the heartsH3824 of all the childrenH1121 of menH120;)
That they may fearH3372 thee all the daysH3117 that they liveH2416 inH6440 the landH127 which thou gavestH5414 unto our fathersH1.
Moreover concerning a strangerH5237, that is not of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, but cometh outH935 of a farH7350 countryH776 forH4616 thy name'sH8034 sake;
(For they shall hearH8085 of thy greatH1419 nameH8034, and of thy strongH2389 handH3027, and of thy stretched outH5186 armH2220;) when he shall comeH935 and prayH6419 toward this houseH1004;
HearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and doH6213 according to all that the strangerH5237 callethH7121 to thee for: that all peopleH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 thy nameH8034, to fearH3372 thee, as do thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; and that they may knowH3045 that this houseH1004, which I have buildedH1129, is calledH7121 by thy nameH8034. {this…: Heb. thy name is called upon this house}
If thy peopleH5971 go outH3318 to battleH4421 against their enemyH341, whithersoeverH1870 thou shalt sendH7971 them, and shall prayH6419 unto the LORDH3068 towardH1870 the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and toward the houseH1004 that I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034: {toward the city: Heb. the way of the city}
Then hearH8085 thou in heavenH8064 their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941. {cause: or, right}
If they sinH2398 against thee, (for there is no manH120 that sinnethH2398 not,) and thou be angryH599 with them, and deliverH5414 them to the enemyH341, so that they carry them awayH7617 captivesH7617 untoH6440 the landH776 of the enemyH341, farH7350 or nearH7138;
Yet if they shall bethinkH7725 themselves in the landH776 whither they were carried captivesH7617, and repentH7725+H3820, and make supplicationH2603 unto thee in the landH776 of them that carried them captivesH7617, sayingH559, We have sinnedH2398, and have done perverselyH5753, we have committed wickednessH7561; {bethink…: Heb. bring back to their heart}
And so returnH7725 unto thee with all their heartH3824, and with all their soulH5315, in the landH776 of their enemiesH341, which led them away captiveH7617, and prayH6419 unto thee towardH1870 their landH776, which thou gavestH5414 unto their fathersH1, the cityH5892 which thou hast chosenH977, and the houseH1004 which I have builtH1129 for thy nameH8034:
Then hearH8085 thou their prayerH8605 and their supplicationH8467 in heavenH8064 thy dwellingH3427 placeH4349, and maintainH6213 their causeH4941, {cause: or, right}
And forgiveH5545 thy peopleH5971 that have sinnedH2398 against thee, and all their transgressionsH6588 wherein they have transgressedH6586 against thee, and giveH5414 them compassionH7356 beforeH6440 them who carried them captiveH7617, that they may have compassionH7355 on them:
For they be thy peopleH5971, and thine inheritanceH5159, which thou broughtest forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714, from the midstH8432 of the furnaceH3564 of ironH1270:
That thine eyesH5869 may be openH6605 unto the supplicationH8467 of thy servantH5650, and unto the supplicationH8467 of thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, to hearkenH8085 unto them in all that they callH7121 for unto thee.
For thou didst separateH914 them from among all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776, to be thine inheritanceH5159, as thou spakestH1696 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 thy servantH5650, when thou broughtestH3318 our fathersH1 out of EgyptH4714, O LordH136 GODH3069.
And it was so, that when SolomonH8010 had made an endH3615 of prayingH6419 all this prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 unto the LORDH3068, he aroseH6965 from beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, from kneelingH3766 on his kneesH1290 with his handsH3709 spread upH6566 to heavenH8064.
And he stoodH5975, and blessedH1288 all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, sayingH559,
BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068, that hath givenH5414 restH4496 unto his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, according to all that he promisedH1696: there hath not failedH5307 oneH259 wordH1697 of all his goodH2896 promiseH1697, which he promisedH1696 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872 his servantH5650. {failed: Heb. fallen}
The LORDH3068 our GodH430 be with us, as he was with our fathersH1: let him not leaveH5800 us, nor forsakeH5203 us:
That he may inclineH5186 our heartsH3824 unto him, to walkH3212 in all his waysH1870, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, and his statutesH2706, and his judgmentsH4941, which he commandedH6680 our fathersH1.
And let these my wordsH1697, wherewith I have made supplicationH2603 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, be nighH7138 unto the LORDH3068 our GodH430 dayH3119 and nightH3915, that he maintainH6213 the causeH4941 of his servantH5650, and the causeH4941 of his peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 at all timesH3117+H3117, as the matterH1697 shall require: {at all…: Heb. the thing of a day in his day}
That all the peopleH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 that the LORDH3068 is GodH430, and that there is none else.
Let your heartH3824 therefore be perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 our GodH430, to walkH3212 in his statutesH2706, and to keepH8104 his commandmentsH4687, as at this dayH3117.
And the kingH4428, and all IsraelH3478 with him, offeredH2076 sacrificeH2077 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of peace offeringsH8002, which he offeredH2076 unto the LORDH3068, twoH8147 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 oxenH1241, and an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 sheepH6629. So the kingH4428 and all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 dedicatedH2596 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
The same dayH3117 did the kingH4428 hallowH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002: because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 that was beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 was too littleH6996 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002.
And at that timeH6256 SolomonH8010 heldH6213 a feastH2282, and all IsraelH3478 with him, a greatH1419 congregationH6951, from the enteringH935 in of HamathH2574 unto the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, sevenH7651 daysH3117 and sevenH7651 daysH3117, even fourteenH702+H6240 daysH3117.
On the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971: and they blessedH1288 the kingH4428, and wentH3212 unto their tentsH168 joyfulH8056 and gladH2896 of heartH3820 for all the goodnessH2896 that the LORDH3068 had doneH6213 for DavidH1732 his servantH5650, and for IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971. {blessed: or, thanked}
There remainethG620 thereforeG686 a restG4520 to the peopleG2992 of GodG2316. {rest: or, keeping of a sabbath}
And there shall come forthH3318 a rodH2415 out of the stemH1503 of JesseH3448, and a BranchH5342 shall growH6509 out of his rootsH8328:
And the spiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 shall restH5117 upon him, the spiritH7307 of wisdomH2451 and understandingH998, the spiritH7307 of counselH6098 and mightH1369, the spiritH7307 of knowledgeH1847 and of the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068;
And shall make him of quick understandingH7306 in the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068: and he shall not judgeH8199 after the sightH4758 of his eyesH5869, neither reproveH3198 after the hearingH4926 of his earsH241: {quick…: Heb. scent or, smell}
But with righteousnessH6664 shall he judgeH8199 the poorH1800, and reproveH3198 with equityH4334 for the meekH6035 of the earthH776: and he shall smiteH5221 the earthH776 with the rodH7626 of his mouthH6310, and with the breathH7307 of his lipsH8193 shall he slayH4191 the wickedH7563. {reprove: or, argue}
And righteousnessH6664 shall be the girdleH232 of his loinsH4975, and faithfulnessH530 the girdleH232 of his reinsH2504.
The wolfH2061 also shall dwellH1481 with the lambH3532, and the leopardH5246 shall lie downH7257 with the kidH1423; and the calfH5695 and the young lionH3715 and the fatlingH4806 togetherH3162; and a littleH6996 childH5288 shall leadH5090 them.
And the cowH6510 and the bearH1677 shall feedH7462; their young onesH3206 shall lie downH7257 togetherH3162: and the lionH738 shall eatH398 strawH8401 like the oxH1241.
And the sucking childH3243 shall playH8173 on the holeH2352 of the aspH6620, and the weaned childH1580 shall putH1911 his handH3027 on the cockatrice'H6848 denH3975. {cockatrice: or, adders}
They shall not hurtH7489 nor destroyH7843 in all my holyH6944 mountainH2022: for the earthH776 shall be fullH4390 of the knowledgeH1844 of the LORDH3068, as the watersH4325 coverH3680 the seaH3220.
And in that dayH3117 there shall be a rootH8328 of JesseH3448, which shall standH5975 for an ensignH5251 of the peopleH5971; to it shall the GentilesH1471 seekH1875: and his restH4496 shall be gloriousH3519. {glorious: Heb. glory}
And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, that the LordH136 shall setH3254 his handH3027 againH3254 the second timeH8145 to recoverH7069 the remnantH7605 of his peopleH5971, which shall be leftH7604, from AssyriaH804, and from EgyptH4714, and from PathrosH6624, and from CushH3568, and from ElamH5867, and from ShinarH8152, and from HamathH2574, and from the islandsH339 of the seaH3220.
And he shall set upH5375 an ensignH5251 for the nationsH1471, and shall assembleH622 the outcastsH1760 of IsraelH3478, and gather togetherH6908 the dispersedH5310 of JudahH3063 from the fourH702 cornersH3671 of the earthH776. {corners: Heb. wings}
The envyH7068 also of EphraimH669 shall departH5493, and the adversariesH6887 of JudahH3063 shall be cut offH3772: EphraimH669 shall not envyH7065 JudahH3063, and JudahH3063 shall not vexH6887 EphraimH669.
But they shall flyH5774 upon the shouldersH3802 of the PhilistinesH6430 toward the westH3220; they shall spoilH962 themH1121 of the eastH6924 togetherH3162: they shall layH4916 their handH3027 upon EdomH123 and MoabH4124; and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 shall obeyH4928 them. {them of: Heb. the children of} {they shall lay…: Heb. Edom and Moab shall be the laying on of their hand} {shall obey…: Heb. their obedience}
And the LORDH3068 shall utterly destroyH2763 the tongueH3956 of the EgyptianH4714 seaH3220; and with his mightyH5868 windH7307 shall he shakeH5130 his handH3027 over the riverH5104, and shall smiteH5221 it in the sevenH7651 streamsH5158, and make men go overH1869 dryshodH5275. {dryshod: Heb. in shoes}
And there shall be an highwayH4546 for the remnantH7605 of his peopleH5971, whichH834 shall be leftH7604, from AssyriaH804; like as it was to IsraelH3478 in the dayH3117 that he came upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
ForG1063 he will finishG4931 the workG3056, andG2532 cut it shortG4932 inG1722 righteousnessG1343: becauseG3754 a shortG4932 workG3056 willG4160 the LordG2962 makeG4160 uponG1909 the earthG1093. {the work: or, the account}
AllG3956 scriptureG1124 is given by inspiration of GodG2315, andG2532 is profitableG5624 forG4314 doctrineG1319, forG4314 reproofG1650, forG4314 correctionG1882, forG4314 instructionG3809 inG1722 righteousnessG1343:
ThatG2443 the manG444 of GodG2316 may beG5600 perfectG739, throughly furnishedG1822 untoG4314 allG3956 goodG18 worksG2041. {throughly…: or, perfected}
SpeakH1696 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, The fifteenthH2568+H6240 dayH3117 of this seventhH7637 monthH2320 shall be the feastH2282 of tabernaclesH5521 for sevenH7651 daysH3117 unto the LORDH3068.
Now when SolomonH8010 had made an endH3615 of prayingH6419, the fireH784 came downH3381 from heavenH8064, and consumedH398 the burnt offeringH5930 and the sacrificesH2077; and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 filledH4390 the houseH1004.
And the priestsH3548 couldH3201 not enterH935 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, because the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 had filledH4390 the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004.
And when all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 how the fireH784 came downH3381, and the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 upon the houseH1004, they bowedH3766 themselves with their facesH639 to the groundH776 upon the pavementH7531, and worshippedH7812, and praisedH3034 the LORDH3068, saying, For he is goodH2896; for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769.
Then the kingH4428 and all the peopleH5971 offeredH2076 sacrificesH2077 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And kingH4428 SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of twentyH6242 and twoH8147 thousandH505 oxenH1241, and an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 sheepH6629: so the kingH4428 and all the peopleH5971 dedicatedH2596 the houseH1004 of GodH430.
And the priestsH3548 waitedH5975 on their officesH4931: the LevitesH3881 also with instrumentsH3627 of musickH7892 of the LORDH3068, which DavidH1732 the kingH4428 had madeH6213 to praiseH3034 the LORDH3068, because his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769, when DavidH1732 praisedH1984 by their ministryH3027; and the priestsH3548 sounded trumpetsH2690+H2690 before them, and all IsraelH3478 stoodH5975. {by their…: Heb. by their hand}
Moreover SolomonH8010 hallowedH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002, because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 was not ableH3201 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and the meat offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459.
Also at the same timeH6256 SolomonH8010 keptH6213 the feastH2282 sevenH7651 daysH3117, and all IsraelH3478 with him, a veryH3966 greatH1419 congregationH6951, from the entering inH935 of HamathH2574 unto the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714.
And in the eighthH8066 dayH3117 they madeH6213 a solemn assemblyH6116: for they keptH6213 the dedicationH2598 of the altarH4196 sevenH7651 daysH3117, and the feastH2282 sevenH7651 daysH3117. {a solemn…: Heb. a restraint}
And on the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the seventhH7637 monthH2320 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971 into their tentsH168, gladH8056 and merryH2896 in heartH3820 for the goodnessH2896 that the LORDH3068 had shewedH6213 unto DavidH1732, and to SolomonH8010, and to IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971.
Thus SolomonH8010 finishedH3615 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the king'sH4428 houseH1004: and all that cameH935 into Solomon'sH8010 heartH3820 to makeH6213 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and in his own houseH1004, he prosperously effectedH6743.
And the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 to SolomonH8010 by nightH3915, and saidH559 unto him, I have heardH8085 thy prayerH8605, and have chosenH977 this placeH4725 to myself for an houseH1004 of sacrificeH2077.
IfH2005 I shut upH6113 heavenH8064 that there be no rainH4306, or if I commandH6680 the locustsH2284 to devourH398 the landH776, or if I sendH7971 pestilenceH1698 among my peopleH5971;
If my peopleH5971, which are calledH7121 by my nameH8034, shall humbleH3665 themselves, and prayH6419, and seekH1245 my faceH6440, and turnH7725 from their wickedH7451 waysH1870; then will I hearH8085 from heavenH8064, and will forgiveH5545 their sinH2403, and will healH7495 their landH776. {which…: Heb. upon whom my name is called}
Now mine eyesH5869 shall be openH6605, and mine earsH241 attentH7183 unto the prayerH8605 that is made in this placeH4725. {unto…: Heb. to the prayer of this place}
For now have I chosenH977 and sanctifiedH6942 this houseH1004, that my nameH8034 may be there forH5704 everH5769: and mine eyesH5869 and mine heartH3820 shall be there perpetuallyH3117.
And as for thee, if thou wilt walkH3212 beforeH6440 me, as DavidH1732 thy fatherH1 walkedH1980, and doH6213 according to all that I have commandedH6680 thee, and shalt observeH8104 my statutesH2706 and my judgmentsH4941;
Then will I stablishH6965 the throneH3678 of thy kingdomH4438, according as I have covenantedH3772 with DavidH1732 thy fatherH1, sayingH559, There shall not failH3772 thee a manH376 to be rulerH4910 in IsraelH3478. {There…: Heb. There shall not be cut off to thee}
But if ye turn awayH7725, and forsakeH5800 my statutesH2708 and my commandmentsH4687, which I have setH5414 beforeH6440 you, and shall goH1980 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worshipH7812 them;
Then will I pluck them up by the rootsH5428 out of my landH127 which I have givenH5414 them; and this houseH1004, which I have sanctifiedH6942 for my nameH8034, will I cast outH7993 of my sightH6440, and will makeH5414 it to be a proverbH4912 and a bywordH8148 among all nationsH5971.
And this houseH1004, which is highH5945, shall be an astonishmentH8074 to every one that passethH5674 by it; so that he shall sayH559, Why hath the LORDH3068 doneH6213 thus unto this landH776, and unto this houseH1004?
And it shall be answeredH559, Because they forsookH5800 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, which brought them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and laid holdH2388 on otherH312 godsH430, and worshippedH7812 them, and servedH5647 them: therefore hath he broughtH935 all this evilH7451 upon them.
