Dual Panel1Thus all the work <04399> that Solomon <08010> made <06213> (8804) for the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> was finished <07999> (8799)_: and Solomon <08010> brought <0935> (8686) in [all] the things <06944> (0) that David <01732> his father <01> had dedicated <06944>_; and the silver <03701>_, and the gold <02091>_, and all the instruments <03627>_, put <05414> (8804) he among the treasures <0214> of the house <01004> of God <0430>_.
2Then Solomon <08010> assembled <06950> (8686) the elders <02205> of Israel <03478>_, and all the heads <07218> of the tribes <04294>_, the chief <05387> of the fathers <01> of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>_, unto Jerusalem <03389>_, to bring up <05927> (8687) the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> out of the city <05892> of David <01732>_, which [is] Zion <06726>_.
3Wherefore all the men <0376> of Israel <03478> assembled <06950> (8735) themselves unto the king <04428> in the feast <02282> which [was] in the seventh <07637> month <02320>_.
4And all the elders <02205> of Israel <03478> came <0935> (8799)_; and the Levites <03881> took up <05375> (8799) the ark <0727>_.
5And they brought up <05927> (8686) the ark <0727>_, and the tabernacle <0168> of the congregation <04150>_, and all the holy <06944> vessels <03627> that [were] in the tabernacle <0168>_, these did the priests <03548> [and] the Levites <03881> bring up <05927> (8689)_.
6Also king <04428> Solomon <08010>_, and all the congregation <05712> of Israel <03478> that were assembled <03259> (8737) unto him before <06440> the ark <0727>_, sacrificed <02076> (8764) sheep <06629> and oxen <01241>_, which could not be told <05608> (8735) nor numbered <04487> (8735) for multitude <07230>_.
7And the priests <03548> brought in <0935> (8686) the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> unto his place <04725>_, to the oracle <01687> of the house <01004>_, into the most <06944> holy <06944> [place, even] under the wings <03671> of the cherubims <03742>_:
8For the cherubims <03742> spread forth <06566> (8802) [their] wings <03671> over the place <04725> of the ark <0727>_, and the cherubims <03742> covered <03680> (8762) the ark <0727> and the staves <0905> thereof above <04605>_.
9And they drew out <0748> (8686) the staves <0905> [of the ark], that the ends <07218> of the staves <0905> were seen <07200> (8735) from the ark <0727> before <06440> the oracle <01687>_; but they were not seen <07200> (8735) without <02351>_. And there it is unto this day <03117>_. {there...: or, they are there}
10[There was] nothing in the ark <0727> save the two <08147> tables <03871> which Moses <04872> put <05414> (8804) [therein] at Horeb <02722>_, when the LORD <03068> made <03772> (8804) [a covenant] with the children <01121> of Israel <03478>_, when they came out <03318> (8800) of Egypt <04714>_. {when the LORD: or, where, etc}
11And it came to pass, when the priests <03548> were come out <03318> (8800) of the holy <06944> [place]: (for all the priests <03548> [that were] present <04672> (8737) were sanctified <06942> (8694)_, [and] did not [then] wait <08104> (8800) by course <04256>_: {present: Heb. found}
12Also the Levites <03881> [which were] the singers <07891> (8789)_, all of them of Asaph <0623>_, of Heman <01968>_, of Jeduthun <03038>_, with their sons <01121> and their brethren <0251>_, [being] arrayed <03847> (8794) in white linen <0948>_, having cymbals <04700> and psalteries <05035> and harps <03658>_, stood <05975> (8802) at the east end <04217> of the altar <04196>_, and with them an hundred <03967> and twenty <06242> priests <03548> sounding <02690> (8688) with trumpets <02689>:)
13It came even to pass, as the trumpeters <02690> (8764) (8675) <02690> (8764) and singers <07891> (8789) [were] as one <0259>_, to make one <0259> sound <06963> to be heard <08085> (8687) in praising <01984> (8763) and thanking <03034> (8687) the LORD <03068>_; and when they lifted up <07311> (8687) [their] voice <06963> with the trumpets <02689> and cymbals <04700> and instruments <03627> of musick <07892>_, and praised <01984> (8763) the LORD <03068>_, [saying], For [he is] good <02896>_; for his mercy <02617> [endureth] for ever <05769>_: that [then] the house <01004> was filled <04390> (8804) with a cloud <06051>_, [even] the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>_;
14So that the priests <03548> could <03201> (8804) not stand <05975> (8800) to minister <08334> (8763) by reason <06440> of the cloud <06051>_: for the glory <03519> of the LORD <03068> had filled <04390> (8804) the house <01004> of God <0430>_.
