2CH-6:19 Have respect therefore to the prayer of thy servant,

and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry

and the prayer which thy servant prayeth before thee:<before>

2CH-6:20 That thine eyes may be open upon this house day and

night, upon the place whereof thou hast said that thou wouldest

put thy name there; to hearken unto the prayer which thy servant

prayeth toward this place. <day> <eyes> <hast> <hearken> <house>

2CH-6:21 Hearken therefore unto the supplications of thy servant,

and of thy people Israel, which they shall make toward this

place:hear thou from thy dwelling place, [even] from heaven; and

when thou hearest, forgive. <dwelling> <forgive> <hear>

<which>

2CH-6:22 If a man sin against his neighbour, and an oath be laid

upon him to make him swear, and the oath come before thine altar

in this house; <against> <altar> <before> <come> <him> <laid>

2CH-6:23 Then hear thou from heaven, and do, and judge thy

servants, by requiting the wicked, by recompensing his way upon

his own head; and by justifying the righteous, by giving him

according to his righteousness. <do> <giving> <head> <hear>

2CH-6:24 And if thy people Israel be put to the worse before the

enemy, because they have sinned against thee; and shall return

and confess thy name, and pray and make supplication before thee

in this house; <against> <because> <before> <confess> <enemy>

2CH-6:25 Then hear thou from the heavens, and forgive the sin of

thy people Israel, and bring them again unto the land which thou

gavest to them and to their fathers. <again> <bring> <fathers>

2CH-6:26 When the heaven is shut up, and there is no rain,

because they have sinned against thee; [yet] if they pray toward

this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when

thou dost afflict them; <afflict> <against> <because> <confess>

2CH-6:27 Then hear thou from heaven, and forgive the sin of thy

servants, and of thy people Israel, when thou hast taught them

the good way, wherein they should walk; and send rain upon thy

land, which thou hast given unto thy people for an inheritance.

2CH-6:28 If there be dearth in the land, if there be pestilence,

if there be blasting, or mildew, locusts, or caterpillars; if

their enemies besiege them in the cities of their land;

whatsoever sore or whatsoever sickness [there be]:<besiege>

2CH-6:29 [Then] what prayer [or] what supplication soever shall

be made of any man, or of all thy people Israel, when every one

shall know his own sore and his own grief, and shall spread

forth his hands in this house:<all> <any> <every> <forth>

2CH-6:30 Then hear thou from heaven thy dwelling place, and

forgive, and render unto every man according unto all his ways,

whose heart thou knowest; (for thou only knowest the hearts of

the children of men:) <all> <children> <dwelling> <every>

2CH-6:31 That they may fear thee, to walk in thy ways, so long

as they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.

2CH-6:32 Moreover concerning the stranger, which is not of thy

people Israel, but is come from a far country for thy great

name's sake, and thy mighty hand, and thy stretched out arm; if

they come and pray in this house; <arm> <come> <concerning>

2CH-6:33 Then hear thou from the heavens, [even] from thy

dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger

calleth to thee for; that all people of the earth may know thy

name, and fear thee, as [doth] thy people Israel, and may know

that this house which I have built is called by thy name. <all>

2CH-6:34 If thy people go out to war against their enemies by

the way that thou shalt send them, and they pray unto thee

toward this city which thou hast chosen, and the house which I

have built for thy name; <against> <built> <chosen> <city>

2CH-6:35 Then hear thou from the heavens their prayer and their

supplication, and maintain their cause. <cause> <hear> <heavens>

2CH-6:36 If they sin against thee, (for [there is] no man which

sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them over

before [their] enemies, and they carry them away captives unto a

land far off or near; <against> <angry> <away> <before>

2CH-6:37 Yet [if] they bethink themselves in the land whither

they are carried captive, and turn and pray unto thee in the

land of their captivity, saying, We have sinned, we have done

amiss, and have dealt wickedly; <amiss> <are> <bethink>

2CH-6:38 If they return to thee with all their heart and with

all their soul in the land of their captivity, whither they have

carried them captives, and pray toward their land, which thou

gavest unto their fathers, and [toward] the city which thou hast

chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name:

2CH-6:39 Then hear thou from the heavens, [even] from thy

dwelling place, their prayer and their supplications, and

maintain their cause, and forgive thy people which have sinned

against thee. <against> <cause> <dwelling> <forgive> <have>

2CH-6:40 Now, my God, let, I beseech thee, thine eyes be open,

and [let] thine ears [be] attent unto the prayer [that is made]

in this place. <attent> <beseech> <ears> <eyes> <god> <let>

2CH-6:41 Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place,

thou, and the ark of thy strength:let thy priests, O LORD God,

be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in

goodness. <arise> <ark> <clothed> <god> <goodness> <into> <let>

2CH-6:42 O LORD God, turn not away the face of thine anointed:

remember the mercies of David thy servant. <anointed> <away>

2CH-7:1 Now when Solomon had made an end of praying, the fire

came down from heaven, and consumed the burnt offering and the

sacrifices; and the glory of the LORD filled the house. <burnt>

2CH-7:2 And the priests could not enter into the house of the

LORD, because the glory of the LORD had filled the LORD'S house.

2CH-7:3 And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire

came down, and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they bowed

themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and

worshipped, and praised the LORD, [saying], For [he is] good;

for his mercy [endureth] for ever. <all> <bowed> <came>

2CH-7:4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices

before the LORD. <all> <before> <king> <lord> <offered> <people>

2CH-7:5 And king Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty and two

thousand oxen, and an hundred and twenty thousand sheep:so the

king and all the people dedicated the house of God. <all>

<two>

2CH-7:6 And the priests waited on their offices:the Levites also

with instruments of music of the LORD, which David the king had

made to praise the LORD, because his mercy [endureth] for ever,

when David praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded

trumpets before them, and all Israel stood. <all> <also>

2CH-7:7 Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of the court that

[was] before the house of the LORD:for there he offered burnt

offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the

brazen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the

burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat. <altar>

2CH-7:8 Also at the same time Solomon kept the feast seven days,

and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the

entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt. <all> <also>

2CH-7:9 And in the eighth day they made a solemn assembly:for

they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast

seven days. <altar> <assembly> <day> <days> <dedication>

2CH-7:10 And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month

he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in

heart for the goodness that the LORD had showed unto David, and

to Solomon, and to Israel his people. <away> <david> <day>

2CH-7:11 Thus Solomon finished the house of the LORD, and the

king's house:and all that came into Solomon's heart to make in

the house of the LORD, and in his own house, he prosperously

effected. <all> <came> <effected> <finished> <heart> <house>

2CH-7:12 And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said

unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to

myself for an house of sacrifice. <appeared> <chosen> <have>

2CH-7:13 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I

command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence

among my people; <among> <command> <devour> <heaven> <land>

2CH-7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble

themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their

wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive

their sin, and will heal their land. <are> <called> <face>

2CH-7:15 Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto

the prayer [that is made] in this place. <attent> <ears> <eyes>

2CH-7:16 For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that

my name may be there for ever:and mine eyes and mine heart shall

be there perpetually. <chosen> <ever> <eyes> <have> <heart>

2CH-7:17 And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David

thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded

thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments; <all>

2CH-7:18 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom,

according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying,

There shall not fail thee a man [to be] ruler in Israel.

<with>

2CH-7:19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my

commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and

serve other gods, and worship them; <away> <before>

2CH-7:20 Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land

which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified

for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it [to

be] a proverb and a byword among all nations. <all> <among>

2CH-7:21 And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment

to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath

the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house?

2CH-7:22 And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the LORD

God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land

of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and

served them:therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them.

2CH-8:1 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein

Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house,

2CH-8:2 That the cities which Huram had restored to Solomon,

Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell

there. <built> <caused> <children> <cities> <dwell> <had>

2CH-8:3 And Solomon went to Hamathzobah, and prevailed against

it. <against> <hamathzobah> <prevailed> <solomon> <went>

2CH-8:4 And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store

cities, which he built in Hamath. <all> <built> <cities>

2CH-8:5 Also he built Bethhoron the upper, and Bethhoron the

nether, fenced cities, with walls, gates, and bars; <also>

2CH-8:6 And Baalath, and all the store cities that Solomon had,

and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, and

all that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon,

and throughout all the land of his dominion. <all> <baalath>

2CH-8:7 [As for] all the people [that were] left of the Hittites,

and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the

Jebusites, which [were] not of Israel, <all> <amorites>

<which>

2CH-8:8 [But] of their children, who were left after them in the

land, whom the children of Israel consumed not, them did Solomon

make to pay tribute until this day. <after> <children>

2CH-8:9 But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no

servants for his work; but they [were] men of war, and chief of

his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen.

2CH-8:10 And these [were] the chief of king Solomon's officers,

[even] two hundred and fifty, that bare rule over the people.

2CH-8:11 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of

the city of David unto the house that he had built for her:for

he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of

Israel, because [the places are] holy, whereunto the ark of the

LORD hath come. <are> <ark> <because> <brought> <built> <city>

2CH-8:12 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the LORD on

the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the porch,

2CH-8:13 Even after a certain rate every day, offering according

to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new

moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, [even]

in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and

in the feast of tabernacles. <after> <bread> <certain>

2CH-8:14 And he appointed, according to the order of David his

father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the

Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the

priests, as the duty of every day required:the porters also by

their courses at every gate:for so had David the man of God

commanded. <also> <appointed> <before> <charges> <commanded>

2CH-8:15 And they departed not from the commandment of the king

unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or

concerning the treasures. <any> <commandment> <concerning>

2CH-8:16 Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day

of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was

finished. [So] the house of the LORD was perfected. <all> <day>

2CH-8:17 Then went Solomon to Eziongeber, and to Eloth, at the

sea side in the land of Edom. <edom> <eloth> <eziongeber> <land>

2CH-8:18 And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships,

and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with

the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and took thence four hundred

and fifty talents of gold, and brought [them] to king Solomon.

2CH-9:1 And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon,

she came to prove Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem,

with a very great company, and camels that bare spices, and gold

in abundance, and precious stones:and when she was come to

Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.

2CH-9:2 And Solomon told her all her questions:and there was

nothing hid from Solomon which he told her not. <all> <hid>

2CH-9:3 And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of

Solomon, and the house that he had built, <had> <house> <queen>

2CH-9:4 And the meat of his table, and the sitting of his

servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel;

his cupbearers also, and their apparel; and his ascent by which

he went up into the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit

in her. <also> <apparel> <ascent> <attendance> <cupbearers>

2CH-9:5 And she said to the king, [It was] a true report which I

heard in mine own land of thine acts, and of thy wisdom:<heard>

<which>

2CH-9:6 Howbeit I believed not their words, until I came, and

mine eyes had seen [it]:and, behold, the one half of the

greatness of thy wisdom was not told me:[for] thou exceedest the

fame that I heard. <behold> <believed> <came> <exceedest> <eyes>

2CH-9:7 Happy [are] thy men, and happy [are] these thy servants,

which stand continually before thee, and hear thy wisdom.

2CH-9:8 Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee to

set thee on his throne, [to be] king for the LORD thy God:

because thy God loved Israel, to establish them for ever,

therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and

justice. <because> <blessed> <delighted> <do> <establish> <ever>

2CH-9:9 And she gave the king an hundred and twenty talents of

gold, and of spices great abundance, and precious stones:neither

was there any such spice as the queen of Sheba gave king Solomon.

2CH-9:10 And the servants also of Huram, and the servants of

Solomon, which brought gold from Ophir, brought algum trees and

precious stones. <algum> <also> <brought> <gold> <huram> <ophir>

2CH-9:11 And the king made [of] the algum trees terraces to the

house of the LORD, and to the king's palace, and harps and

psalteries for singers:and there were none such seen before in

the land of Judah. <algum> <before> <harps> <house> <judah>

2CH-9:12 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her

desire, whatsoever she asked, beside [that] which she had

brought unto the king. So she turned, and went away to her own

land, she and her servants. <all> <asked> <away> <beside>

2CH-9:13 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year

was six hundred and threescore and six talents of gold; <came>

2CH-9:14 Beside [that which] chapmen and merchants brought. And

all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought

gold and silver to Solomon. <all> <arabia> <beside> <brought>

2CH-9:15 And king Solomon made two hundred targets [of] beaten

gold:six hundred [shekels] of beaten gold went to one target.

2CH-9:16 And three hundred shields [made he of] beaten gold:

three hundred [shekels] of gold went to one shield. And the king

put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon. <beaten>

2CH-9:17 Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and

overlaid it with pure gold. <gold> <great> <ivory> <king> <made>

2CH-9:18 And [there were] six steps to the throne, with a

footstool of gold, [which were] fastened to the throne, and

stays on each side of the sitting place, and two lions standing

by the stays:<each> <fastened> <footstool> <gold> <lions> <on>

2CH-9:19 And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the

other upon the six steps. There was not the like made in any

kingdom. <any> <kingdom> <like> <lions> <made> <on> <one>

2CH-9:20 And all the drinking vessels of king Solomon [were of]

gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon

[were of] pure gold:none [were of] silver; it was [not] any

thing accounted of in the days of Solomon. <all> <any> <days>

2CH-9:21 For the king's ships went to Tarshish with the servants

of Huram:every three years once came the ships of Tarshish

bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks. <apes>

2CH-9:22 And king Solomon passed all the kings of the earth in

riches and wisdom. <all> <earth> <king> <kings> <passed>

2CH-9:23 And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of

Solomon, to hear his wisdom, that God had put in his heart.

2CH-9:24 And they brought every man his present, vessels of

silver, and vessels of gold, and raiment, harness, and spices,

horses, and mules, a rate year by year. <brought> <every> <gold>

2CH-9:25 And Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and

chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen; whom he bestowed in the

chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem. <bestowed>

<with>

2CH-9:26 And he reigned over all the kings from the river even

unto the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt.

2CH-9:27 And the king made silver in Jerusalem as stones, and

cedar trees made he as the sycamore trees that [are] in the low

plains in abundance. <cedar> <jerusalem> <king> <low> <made>

2CH-9:28 And they brought unto Solomon horses out of Egypt, and

out of all lands. <all> <brought> <egypt> <horses> <lands>

2CH-9:29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last,

[are] they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in

the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo

the seer against Jeroboam the son of Nebat? <against> <ahijah>

2CH-9:30 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty

years. <all> <forty> <israel> <jerusalem> <over> <reigned>

2CH-9:31 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried

in the city of David his father:and Rehoboam his son reigned in

his stead. <buried> <city> <david> <father> <fathers> <rehoboam>

2CH-10:1 And Rehoboam went to Shechem:for to Shechem were all

Israel come to make him king. <all> <come> <him> <israel> <king>

2CH-10:2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat,

who [was] in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of

Solomon the king, heard [it], that Jeroboam returned out of

Egypt. <came> <egypt> <fled> <had> <heard> <jeroboam> <king>

2CH-10:3 And they sent and called him. So Jeroboam and all

Israel came and spake to Rehoboam, saying, <all> <called> <came>

2CH-10:4 Thy father made our yoke grievous:now therefore ease

thou somewhat the grievous servitude of thy father, and his

heavy yoke that he put upon us, and we will serve thee. <ease>

2CH-10:5 And he said unto them, Come again unto me after three

days. And the people departed. <after> <again> <come> <days>

2CH-10:6 And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that

had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying,

What counsel give ye [me] to return answer to this people?

2CH-10:7 And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind to

this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they

will be thy servants for ever. <ever> <good> <him> <kind>

2CH-10:8 But he forsook the counsel which the old men gave him,

and took counsel with the young men that were brought up with

him, that stood before him. <before> <brought> <counsel>

<young>

2CH-10:9 And he said unto them, What advice give ye that we may

return answer to this people, which have spoken to me, saying,

Ease somewhat the yoke that thy father did put upon us? <advice>

2CH-10:10 And the young men that were brought up with him spake

unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou answer the people that spake

unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou

[it] somewhat lighter for us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My

little [finger] shall be thicker than my father's loins.

2CH-10:11 For whereas my father put a heavy yoke upon you, I

will put more to your yoke:my father chastised you with whips,

but I [will chastise you] with scorpions. <chastise> <chastised>

2CH-10:12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the

third day, as the king bade, saying, Come again to me on the

third day. <again> <all> <bade> <came> <come> <day> <jeroboam>

2CH-10:13 And the king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam

forsook the counsel of the old men, <answered> <counsel>

2CH-10:14 And answered them after the advice of the young men,

saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add thereto:

my father chastised you with whips, but I [will chastise you]

with scorpions. <advice> <after> <answered> <chastise>

2CH-10:15 So the king hearkened not unto the people:for the

cause was of God, that the LORD might perform his word, which he

spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of

Nebat. <ahijah> <cause> <god> <hand> <hearkened> <jeroboam>

2CH-10:16 And when all Israel [saw] that the king would not

hearken unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What

portion have we in David? and [we have] none inheritance in the

son of Jesse:every man to your tents, O Israel:[and] now, David,

see to thine own house. So all Israel went to their tents. <all>

2CH-10:17 But [as for] the children of Israel that dwelt in the

cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them. <children> <cities>

2CH-10:18 Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that [was] over the

tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that

he died. But king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to [his]

chariot, to flee to Jerusalem. <chariot> <children> <died>

2CH-10:19 And Israel rebelled against the house of David unto

this day. <against> <david> <day> <house> <israel> <rebelled>

<this>

2CH-11:1 And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he gathered of

the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore

thousand chosen [men], which were warriors, to fight against

Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.

2CH-11:2 But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of

God, saying, <came> <god> <lord> <man> <shemaiah> <word>

2CH-11:3 Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah,

and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying, <all>

<speak>

2CH-11:4 Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight

against your brethren:return every man to his house:for this

thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and

returned from going against Jeroboam. <against> <brethren>

2CH-11:5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for

defence in Judah. <built> <cities> <defence> <dwelt> <jerusalem>

2CH-11:6 He built even Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,

2CH-11:7 And Bethzur, and Shoco, and Adullam, <bethzur> <shoco>

2CH-11:8 And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph, <gath> <mareshah>

2CH-11:9 And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah, <lachish>

2CH-11:10 And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which [are] in

Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities. <aijalon> <benjamin>

2CH-11:11 And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in

them, and store of victual, and of oil and wine. <captains>

2CH-11:12 And in every several city [he put] shields and spears,

and made them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his

side. <benjamin> <city> <every> <exceeding> <having> <judah>
