1KI-5:7 And it came to pass, when Hiram heard the words of

Solomon, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed [be] the

LORD this day, which hath given unto David a wise son over this

great people. <blessed> <came> <david> <day> <given> <great>

<words>

1KI-5:8 And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the

things which thou sentest to me for:[and] I will do all thy

desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.

1KI-5:9 My servants shall bring [them] down from Lebanon unto

the sea:and I will convey them by sea in floats unto the place

that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be discharged

there, and thou shalt receive [them] :and thou shalt accomplish

my desire, in giving food for my household. <appoint> <bring>

1KI-5:10 So Hiram gave Solomon cedar trees and fir trees

[according to] all his desire. <all> <cedar> <desire> <fir>

1KI-5:11 And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of

wheat [for] food to his household, and twenty measures of pure

oil:thus gave Solomon to Hiram year by year. <food> <gave>

1KI-5:12 And the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as he promised him:

and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made

a league together. <between> <gave> <him> <hiram> <league>

1KI-5:13 And king Solomon raised a levy out of all Israel; and

the levy was thirty thousand men. <all> <israel> <king> <levy>

1KI-5:14 And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by

courses:a month they were in Lebanon, [and] two months at home:

and Adoniram [was] over the levy. <courses> <home> <lebanon>

1KI-5:15 And Solomon had threescore and ten thousand that bare

burdens, and fourscore thousand hewers in the mountains; <bare>

1KI-5:16 Beside the chief of Solomon's officers which [were]

over the work, three thousand and three hundred, which ruled

over the people that wrought in the work. <beside> <chief>

1KI-5:17 And the king commanded, and they brought great stones,

costly stones, [and] hewed stones, to lay the foundation of the

house. <brought> <commanded> <costly> <foundation> <great>

1KI-5:18 And Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders did hew

[them] , and the stonesquarers:so they prepared timber and

stones to build the house. <build> <builders> <did> <hew>

1KI-6:1 And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth

year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of

Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the

month Zif, which [is] the second month, that he began to build

the house of the LORD. <after> <began> <build> <came> <children>

1KI-6:2 And the house which king Solomon built for the LORD, the

length thereof [was] threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof

twenty [cubits] , and the height thereof thirty cubits.

1KI-6:3 And the porch before the temple of the house, twenty

cubits [was] the length thereof, according to the breadth of the

house; [and] ten cubits [was] the breadth thereof before the

house. <before> <breadth> <cubits> <house> <length> <porch>

1KI-6:4 And for the house he made windows of narrow lights.

1KI-6:5 And against the wall of the house he built chambers

round about, [against] the walls of the house round about,

[both] of the temple and of the oracle:and he made chambers

round about:<against> <both> <built> <chambers> <house> <made>

1KI-6:6 The nethermost chamber [was] five cubits broad, and the

middle [was] six cubits broad, and the third [was] seven cubits

broad:for without [in the wall] of the house he made narrowed

rests round about, that [the beams] should not be fastened in

the walls of the house. <beams> <broad> <chamber> <cubits>

1KI-6:7 And the house, when it was in building, was built of

stone made ready before it was brought thither:so that there was

neither hammer nor ax [nor] any tool of iron heard in the house,

while it was in building. <any> <ax> <before> <brought>

1KI-6:8 The door for the middle chamber [was] in the right side

of the house:and they went up with winding stairs into the

middle [chamber] , and out of the middle into the third.

1KI-6:9 So he built the house, and finished it; and covered the

house with beams and boards of cedar. <beams> <boards> <built>

1KI-6:10 And [then] he built chambers against all the house,

five cubits high:and they rested on the house [with] timber of

cedar. <against> <all> <built> <cedar> <chambers> <cubits>

1KI-6:11 And the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying,

1KI-6:12 [Concerning] this house which thou art in building, if

thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and

keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my

word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:<all> <art>

1KI-6:13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will

not forsake my people Israel. <among> <children> <dwell>

1KI-6:14 So Solomon built the house, and finished it. <built>

1KI-6:15 And he built the walls of the house within with boards

of cedar, both the floor of the house, and the walls of the

ceiling:[and] he covered [them] on the inside with wood, and

covered the floor of the house with planks of fir. <boards>

1KI-6:16 And he built twenty cubits on the sides of the house,

both the floor and the walls with boards of cedar:he even built

[them] for it within, [even] for the oracle, [even] for the most

holy [place] . <boards> <both> <built> <cedar> <cubits> <even>

1KI-6:17 And the house, that [is] , the temple before it, was

forty cubits [long] . <before> <cubits> <forty> <house> <long>

1KI-6:18 And the cedar of the house within [was] carved with

knops and open flowers:all [was] cedar; there was no stone seen.

1KI-6:19 And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set

there the ark of the covenant of the LORD. <ark> <covenant>

1KI-6:20 And the oracle in the forepart [was] twenty cubits in

length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the

height thereof:and he overlaid it with pure gold; and [so]

covered the altar [which was of] cedar. <altar> <breadth>

1KI-6:21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold:and

he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and

he overlaid it with gold. <before> <chains> <gold> <house>

1KI-6:22 And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had

finished all the house:also the whole altar that [was] by the

oracle he overlaid with gold. <all> <also> <altar> <finished>

1KI-6:23 And within the oracle he made two cherubims [of] olive

tree, [each] ten cubits high. <cherubims> <cubits> <each> <high>

1KI-6:24 And five cubits [was] the one wing of the cherub, and

five cubits the other wing of the cherub:from the uttermost part

of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other [were] ten

cubits. <cherub> <cubits> <five> <one> <other> <part> <ten>

1KI-6:25 And the other cherub [was] ten cubits:both the

cherubims [were] of one measure and one size. <both> <cherub>

1KI-6:26 The height of the one cherub [was] ten cubits, and so

[was it] of the other cherub. <cherub> <cubits> <height> <one>

1KI-6:27 And he set the cherubims within the inner house:and

they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the

wing of the one touched the [one] wall, and the wing of the

other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one

another in the midst of the house. <another> <cherub>

1KI-6:28 And he overlaid the cherubims with gold. <cherubims>

1KI-6:29 And he carved all the walls of the house round about

with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers,

within and without. <all> <carved> <cherubims> <figures>

1KI-6:30 And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold,

within and without. <floor> <gold> <house> <overlaid> <with>

1KI-6:31 And for the entering of the oracle he made doors [of]

olive tree:the lintel [and] side posts [were] a fifth part [of

the wall] . <doors> <entering> <fifth> <lintel> <made> <olive>

1KI-6:32 The two doors also [were of] olive tree; and he carved

upon them carvings of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers,

and overlaid [them] with gold, and spread gold upon the

cherubims, and upon the palm trees. <also> <carved> <carvings>

1KI-6:33 So also made he for the door of the temple posts [of]

olive tree, a fourth part [of the wall] . <also> <door> <fourth>

1KI-6:34 And the two doors [were of] fir tree:the two leaves of

the one door [were] folding, and the two leaves of the other

door [were] folding. <door> <doors> <fir> <folding> <leaves>

1KI-6:35 And he carved [thereon] cherubims and palm trees and

open flowers:and covered [them] with gold fitted upon the carved

work. <carved> <cherubims> <covered> <fitted> <flowers> <gold>

1KI-6:36 And he built the inner court with three rows of hewed

stone, and a row of cedar beams. <beams> <built> <cedar> <court>

1KI-6:37 In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of

the LORD laid, in the month Zif:<foundation> <fourth> <house>

1KI-6:38 And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which [is]

the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the

parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he

seven years in building it. <all> <building> <bul> <eighth>

1KI-7:1 But Solomon was building his own house thirteen years,

and he finished all his house. <all> <building> <finished>

1KI-7:2 He built also the house of the forest of Lebanon; the

length thereof [was] an hundred cubits, and the breadth thereof

fifty cubits, and the height thereof thirty cubits, upon four

rows of cedar pillars, with cedar beams upon the pillars. <also>

1KI-7:3 And [it was] covered with cedar above upon the beams,

that [lay] on forty five pillars, fifteen [in] a row. <beams>

1KI-7:4 And [there were] windows [in] three rows, and light

[was] against light [in] three ranks. <against> <light> <ranks>

1KI-7:5 And all the doors and posts [were] square, with the

windows:and light [was] against light [in] three ranks.

1KI-7:6 And he made a porch of pillars; the length thereof [was]

fifty cubits, and the breadth thereof thirty cubits:and the

porch [was] before them:and the [other] pillars and the thick

beam [were] before them. <beam> <before> <breadth> <cubits>

1KI-7:7 Then he made a porch for the throne where he might judge,

[even] the porch of judgment:and [it was] covered with cedar

from one side of the floor to the other. <cedar> <covered>

1KI-7:8 And his house where he dwelt [had] another court within

the porch, [which] was of the like work. Solomon made also an

house for Pharaoh's daughter, whom he had taken [to wife] , like

unto this porch. <also> <another> <court> <daughter> <dwelt>

1KI-7:9 All these [were of] costly stones, according to the

measures of hewed stones, sawed with saws, within and without,

even from the foundation unto the coping, and [so] on the

outside toward the great court. <all> <coping> <costly> <court>

1KI-7:10 And the foundation [was of] costly stones, even great

stones, stones of ten cubits, and stones of eight cubits.

<ten>

1KI-7:11 And above [were] costly stones, after the measures of

hewed stones, and cedars. <after> <cedars> <costly> <hewed>

1KI-7:12 And the great court round about [was] with three rows

of hewed stones, and a row of cedar beams, both for the inner

court of the house of the LORD, and for the porch of the house.

1KI-7:13 And king Solomon sent and fetched Hiram out of Tyre.

1KI-7:14 He [was] a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtali, and

his father [was] a man of Tyre, a worker in brass:and he was

filled with wisdom, and understanding, and cunning to work all

works in brass. And he came to king Solomon, and wrought all his

work. <all> <brass> <came> <cunning> <father> <filled> <king>

1KI-7:15 For he cast two pillars of brass, of eighteen cubits

high apiece:and a line of twelve cubits did compass either of

them about. <apiece> <brass> <cast> <compass> <cubits> <did>

1KI-7:16 And he made two chapiters [of] molten brass, to set

upon the tops of the pillars:the height of the one chapiter

[was] five cubits, and the height of the other chapiter [was]

five cubits:<brass> <chapiter> <chapiters> <cubits> <five>

<two>

1KI-7:17 [And] nets of checker work, and wreaths of chain work,

for the chapiters which [were] upon the top of the pillars;

seven for the one chapiter, and seven for the other chapiter.

1KI-7:18 And he made the pillars, and two rows round about upon

the one network, to cover the chapiters that [were] upon the top,

with pomegranates:and so did he for the other chapiter.

<with>

1KI-7:19 And the chapiters that [were] upon the top of the

pillars [were] of lily work in the porch, four cubits.

1KI-7:20 And the chapiters upon the two pillars [had

pomegranates] also above, over against the belly which [was] by

the network:and the pomegranates [were] two hundred in rows

round about upon the other chapiter. <against> <also> <belly>

1KI-7:21 And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple:

and he set up the right pillar, and called the name thereof

Jachin:and he set up the left pillar, and called the name

thereof Boaz. <boaz> <called> <jachin> <left> <name> <pillar>

1KI-7:22 And upon the top of the pillars [was] lily work:so was

the work of the pillars finished. <finished> <lily> <pillars>

1KI-7:23 And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim

to the other:[it was] round all about, and his height [was] five

cubits:and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.

1KI-7:24 And under the brim of it round about [there were] knops

compassing it, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about:

the knops [were] cast in two rows, when it was cast. <brim>

1KI-7:25 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the

north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking

toward the south, and three looking toward the east:and the sea

[was set] above upon them, and all their hinder parts [were]

inward. <all> <east> <hinder> <inward> <looking> <north> <oxen>

<west>

1KI-7:26 And it [was] an hand breadth thick, and the brim

thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of

lilies:it contained two thousand baths. <baths> <breadth> <brim>

1KI-7:27 And he made ten bases of brass; four cubits [was] the

length of one base, and four cubits the breadth thereof, and

three cubits the height of it. <base> <bases> <brass> <breadth>

<three>

1KI-7:28 And the work of the bases [was] on this [manner] :they

had borders, and the borders [were] between the ledges:<bases>

1KI-7:29 And on the borders that [were] between the ledges

[were] lions, oxen, and cherubims:and upon the ledges [there

was] a base above:and beneath the lions and oxen [were] certain

additions made of thin work. <base> <beneath> <between>

1KI-7:30 And every base had four brazen wheels, and plates of

brass:and the four corners thereof had undersetters:under the

laver [were] undersetters molten, at the side of every addition.

1KI-7:31 And the mouth of it within the chapiter and above [was]

a cubit:but the mouth thereof [was] round [after] the work of

the base, a cubit and an half:and also upon the mouth of it

[were] gravings with their borders, foursquare, not round.

<work>

1KI-7:32 And under the borders [were] four wheels; and the

axletrees of the wheels [were joined] to the base:and the height

of a wheel [was] a cubit and half a cubit. <axletrees> <base>

1KI-7:33 And the work of the wheels [was] like the work of a

chariot wheel:their axletrees, and their naves, and their

felloes, and their spokes, [were] all molten. <all> <axletrees>

1KI-7:34 And [there were] four undersetters to the four corners

of one base:[and] the undersetters [were] of the very base

itself. <base> <corners> <four> <itself> <one> <there>

1KI-7:35 And in the top of the base [was there] a round compass

of half a cubit high:and on the top of the base the ledges

thereof and the borders thereof [were] of the same. <base>

1KI-7:36 For on the plates of the ledges thereof, and on the

borders thereof, he graved cherubims, lions, and palm trees,

according to the proportion of every one, and additions round

about. <borders> <cherubims> <every> <graved> <ledges> <lions>

1KI-7:37 After this [manner] he made the ten bases:all of them

had one casting, one measure, [and] one size. <after> <all>

1KI-7:38 Then made he ten lavers of brass:one laver contained

forty baths:[and] every laver was four cubits:[and] upon every

one of the ten bases one laver. <bases> <baths> <brass>

1KI-7:39 And he put five bases on the right side of the house,

and five on the left side of the house:and he set the sea on the

right side of the house eastward over against the south.

1KI-7:40 And Hiram made the lavers, and the shovels, and the

basins. So Hiram made an end of doing all the work that he made

king Solomon for the house of the LORD:<all> <basins> <doing>

1KI-7:41 The two pillars, and the [two] bowls of the chapiters

that [were] on the top of the two pillars; and the two networks,

to cover the two bowls of the chapiters which [were] upon the

top of the pillars; <bowls> <chapiters> <cover> <networks> <on>

1KI-7:42 And four hundred pomegranates for the two networks,

[even] two rows of pomegranates for one network, to cover the

two bowls of the chapiters that [were] upon the pillars; <bowls>

1KI-7:43 And the ten bases, and ten lavers on the bases; <bases>

1KI-7:44 And one sea, and twelve oxen under the sea; <one>

1KI-7:45 And the pots, and the shovels, and the basins:and all

these vessels, which Hiram made to king Solomon for the house of

the LORD, [were of] bright brass. <all> <basins> <brass>

1KI-7:46 In the plain of Jordan did the king cast them, in the

clay ground between Succoth and Zarthan. <between> <cast> <clay>

1KI-7:47 And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed] , because

they were exceeding many:neither was the weight of the brass

found out. <all> <because> <brass> <exceeding> <found> <left>

1KI-7:48 And Solomon made all the vessels that [pertained] unto

the house of the LORD:the altar of gold, and the table of gold,

whereupon the showbread [was] , <all> <altar> <gold> <house>

1KI-7:49 And the candlesticks of pure gold, five on the right

[side] , and five on the left, before the oracle, with the

flowers, and the lamps, and the tongs [of] gold, <before>

1KI-7:50 And the bowls, and the snuffers, and the basins, and

the spoons, and the censers [of] pure gold; and the hinges [of]

gold, [both] for the doors of the inner house, the most holy

[place, and] for the doors of the house, [to wit] , of the

temple. <basins> <both> <bowls> <censers> <doors> <gold>

1KI-7:51 So was ended all the work that king Solomon made for

the house of the LORD. And Solomon brought in the things which

David his father had dedicated; [even] the silver, and the gold,

and the vessels, did he put among the treasures of the house of

the LORD. <all> <among> <brought> <david> <dedicated> <did>

1KI-8:1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the

heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of

Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up

the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David,

which [is] Zion. <all> <ark> <assembled> <bring> <chief>

1KI-8:2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king

Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which [is] the

seventh month. <all> <assembled> <ethanim> <feast> <israel>

1KI-8:3 And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took

up the ark. <all> <ark> <came> <elders> <israel> <priests> <took>

1KI-8:4 And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the

tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that

[were] in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the

Levites bring up. <all> <ark> <bring> <brought> <congregation>

1KI-8:5 And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel,

that were assembled unto him, [were] with him before the ark,

sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered

for multitude. <all> <ark> <assembled> <before> <congregation>

1KI-8:6 And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of

the LORD unto his place, into the oracle of the house, to the

most holy [place, even] under the wings of the cherubims. <ark>

1KI-8:7 For the cherubims spread forth [their] two wings over

the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the

staves thereof above. <ark> <cherubims> <covered> <forth> <over>

1KI-8:8 And they drew out the staves, that the ends of the

staves were seen out in the holy [place] before the oracle, and

they were not seen without:and there they are unto this day.

1KI-8:9 [There was] nothing in the ark save the two tables of

stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made [a

covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of the

land of Egypt. <ark> <came> <children> <covenant> <egypt>

1KI-8:10 And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of

the holy [place] , that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,

1KI-8:11 So that the priests could not stand to minister because

of the cloud:for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of

the LORD. <because> <cloud> <could> <filled> <glory> <had>

1KI-8:12 Then spake Solomon, The LORD said that he would dwell

in the thick darkness. <darkness> <dwell> <lord> <said>

1KI-8:13 I have surely built thee an house to dwell in, a

settled place for thee to abide in for ever. <built> <dwell>

1KI-8:14 And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the

congregation of Israel:( and all the congregation of Israel

stood; ) <all> <blessed> <congregation> <face> <israel> <king>

1KI-8:15 And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, which

spake with his mouth unto David my father, and hath with his

hand fulfilled [it] , saying, <blessed> <david> <father>

1KI-8:16 Since the day that I brought forth my people Israel out

of Egypt, I chose no city out of all the tribes of Israel to

build an house, that my name might be therein; but I chose David

to be over my people Israel. <all> <brought> <build> <chose>

1KI-8:17 And it was in the heart of David my father to build an

house for the name of the LORD God of Israel. <build> <david>

1KI-8:18 And the LORD said unto David my father, Whereas it was

in thine heart to build an house unto my name, thou didst well

that it was in thine heart. <build> <david> <didst> <father>

1KI-8:19 Nevertheless thou shalt not build the house; but thy

son that shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the

house unto my name. <build> <come> <forth> <house> <loins>

1KI-8:20 And the LORD hath performed his word that he spake, and

I am risen up in the room of David my father, and sit on the

throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built an house

for the name of the LORD God of Israel. <built> <david> <father>

<word>

1KI-8:21 And I have set there a place for the ark, wherein [is]

the covenant of the LORD, which he made with our fathers, when

he brought them out of the land of Egypt. <ark> <brought>

1KI-8:22 And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the

presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his

hands toward heaven:<all> <altar> <before> <congregation>

1KI-8:23 And he said, LORD God of Israel, [there is] no God like

thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath, who keepest covenant

and mercy with thy servants that walk before thee with all their

heart:<all> <before> <beneath> <covenant> <earth> <god> <heart>

1KI-8:24 Who hast kept with thy servant David my father that

thou promisedst him:thou spakest also with thy mouth, and hast

fulfilled [it] with thine hand, as [it is] this day. <also>

<with>

1KI-8:25 Therefore now, LORD God of Israel, keep with thy

servant David my father that thou promisedst him, saying, There

shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit on the throne of

Israel; so that thy children take heed to their way, that they

walk before me as thou hast walked before me. <before>

1KI-8:26 And now, O God of Israel, let thy word, I pray thee, be

verified, which thou spakest unto thy servant David my father.

1KI-8:27 But will God indeed dwell on the earth? behold, the

heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less

this house that I have builded? <behold> <builded> <cannot>

1KI-8:28 Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of thy servant,

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

and to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee to day:

1KI-8:29 That thine eyes may be open toward this house night and

day, [even] toward the place of which thou hast said, My name

shall be there:that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which

thy servant shall make toward this place. <day> <even> <eyes>

1KI-8:30 And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant,

and of thy people Israel, when they shall pray toward this place:

and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place:and when thou hearest,

forgive. <dwelling> <forgive> <hear> <hearest> <hearken>

1KI-8:31 If any man trespass against his neighbour, and an oath

be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before

thine altar in this house:<against> <altar> <any> <before>

1KI-8:32 Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy

servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head;

and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his

righteousness. <bring> <condemning> <do> <give> <head> <hear>

1KI-8:33 When thy people Israel be smitten down before the enemy,

because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to

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