1Now when Solomon^H8010 had made an end^H3615 of praying^H6419, the fire^H784 came down^H3381 from heaven^H8064, and consumed^H398 the burnt-offering^H5930 and the sacrifices^H2077; and the glory^H3519 of Jehovah^H3068 filled^H4390 the house^H1004. 2And the priests^H3548 could^H3201 not enter^H935 into the house^H1004 of Jehovah^H3068, because the glory^H3519 of Jehovah^H3068 filled^H4390 Jehovah's^H3068 house^H1004. 3And all the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 looked^H7200 on, when the fire^H784 came down^H3381, and the glory^H3519 of Jehovah^H3068 was upon the house^H1004; and they bowed^H3766 themselves with their faces^H639 to the ground^H776 upon the pavement^H7531, and worshipped^H7812, and gave thanks^H3034 unto Jehovah^H3068, saying, For he is good^H2896; for his lovingkindness^H2617 endureth for ever^H5769. 4Then the king^H4428 and all the people^H5971 offered^H2076 sacrifice^H2077 before^H6440 Jehovah^H3068. 5And king^H4428 Solomon^H8010 offered^H2076 a sacrifice^H2077 of twenty^H6242 and two^H8147 thousand^H505 oxen^H1241, and a hundred^H3967 and twenty^H6242 thousand^H505 sheep^H6629. So the king^H4428 and all the people^H5971 dedicated^H2596 the house^H1004 of God^H430. 6And the priests^H3548 stood^H5975, according to their offices^H4931; the Levites^H3881 also with instruments^H3627 of music^H7892 of Jehovah^H3068, which David^H1732 the king^H4428 had made^H6213 to give thanks^H3034 unto Jehovah^H3068, (for his lovingkindness^H2617 endureth for ever^H5769,) when David^H1732 praised^H1984 by their ministry^H3027: and the priests^H3548 sounded trumpets^H2690 before them; and all Israel^H3478 stood^H5975. 7Moreover Solomon^H8010 hallowed^H6942 the middle^H8432 of the court^H2691 that was before^H6440 the house^H1004 of Jehovah^H3068; for there he offered^H6213 the burnt-offerings^H5930, and the fat^H2459 of the peace-offerings^H5930, because the brazen^H5178 altar^H4196 which Solomon^H8010 had made^H6213 was not able^H3201 to receive^H3557 the burnt-offering^H5930, and the meal-offering^H4503, and the fat^H2459. 8So Solomon^H8010 held^H6213 the feast^H2282 at that time^H6256 seven^H7651 days^H3117, and all Israel^H3478 with him, a very^H3966 great^H1419 assembly^H6951, from the entrance^H935 of Hamath^H2574 unto the brook^H5158 of Egypt^H4714. 9And on the eighth^H8066 day^H3117 they held^H6213 a solemn assembly^H6116: for they kept^H6213 the dedication^H2598 of the altar^H4196 seven^H7651 days^H3117, and the feast^H2282 seven^H7651 days^H3117. 10And on the three^H7969 and twentieth^H6242 day^H3117 of the seventh^H7637 month^H2320 he sent^H7971 the people^H5971 away^H7971 unto their tents^H168, joyful^H2896 and glad^H8056 of heart^H3820 for the goodness^H2896 that Jehovah^H3068 had showed^H6213 unto David^H1732, and to Solomon^H8010, and to Israel^H3478 his people^H5971. 11Thus Solomon^H8010 finished^H3615 the house^H1004 of Jehovah^H3068, and the king's^H4428 house^H1004: and all that came^H935 into Solomon's^H8010 heart^H3820 to make^H6213 in the house^H1004 of Jehovah^H3068, and in his own house^H1004, he prosperously effected^H6743. 12And Jehovah^H3068 appeared^H7200 to Solomon^H8010 by night^H3915, and said^H559 unto him, I have heard^H8085 thy prayer^H8605, and have chosen^H977 this place^H4725 to myself for a house^H1004 of sacrifice^H2077. 13If^H2005 I shut up^H6113 the heavens^H8064 so that there is no rain^H4306, or if I command^H6680 the locust^H2284 to devour^H398 the land^H776, or if I send^H7971 pestilence^H1698 among my people^H5971; 14if my people^H5971, who are called^H7121 by my name^H8034, shall humble^H3665 themselves, and pray^H6419, and seek^H1245 my face^H6440, and turn^H7725 from their wicked^H7451 ways^H1870; then will I hear^H8085 from heaven^H8064, and will forgive^H5545 their sin^H2403, and will heal^H7495 their land^H776. 15Now mine eyes^H5869 shall be open^H6605, and mine ears^H241 attent^H7183, unto the prayer^H8605 that is made in this place^H4725. 16For now have I chosen^H977 and hallowed^H6942 this house^H1004, that my name^H8034 may be there for^H5704 ever^H5769; and mine eyes^H5869 and my heart^H3820 shall be there perpetually^H3117. 17And as for thee, if thou wilt walk^H3212 before^H6440 me as David^H1732 thy father^H1 walked^H1980, and do^H6213 according to all that I have commanded^H6680 thee, and wilt keep^H8104 my statutes^H2706 and mine ordinances^H4941; 18then I will establish^H6965 the throne^H3678 of thy kingdom^H4438, according as I covenanted^H3772 with David^H1732 thy father^H1, saying^H559, There shall not fail^H3772 thee a man^H376 to be ruler^H4910 in Israel^H3478. 19But if ye turn away^H7725, and forsake^H5800 my statutes^H2708 and my commandments^H4687 which I have set^H5414 before^H6440 you, and shall go^H1980 and serve^H5647 other^H312 gods^H430, and worship^H7812 them; 20then will I pluck them up by the roots^H5428 out of my land^H127 which I have given^H5414 them; and this house^H1004, which I have hallowed^H6942 for my name^H8034, will I cast out^H7993 of my sight^H6440, and I will make^H5414 it a proverb^H4912 and a byword^H8148 among all peoples^H5971. 21And this house^H1004, which is so high^H5945, every one that passeth^H5674 by it shall be astonished^H8074, and shall say^H559, Why hath Jehovah^H3068 done^H6213 thus unto this land^H776, and to this house^H1004? 22And they shall answer^H559, Because they forsook^H5800 Jehovah^H3068, the God^H430 of their fathers^H1, who brought them forth^H3318 out of the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, and laid hold^H2388 on other^H312 gods^H430, and worshipped^H7812 them, and served^H5647 them: therefore hath he brought^H935 all this evil^H7451 upon them.
