¹ Thus all the work that Solomon made for the house of the LORD was finished: and Solomon brought in all the things that David his father had dedicated; and the silver, and the gold, and all the instruments, put he among the treasures of the house of God.

² 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 Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.

³ Wherefore all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king in the feast which was in the seventh month.

⁴ And all the elders of Israel came; and the Levites took up the ark.

⁵ And they brought up the ark, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, these did the priests and the Levites bring up.

⁶ Also king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel that were assembled unto him before the ark, sacrificed sheep and oxen, which could not be told nor numbered for multitude.

⁷ And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto his place, to the oracle of the house, into the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim:

⁸ For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above.

⁹ And they drew out the staves of the ark, that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there it is unto this day.

¹⁰ There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put therein at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

¹¹ And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place: (for all the priests that were present were sanctified, and did not then wait by course:

¹² Also the Levites which were the singers, all of them of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, being arrayed in white linen, having cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them an hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets:)

¹³ It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the LORD;

¹⁴ So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of God.

¹ Thus all the work ^H4399 that Solomon ^H8010 made ^H6213 for the house ^H1004 of the LORD ^H3068 was finished: ^H7999 and Solomon ^H8010 brought ^H935 in all the things ^H6944 that David ^H1732 his father ^H1 had dedicated; ^H6944 and the silver, ^H3701 and the gold, ^H2091 and all the instruments, ^H3627 put ^H5414 he among the treasures ^H214 of the house ^H1004 of God. ^H430

² Then Solomon ^H8010 assembled ^H6950 the elders ^H2205 of Israel, ^H3478 and all the heads ^H7218 of the tribes, ^H4294 the chief ^H5387 of the fathers ^H1 of the children ^H1121 of Israel, ^H3478 unto Jerusalem, ^H3389 to bring up ^H5927 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the LORD ^H3068 out of the city ^H5892 of David, ^H1732 which is Zion. ^H6726

³ Wherefore all the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 assembled ^H6950 themselves unto the king ^H4428 in the feast ^H2282 which was in the seventh ^H7637 month. ^H2320

⁴ And all the elders ^H2205 of Israel ^H3478 came; ^H935 and the Levites ^H3881 took up ^H5375 the ark. ^H727

⁵ And they brought up ^H5927 the ark, ^H727 and the tabernacle ^H168 of the congregation, ^H4150 and all the holy ^H6944 vessels ^H3627 that were in the tabernacle, ^H168 these did the priests ^H3548 and the Levites ^H3881 bring up. ^H5927

⁶ Also king ^H4428 Solomon, ^H8010 and all the congregation ^H5712 of Israel ^H3478 that were assembled ^H3259 unto him before ^H6440 the ark, ^H727 sacrificed ^H2076 sheep ^H6629 and oxen, ^H1241 which could not be told ^H5608 nor numbered ^H4487 for multitude. ^H7230

⁷ And the priests ^H3548 brought in ^H935 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the LORD ^H3068 unto his place, ^H4725 to the oracle ^H1687 of the house, ^H1004 into the most ^H6944 holy ^H6944 place, even under the wings ^H3671 of the cherubims: ^H3742

⁸ For the cherubims ^H3742 spread forth ^H6566 their wings ^H3671 over the place ^H4725 of the ark, ^H727 and the cherubims ^H3742 covered ^H3680 the ark ^H727 and the staves ^H905 thereof above. ^H4605

⁹ And they drew out ^H748 the staves ^H905 of the ark, that the ends ^H7218 of the staves ^H905 were seen ^H7200 from the ark ^H727 before ^H6440 the oracle; ^H1687 but they were not seen ^H7200 without. ^H2351 And there it is unto this day. ^H3117

¹⁰ There was nothing in the ark ^H727 save the two ^H8147 tables ^H3871 which Moses ^H4872 put ^H5414 therein at Horeb, ^H2722 when the LORD ^H3068 made ^H3772 a covenant with the children ^H1121 of Israel, ^H3478 when they came out ^H3318 of Egypt. ^H4714

¹¹ And it came to pass, when the priests ^H3548 were come out ^H3318 of the holy ^H6944 place: (for all the priests ^H3548 that were present ^H4672 were sanctified, ^H6942 and did not then wait ^H8104 by course: ^H4256

¹² Also the Levites ^H3881 which were the singers, ^H7891 all of them of Asaph, ^H623 of Heman, ^H1968 of Jeduthun, ^H3038 with their sons ^H1121 and their brethren, ^H251 being arrayed ^H3847 in white linen, ^H948 having cymbals ^H4700 and psalteries ^H5035 and harps, ^H3658 stood ^H5975 at the east end ^H4217 of the altar, ^H4196 and with them an hundred ^H3967 and twenty ^H6242 priests ^H3548 sounding ^H2690 with trumpets:) ^H2689

¹³ It came even to pass, as the trumpeters ^{H2690 H2690} and singers ^H7891 were as one, ^H259 to make one ^H259 sound ^H6963 to be heard ^H8085 in praising ^H1984 and thanking ^H3034 the LORD; ^H3068 and when they lifted up ^H7311 their voice ^H6963 with the trumpets ^H2689 and cymbals ^H4700 and instruments ^H3627 of musick, ^H7892 and praised ^H1984 the LORD, ^H3068 saying, For he is good; ^H2896 for his mercy ^H2617 endureth for ever: ^H5769 that then the house ^H1004 was filled ^H4390 with a cloud, ^H6051 even the house ^H1004 of the LORD; ^H3068

¹⁴ So that the priests ^H3548 could ^H3201 not stand ^H5975 to minister ^H8334 by reason ^H6440 of the cloud: ^H6051 for the glory ^H3519 of the LORD ^H3068 had filled ^H4390 the house ^H1004 of God. ^H430

¹ Thus all the work that Solomon wrought for the house of Jehovah was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of the house of God.

² Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers' `houses' of the children of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the city of David, which is Zion.

³ nd all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto the king at the feast, which was `in' the seventh month.

⁴ And all the elders of Israel came: and the Levites took up the ark;

⁵ and they brought up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these did the priests the Levites bring up.

⁶ And king Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

⁷ And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

⁸ For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the staves thereof above.

⁹ And the staves were so long that the ends of the staves were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without: and there it is unto this day.

¹⁰ There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put `there' at Horeb, when Jehovah made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

¹¹ And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, (for all the priests that were present had sanctified themselves, and did not keep their courses;

¹² also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brethren, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets;)

¹³ it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Jehovah; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised Jehovah, `saying', For he is good; for his lovingkindness `endureth' for ever; that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of Jehovah,

¹⁴ so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Jehovah filled the house of God.

¹ And all the work that Solomon made for the house of Jehovah is finished, and Solomon bringeth in the sanctified things of David his father, and the silver, and the gold, and all the vessels he hath put among the treasures of the house of God.

² Then doth Solomon assemble the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, princes of the fathers of the sons of Israel, unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the city of David -- it `is' Zion.

³ And assembled unto the king are all the men of Israel in the feast -- it `is' the seventh month;

⁴ and all the elders of Israel come in, and the Levites lift up the ark,

⁵ and they bring up the ark, and the tent of meeting, and all the vessels of the sanctuary that `are' in the tent; brought them up have the priests, the Levites;

⁶ and king Solomon and all the company of Israel who are convened unto him before the ark are sacrificing sheep and oxen, that are not counted nor numbered from multitude.

⁷ And the priests bring in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah unto its place, unto the oracle of the house, unto the holy of holies, unto the place of the wings of the cherubs;

⁸ and the cherubs are spreading out wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs cover over the ark, and over its staves, from above;

⁹ and they lengthen the staves, and the heads of the staves are seen out of the ark on the front of the oracle, and they are not seen without; and it is there unto this day.

¹⁰ There is nothing in the ark but the two tables that Moses gave in Horeb, where Jehovah covenanted with the sons of Israel, in their going out from Egypt.

¹¹ And it cometh to pass, in the going out of the priests from the sanctuary -- for all the priests who are present have sanctified themselves, there is none to watch by courses,

¹² and the Levites, the singers, to all of them, to Asaph, to Heman, to Jeduthun, and to their sons, and to their brethren, clothed in white linen, with cymbals, and with psalteries, and harps, are standing on the east of the altar, and with them priests, to a hundred and twenty, blowing with trumpets --

¹³ yea, it cometh to pass, as one `are' trumpeters and singers, to sound -- one voice -- to praise and to give thanks to Jehovah, and at the lifting up of the sound with trumpets, and with cymbals, and with instruments of song, and at giving praise to Jehovah, for good, for to the age `is' His kindness, that the house is filled with a cloud -- the house of Jehovah,

¹⁴ and the priests have not been able to stand to minister from the presence of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of God.

⁷ And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah to its place, into the oracle of the house, into the most holy place, under the wings of the cherubim;

⁸ and the cherubim stretched forth [their] wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its staves above.

⁹ And the staves were long, so that the ends of the staves were seen outside the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen without. And there they are to this day.

¹⁰ There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb, when Jehovah made [a covenant] with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

¹¹ And it came to pass when the priests were come out of the holy place (for all the priests that were present were hallowed without observing the courses;

¹² and the Levites the singers, all they of Asaph, of Heman, of Jeduthun, with their sons and their brethren, clad in byssus, with cymbals and lutes and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests sounding with trumpets),

¹³ -- it came to pass when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one voice to be heard in praising and thanking Jehovah; and when they lifted up their voice with trumpets, and cymbals, and instruments of music, and praised Jehovah: For he is good, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever; that then the house, the house of Jehovah, was filled with a cloud,

¹⁴ and the priests could not stand to do their service because of the cloud; for the glory of Jehovah had filled the house of God.

⁷ The priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to its place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

⁸ For the cherubim spread forth their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and the poles of it above.

⁹ The poles were so long that the ends of the poles were seen from the ark before the oracle; but they were not seen outside: and there it is to this day.

¹⁰ There was nothing in the ark save the two tables which Moses put [there] at Horeb, when Yahweh made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of Egypt.

¹¹ It happened, when the priests were come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves, and did not keep their divisions;

¹² also the Levites who were the singers, all of them, even Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and their brothers, arrayed in fine linen, with cymbals and psalteries and harps, stood at the east end of the altar, and with them one hundred twenty priests sounding with trumpets;)

¹⁴ so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of Yahweh filled the house of God.

¹ So all the work which Solomon did for the house of the Lord was complete. And Solomon took the holy things which David his father had given, the silver and the gold and all the vessels, and put them in the store-houses of the house of God.

² Then Solomon sent for all the responsible men of Israel, all the chiefs of the tribes and the heads of families of the children of Israel, to come to Jerusalem and take the ark of the Lord's agreement up out of the town of David, which is Zion.

³ And all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.

⁴ All the responsible men of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.

⁵ They took up the ark and the Tent of meeting and all the holy vessels which were in the Tent; all these the priests, the Levites, took up.

⁶ And King Solomon and all the men of Israel who had come together there with him, were before the ark, making offerings of sheep and oxen more than might be numbered.

⁷ And the priests took the ark of the Lord's agreement and put it in its place, in the inner room of the house, in the most holy place, under the wings of the winged ones.

⁸ For their wings were outstretched over the place where the ark was, covering the ark and its rods.

⁹ The rods were so long that their ends were seen from the holy place before the inmost room; but they were not seen from outside; and there they are to this day.

¹⁰ Nothing was in the ark but the two flat stones which Moses put there at Horeb, where the Lord made an agreement with the children of Israel when they came out of Egypt.

¹¹ Now when the priests had come out of the holy place, (for all the priests who were present had made themselves holy, not keeping to their divisions;

¹² And the Levites who made the music, all of them, Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and their sons and brothers, robed in fair linen, were in their places with their brass and corded instruments at the east side of the altar, and with them a hundred and twenty priests blowing horns;)

¹³ And when the players on horns, and those who made melody in song, with one voice were sounding the praise and glory of the Lord; with loud voices and with wind instruments, and brass and corded instruments of music, praising the Lord and saying, He is good; his mercy is unchanging for ever: then the house was full of the cloud of the glory of the Lord,

¹⁴ So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.
