King James Version
So
all the work that Solomon had
performed
for the house of the LORD was completed.
Then
Solomon brought in the items
his father David
had dedicated —
the silver, the gold, and all the furnishings—and
he placed
them
in
the treasuries
of the house of God.
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.
At
that
time
Solomon assembled in
Jerusalem
the elders of Israel —
all the tribal
heads and
family
leaders
of the Israelites—
to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from
Zion,
the City of David.
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
.
So
all the men of Israel came
together
to
the king at
the feast in the seventh month.
Wherefore
all the men of Israel assembled
themselves
unto
the king in
the feast which
was
in the seventh month.
When
all the elders of Israel had
arrived,
the Levites took up the ark ,
And
all the elders of Israel came;
and
the Levites took up the ark .
and they brought up the ark and the Tent
of Meeting
with
all its
sacred
furnishings.
The Levitical
priests carried
them
up.
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.
There,
before
the
ark,
King Solomon and the whole
congregation of Israel who
had
assembled with
him sacrificed so
many
sheep and oxen that
they
could not be counted
or
numbered.
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
.
Then
the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the LORD to
its
place in
the inner
sanctuary
of the temple
, the Most Holy Place, beneath
the wings of the cherubim .
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 :
For the cherubim spread their wings over the place of the ark and overshadowed
the ark and its
poles
.
For the cherubim spread forth
their wings over the place of the ark ,
and the cherubim
covered
the
ark and the
staves
thereof
above
.
The poles
of the ark extended
far
enough
that their
ends were
visible
from
in
front
of the inner
sanctuary,
but
not
from outside
the Holy
Place
; and
they are
there to
this day.
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.
There was nothing in the ark except
the two tablets
that
Moses had
placed
in
it
at Horeb, where
the LORD had
made a covenant with the Israelites
after
they had
come
out of Egypt.
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.
Now
all
the
priests
who
were
present
had
consecrated
themselves
regardless
of
their
divisions.
And when the priests came
out of the Holy Place,
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:
all
the Levitical
singers —
Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun, and
their sons and relatives—
stood on
the east side
of the altar, dressed
in
fine
linen
and playing
cymbals,
harps,
and lyres,
accompanied
by
120
priests sounding trumpets .
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 :)
The trumpeters and singers joined
together
to praise
and thank
the LORD with
one
voice.
They lifted up their voices,
accompanied
by
trumpets ,
cymbals ,
and musical
instruments, in
praise
to
the LORD :
“
For He is good; His loving
devotion
endures
forever.”
And
the
temple,
the house of
the
LORD,
was filled with a cloud
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;
so that the priests could not stand there
to minister because
of the cloud ;
for the glory of the LORD filled the house of God.
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.
