12At that timeH227 SolomonH8010 offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 to the LORDH3068 onH5921 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 he had builtH1129 in frontH6440 of the porticoH197. 13He observed the dailyH3117 requirementH1697 for offeringsH5927 according to the commandmentH4687 of MosesH4872 for SabbathsH7676, New MoonsH2320, and the threeH7969 H6471 annualH8141 appointed feastsH4150—the FeastH2282 of Unleavened BreadH4682,1 the FeastH2282 of WeeksH7620,2 and the FeastH2282 of TabernaclesH5521.3

14In keeping with the ordinancesH4941 of his fatherH1 DavidH1732, Solomon appointedH5975 the divisionsH4256 of the priestsH3548 overH5921 their serviceH5656, and the LevitesH3881 forH5921 their dutiesH4931 to offer praiseH1984 and to ministerH8334 beforeH5048 the priestsH3548 according to the dailyH3117 requirementH1697. He also appointed gatekeepersH7778 by their divisionsH4256 at each gateH8179, forH3588 thisH3651 had been the commandH4687 of DavidH1732, the manH376 of GodH430. 15They did notH3808 turn asideH5493 from the king’sH4428 commandH4687 regardingH5921 the priestsH3548 or the LevitesH3881 in anyH3605 matterH1697, including that of the treasuriesH214.

16Thus allH3605 the workH4399 of SolomonH8010 was carried outH3559, fromH5704 the dayH3117 the foundation was laidH4143 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 untilH5704 it was finishedH3615. So the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was completedH8003.
