9So 1he builtH1129 the houseH1004 and finishedH3615 it; and he coveredH5603 the houseH1004 with beamsH1356 and 2planksH7713 of cedarH730. 10He also builtH1129 the storiesH3330 againstH5921 the wholeH3605 houseH1004, each fiveH2568 3cubitsH520 highH6967; and they 4were fastenedH270 to the houseH1004 with timbersH6086 of cedarH730.

11Now the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to SolomonH8010 sayingH559, 12“Concerning thisH2088 houseH1004 whichH834 you are buildingH1129, 5ifH518 you will walkH1980 in My statutesH2708 and executeH6213 My ordinancesH4941 and keepH8104 allH3605 My commandmentsH4687 by walkingH1980 in them, then I will carryH6965 out My wordH1697 with you whichH834 I spokeH1696 to DavidH1732 your fatherH1. 136I will dwellH7931 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478, and 7will not forsakeH5800 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.”
