14Then the kingH4428 1turnedH5437H6440 aroundH5437 and 2blessedH1288 allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478, while allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478 was standingH5975. 15He saidH559, “3BlessedH1288 be the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, 4whoH834 spokeH1696 with His mouthH6310 to my fatherH1 DavidH1732, and fulfilledH4390 it with His handsH3027, sayingH559, 16‘5SinceH4480 the dayH3117 that I broughtH3318 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 from EgyptH4714, I did not chooseH977 a cityH5892 out of allH3605 the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 in which to buildH1129 a houseH1004 so that 6My nameH8034 would be thereH8033, but 7I choseH977 DavidH1732 to be overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.’ 178Now it was 9in the heartH3824 of my fatherH1 DavidH1732 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 18But the LordH3068 saidH559 to my fatherH1 DavidH1732, ‘BecauseH3282H834 it was 10in your heartH3824 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for My nameH8034, you didH2895 wellH2895 that it was 11in your heartH3824. 1912NeverthelessH7534 you shall not buildH1129 the houseH1004, but your sonH1121 who 13will be bornH3318H2504 to you, he will buildH1129 the houseH1004 for My nameH8034.’ 20Now the LordH3068 has fulfilledH6965 His wordH1697 whichH834 He spokeH1696; for 14I have risenH6965 inH8478 placeH8478 ofH8478 my fatherH1 DavidH1732 and I sitH3427 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478, justH3512 asH3512 the LordH3068 15promisedH1696, and I have builtH1129 the houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 21And thereH8033 I have setH7760 a placeH4725 for the arkH727, 16in whichH834 is the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068, whichH834 He madeH3772 with our fathersH1 when He broughtH3318 them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.”

22Then 17SolomonH8010 stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LordH3068 in the presenceH5048 of allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478, and he 18spreadH6566 outH6566 his handsH3709 toward heavenH8064. 23And he saidH559, “LordH3068, GodH430 of IsraelH3478, 19thereH369 isH369 noH369 GodH430 likeH3644 You in heavenH8064 aboveH4480H4605 or on earthH776 beneathH4480H8478, 20keepingH8104 the covenantH1285 and showing faithfulnessH2617 to Your servantsH5650 who walkH1980 beforeH6440 You with allH3605 their heartH3820, 24You whoH834 have keptH8104 with Your servantH5650, my fatherH1 DavidH1732, that whichH834 You 21promisedH1696 him; You have spokenH1696 with Your mouthH6310 and have fulfilledH4390 it with Your handH3027, as it is thisH2088 dayH3117.
