Revised Version 1895
1 Kings 8:6-13
6And the priestsH3548 broughtH935 in the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 unto itsH853 placeH4725, intoH413 the oracle of the houseH1004, to the mostH6944 holyH6944 placeH4725, evenH853 underH8478 the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742.
7For the cherubimH3742 spreadH6566 forth their wingsH3671 over the placeH4725 of the arkH727, and the cherubimH3742 covered the arkH727 and the staves thereof aboveH5921.
8And the staves were soH4480 longH5704 that the endsH7218 of the staves were seenH7200 from the holyH6944 placeH6944 beforeH6440 the oracle; but they were notH3808 seenH7200 withoutH3808: and there they are, unto this dayH3117.
9There was nothingH369 in the arkH727 save the twoH8147 tables of stoneH68 whichH834 MosesH4872 putH3318 there at HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they cameH3318 outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
10And it cameH1961 to passH1961, when the priestsH3548 were comeH1961 outH3318 of the holyH6944 placeH6944, that the cloudH6051 filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068,
11soH3808 that the priestsH3548 couldH3201 notH3808 standH5975 to ministerH8334 by reason of the cloudH6051: for the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 filledH4390 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
12Then spake SolomonH8010, The LORDH3068 hath saidH559 that he would dwellH7931 in the thickH6205 darknessH6205.
13I have surelyH1129 builtH1129 thee an houseH1004 of habitationH2073, a placeH4349 for thee to dwellH3427 in for everH5769.
