1 Kings 8:3-9

3And all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935, and the priestsH3548 took upH5375 the arkH727.

4And they broughtH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, even those did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bringH5927.

5And kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478, that were assembledH3259 to him, were with him beforeH6440 the arkH727, sacrificingH2076 sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, that could not be countedH5608 nor numberedH4487 for multitudeH7230.

6And the priestsH3548 broughtH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 to its placeH4725, into the inner sanctuaryH1687 of the houseH1004, to the mostH6944 holyH6944 place, even under the wingsH3671 of the cherubimH3742.

7For the cherubimH3742 spread forthH6566 their two wingsH3671 over the placeH4725 of the arkH727, and the cherubimH3742 coveredH5526 the arkH727 and its staffsH905 aboveH4605.

8And they drew outH748 the staffsH905, that the endsH7218 of the staffsH905 were seen outH7200 in the holyH6944 place beforeH6440 the inner sanctuaryH1687, and they were not seenH7200 outsideH2351: and there they are to this dayH3117.12

9There was nothing in the arkH727 exceptH7535 the twoH8147 tablesH3871 of stoneH68, which MosesH4872 putH3240 there at HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.3
