1 Then H227 ADV said H559 VQQ3MS Solomon H8010 MMS , The LORD H3068 EDS hath said H559 VQQ3MS that he would dwell H7931 in the thick darkness H6205 .
2 But I H589 W-PPRO-1MS have built H1129 a house H1004 CMS of habitation H2073 for thee , and a place H4349 for thy dwelling H3427 forever H5769 .
3 And the king H4428 D-NMS turned H5437 his face H6440 CMP-3MS , and blessed H1288 W-VNY3MS the whole H3605 NMS congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 : and all H3605 NMS the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 stood H5975 .

5 Since H4480 PREP the day H3117 D-AMS that H834 RPRO I brought forth my people H5971 out of the land H776 M-NFS of Egypt H4714 EFS I chose H977 no H3808 NADV city H5892 among all H3605 M-CMS the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to build H1129 a house H1004 NMS in , that my name H8034 might be H1961 there H8033 ADV ; neither H3808 W-NADV chose H977 I any man H376 to be H1961 a ruler H5057 NMS over H5921 PREP my people H5971 Israel H3478 LMS :

7 Now it was H1961 W-VQY3MS in H5973 PREP the heart H3824 of David H1732 my father H1 CMS-1MS to build H1129 a house H1004 NMS for the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 LMS .
8 But the LORD H3068 EDS said H559 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP David H1732 my father H1 CMS-1MS , Forasmuch H834 RPRO as it was H1961 VQQ3MS in H5973 PREP thine heart H3824 to build H1129 a house H1004 NMS for my name H8034 , thou didst well H2895 in that H3588 CONJ it was H1961 VQQ3MS in H5973 PREP thine heart H3824 :

10 The LORD H3068 EDS therefore hath performed H6965 his word H1697 that H834 RPRO he hath spoken H1696 : for I am risen up H6965 in the room H8478 NMS of David H1732 my father H1 CMS-1MS , and am set H3427 on H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of Israel H3478 , as H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS promised H1696 VPQ3MS , and have built H1129 the house H1004 D-NMS for the name H8034 of the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 LMS .
11 And in it H8033 ADV have I put H7760 the ark H727 , wherein H834 RPRO is the covenant H1285 NFS of the LORD H3068 EDS , that H834 RPRO he made H3772 with H5973 PREP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 LMS .
12 And he stood H5975 before H6440 L-CMP the altar H4196 of the LORD H3068 EDS in the presence of H5048 all H3605 NMS the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 , and spread forth H6566 his hands H3709 :
13 For H3588 CONJ Solomon H8010 MMS had made H6213 VQQ3MS a brazen H5178 CFS scaffold H3595 , of five H2568 MFS cubits H520 long H753 , and five H2568 cubits H520 broad H7341 , and three H7969 MFS cubits H520 high H6967 , and had set H5414 it in the midst H8432 B-NMS of the court H5835 : and upon H5921 PREP-3MS it he stood H5975 W-VQY3MS , and kneeled down H1288 upon H5921 PREP-3MS his knees H1290 before H5048 all H3605 NMS the congregation H6951 of Israel H3478 , and spread forth H6566 his hands H3709 toward heaven H8064 D-NMP-3FS ,
14 And said H559 W-VQY3MS , O LORD H3068 EDS God H430 NAME-4MP of Israel H3478 , there is no H369 NPAR God H430 EDP like thee H3644 PREP-2MS in the heaven H8064 BD-NMP , nor in the earth H776 ; which keepest H8104 covenant H1285 D-NFS , and showest mercy H2617 unto thy servants H5650 , that walk H1980 before H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee with all H3605 B-CMS their hearts H3820 :
