1: ThenH0227 spokeH0559 Solomon,H8010 YahwehH3068 saidH0559 He would dwellH7931 in the dark cloud.H6205

2: And IH0589 have surely builtH1129 an houseH1004 exaltedH2073 and a placeH4349 for You to dwell inH3427 forever.H5769

3: And turned aroundH5437 the kingH4428 -H0853 his face,H6440 and blessedH1288 -H0853 the wholeH3605 assemblyH6951 of Israel,H3478 and while allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478 was standing.H5975

4: And he said,H0559 Blessed [be]H1288 YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel,H3478 [what]H0834 He spokeH1696 with His mouthH6310 toH0853 David,H1732 my fatherH0001 and with His handsH3027 who has fulfilledH4390 saying,H0559

5: SinceH4480 the dayH3117 thatH0834 I broughtH3318 -H0853 My peopleH5971 out of the landH0776 of EgyptH4714 noH3808 I have chosenH0977 cityH5892 from anyH3605 tribeH7626 of IsraelH3478 [in which] to buildH1129 a houseH1004 that might beH1961 My nameH8034 there-H8033 norH3808 did I chooseH0977 any manH0376 to beH1961 a rulerH5057 overH5921 My peopleH5971 Israel-H3478

6: and yet I have chosenH0977 Jerusalem,H3389 that may beH1961 My nameH8034 there-H8033 and I have chosenH0977 DavidH1732 to beH1961 overH5921 My peopleH5971 Israel.H3478

7: Now it wasH1961 inH5973 the heartH3824 of DavidH1732 my fatherH0001 to buildH1129 a templeH1004 for the nameH8034 of YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel.H3478

8: But saidH0559 YahwehH3068 toH0413 DavidH1732 my father,H0001 becauseH3282 WhereasH0834 it wasH1961 inH5973 your heartH3824 to buildH1129 a templeH1004 for My name,H8034 you did wellH2895 in thatH3588 it wasH1961 inH5973 your heart.H3824

9: NeverthelessH7535 youH0859 notH3808 shall buildH1129 the temple-H1004 butH3588 your sonH1121 who will comeH3318 from your body,H2504 heH1931 shall buildH1129 the templeH1004 for My name.H8034

10: So has fulfilledH6965 YahwehH3068 -H0853 His wordH1697 whichH0834 He spoke-H1696 and I have filledH6965 the positionH8478 of DavidH1732 my father,H0001 and sitH3427 onH5921 the throneH3678 of Israel,H3478 asH0834 promised,H1696 YahwehH3068 and I have builtH1129 the templeH1004 for the nameH8034 of YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel.H3478

11: And I have putH7760 thereH8033 -H0853 the ark,H0727 thereH0834 in which [is]H8033 the covenantH1285 of Yahweh,H3068 whichH0834 He madeH3772 withH5973 the sonsH1121 of Israel.H3478

12: And [Solomon] stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of YahwehH3068 in the presenceH5048 of allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of Israel,H3478 and spread outH6566 his hands.H3709

13: ForH3588 had madeH6213 SolomonH8010 a platform,H3595 bronzeH5178 and had set itH5414 in the midstH8432 of the court-H5835 fiveH2568 cubitsH0520 long,H0753 and fiveH2568 cubitsH0520 wide,H7341 and cubitsH0520 threeH7969 high,H6967 and he stood,H5975 on itH5921 and knelt downH1288 onH5921 his kneesH1290 beforeH5048 allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of Israel,H3478 and spread outH6566 his handsH3709 toward heaven,H8064

14: and he said,H0559 YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel,H3478 [there is] noH0369 like YouH3644 GodH0430 in heaven,H8064 or on earth-H0776 who keepH8104 [Your] covenant,H1285 and mercyH2617 with Your servants,H5650 who walkH1980 before YouH6440 with allH3605 their hearts-H3820

15: thatH0834 You have keptH8104 Your servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH0001 thatH0854 whatH0834 You promisedH1696 and You have both spokenH1696 with Your mouth,H6310 and with Your hand,H3027 fulfilled [it]H4390 as [it is] dayH3117 this.H2088

16: Therefore nowH6258 YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel,H3478 keepH8104 Your servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH0001 -H0853 whatH0834 You promisedH1696 saying,H0559 notH3808 shall fail to haveH3772 a manH0376 before MeH6440 sitH3427 onH5921 the throneH3678 of Israel-H3478 onlyH7535 ifH0518 take heedH8104 your sonsH1121 -H0853 to their wayH1870 that they walkH1980 in My law,H8451 asH0834 you have walkedH1980 before Me.H6440

17: NowH6258 YahwehH3068 GodH0430 of Israel,H3478 let come true,H0539 Your wordH1697 whichH0834 You have spokenH1696 to Your servantH5650 David.H1732

18: ButH3588 will indeedH0552 dwellH3427 GodH0430 withH0854 menH0120 onH5921 the earth?H0776 behold,H2009 heavenH8064 and the heavenH8064 of heavensH8064 cannotH3808 contain YouH3557 how much lessH0637 how much lessH3588 templeH1004 thisH2088 whichH0834 I have built!H1129

19: and yet regardH6437 untoH0413 the prayerH8605 of Your servant,H5650 andH0413 his supplication,H8467 YahwehH3068 my God,H0430 and listenH8085 toH0413 the cryH7440 andH0413 the prayerH8605 whichH0834 Your servantH5650 is prayingH6419 before You.H6440

20: That may beH1961 Your eyesH5869 openH6605 towardH0413 templeH1004 thisH2088 dayH3119 and night,H3915 towardH0413 the placeH4725 whereH0834 [You] saidH0559 [You would] putH7760 Your nameH8034 there-H8033 that You may listenH8085 untoH0413 the prayerH8605 whichH0834 praysH6419 Your servantH5650 towardH0413 placeH4725 this.H2088

21: And may You hearH8085 untoH0413 the supplicationsH8469 of Your servant,H5650 and of Your peopleH5971 Israel,H3478 whenH0834 they prayH6419 towardH0413 place-H4725 thisH2088 and YouH0859 hearH8085 place,H4725 Your dwellingH3427 from,H4480 heaven-H8064 and when You hear,H8085 and forgive.H5545

22: IfH0518 sinsH2398 anyoneH0376 against his neighbor,H7453 and is forcedH5375 an oath,H0422 to takeH0423 and comesH0935 [and takes an] oathH0423 beforeH6440 Your altarH4196 in temple-H1004 this.H2088

23: Then YouH0859 hearH8085 fromH4480 heaven,H8064 and act,H6213 and judgeH8199 -H0853 Your servants,H5650 bringing retribution onH7725 the wicked,H7563 by bringingH5414 his wayH1870 on his own head-H7218 and justifyingH6663 the righteous,H6662 by givingH5414 according to his righteousness.H6666

24: Or ifH0518 are defeatedH5062 Your peopleH5971 IsraelH3478 beforeH6440 an enemy,H0341 becauseH3588 they have sinnedH2398 and returnH7725 and confessH3034 -H0853 Your name,H8034 and prayH6419 and make supplicationH2603 before YouH6440 in temple-H1004 this.H2088

25: Then YouH0859 hearH8085 fromH4480 heaven,H8064 and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of Your peopleH5971 Israel,H3478 and bring them backH7725 toH0413 the landH0127 whichH0834 You gaveH5414 to themH1992 and their fathers.H0001

26: When are shut up,H6113 the heavensH8064 and noH3808 there isH1961 rain,H4306 becauseH3588 they have sinnedH2398 and when they prayH6419 towardH0413 place,H4725 thisH2088 and confessH3034 -H0853 Your name,H8034 from their sin,H2403 and turnH7725 becauseH3588 You afflict them.H6031

27: Then YouH0859 hearH8085 [in] heaven,H8064 and forgiveH5545 the sinH2403 of Your servants,H5650 and Your peopleH5971 Israel,H3478 thatH3588 You may teach themH3384 toH0413 the way,H1870 goodH2896 in whichH0834 they should walk-H1980 and sendH5414 rainH4306 onH5921 Your land,H0776 whichH0834 You have givenH5414 to Your peopleH5971 as an inheritance.H5159

28: FamineH7458 whenH3588 there isH1961 in the land,H0776 pestilence,H1698 orH3588 there beH1961 blight,H7711 or mildew,H3420 locusts,H0697 or grasshoppers-H2625 ifH3588 there beH1961 whenH3588 besiegeH6696 their enemiesH0341 in their land-H0776 the cities ofH8179 whateverH3605 plagueH5061 or whateverH3605 sickness [there is].H4245

29: WhateverH3605 prayerH8605 whateverH3605 supplicationH8467 soeverH0834 is [made]H1961 by anyoneH3605 man,H0120 or by allH3605 Your peopleH5971 Israel,H3478 whenH0834 knowsH3045 each oneH0376 his own burdenH5061 and his own grief,H4341 and spreads outH6566 his handsH3709 toH0413 temple,H1004 this.H2088

30: Then YouH0859 hearH8085 fromH4480 heavenH8064 place,H4349 Your dwellingH3427 and forgive,H5545 and giveH5414 to everyoneH0376 according to allH3605 his ways,H1870 whoseH0834 You know-H3045 -H0853 whose heartH3824 forH3588 YouH0859 aloneH0905 knowH3045 -H0853 the heartsH3824 of the sonsH1121 of men.H0120

31: ThatH4616 they may fear YouH3372 to walkH1980 in Your ways,H1870 as longH3605 as longH3117 asH0834 theyH1992 liveH2416 inH5921 live inH6440 the landH0127 whichH0834 You gaveH5414 to our fathers.H0001

32: MoreoverH1571 concerningH0413 a foreigner,H5237 whoH0834 notH3808 of Your peopleH5971 Israel,H3478 isH1931 but who comesH0935 from a countryH0776 farH7350 for the sakeH4616 of Your nameH8034 greatH1419 and Your hand,H3027 mightyH2389 and Your arm-H2220 outstretchedH5186 and when they comeH0935 and prayH6419 inH0413 temple-H1004 this.H2088

33: Then YouH0859 hearH8085 fromH4480 heaven,H8064 place,H4349 Your dwellingH3427 and doH6213 according to allH3605 for whichH0834 callsH7121 to YouH0413 the foreignerH5237 to the end thatH4616 may knowH3045 allH3605 peoplesH5971 of the earthH0776 -H0853 Your name,H8034 and fearH3372 YouH0853 as [do] Your peopleH5971 Israel,H3478 that they may knowH3045 thatH3588 by Your name.H8034 Is calledH7121 uponH5921 templeH1004 thisH2088 whichH0834 I have built.H1129

34: WhenH3588 go outH3318 Your peopleH5971 to battleH4421 againstH5921 their enemiesH0341 the wayH1870 whereverH0834 You send themH7971 and when they prayH6419 to YouH0413 towardH1870 toward cityH5892 thisH2063 whichH0834 You have chosen,H0977 and the templeH1004 whichH0834 I have builtH1129 for Your name-H8034

35: then hearH8085 fromH4480 heavenH8064 -H0853 their prayerH8605 andH0853 their supplication,H8467 and maintainH6213 their cause.H4941

36: WhenH3588 they sinH2398 forH3588 [there is] noH0369 oneH0120 whoH0834 notH3808 does sinH2398 and You become angryH0599 and deliver themH5414 toH6440 the enemy,H0341 andH7617 they take them captiveH7617 toH0413 a landH0776 farH7350 orH0176 near-H7138

37: and [yet] when they comeH7725 toH0413 themselvesH3824 in the landH0776 whereH0834 they were carried captive,H7617 thereH8033 and repentH7725 and make supplicationH2603 to YouH0413 in the landH0776 of their captivityH7633 saying,H0559 we have sinned,H2398 we have done wrong,H5753 and have committed wickedness-H7561

38: and [when] they returnH7725 to YouH0413 with allH3605 their heartH3820 and with allH3605 their soulH5315 in the land ofH0776 their captivityH7633 whereH0834 they have been carried captiveH7617 -H0853 and prayH6419 towardH1870 their land,H0776 whichH0834 You gaveH5414 to their fathers,H0001 and the cityH5892 whichH0834 You have chosen,H0977 and toward the templeH1004 whichH0834 I have builtH1129 for Your name,H8034

39: then hearH8085 fromH4480 heaven,H8064 place,H4349 Your dwellingH3427 -H0853 their prayerH8605 andH0853 their supplications,H8467 and maintainH6213 their cause,H4941 and forgiveH5545 Your peopleH5971 whoH0834 have sinnedH2398
