1:1And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and Jehovah his God was with him and magnified him exceedingly. Compare
1:2And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds and to the judges and to every leader of all Israel, the heads of the fathers' houses. Compare
1:3And Solomon and all the assembly with him went up to the high place that was in Gibeon, for the Tent of Meeting of God was there, which Moses the servant of Jehovah had made in the wilderness. Compare
1:4However David had brought up the Ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place that David had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem. Compare
1:5And the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before the tabernacle of Jehovah, and Solomon and the assembly inquired at it. Compare
1:6And Solomon went up there before Jehovah to the bronze altar, which was at the Tent of Meeting, and he offered upon it one thousand burnt offerings. Compare
1:7During that night God appeared to Solomon and said to him, Ask what I should give you. Compare
1:8And Solomon said to God, You have shown great lovingkindness to David my father and have made me king in his place. Compare
1:9And now, O Jehovah God, may Your promise to David my father be fulfilled, for You have made me king over a people as numerous as the dust of the earth. Compare
1:10Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of Yours? Compare
1:11Then God said to Solomon, Because this is on your heart and you have not asked for riches, wealth, or honor, nor for the life of those who hate you, nor have you even asked for long life, but have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself so that you may judge My people over whom I have made you king; Compare
1:12Wisdom and knowledge are granted to you; and riches and wealth and honor I will give you, such as no kings who were before you have had, nor any after you will have. Compare
1:13Then Solomon came to Jerusalemfrom the high place that was in Gibeon, from the Tent of Meeting; and he reigned over Israel. Compare
1:14And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen together; and he had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, which he stationed in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem. Compare
1:15And the king caused silver and gold to be as plentiful as stones in Jerusalem; and cedars, like the sycamores that are in the lowlands. Compare
1:16And the horses that Solomon had came from Egypt and from Kue; the king's traders bought them from Kue at a fixed price. Compare
1:17And they could import from Egypt a chariot for six hundred shekels of silver and a horse for one hundred fifty shekels, and thus they brought them out to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria by their own means. Compare
2:1Now Solomon purposed to build a house for the name of Jehovah and his royal palace. Compare
2:2And Solomon counted out seventy thousand men to bear burdens and eighty thousand men as stonecutters in the mountains and three thousand six hundred men to oversee them. Compare
2:3And Solomon sent word to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, As you did to David my father, in that you sent him cedars to build a house for him to dwell in, so do for me. Compare
2:4I am now about to build a house for the name of Jehovah my God to sanctify to Him, for the burning of fragrant incense before Him and the arranging of the rows of bread continually and the offering up of burnt offerings in the morning and in the evening, on Sabbaths and on new moons and on the appointed feasts of Jehovah our God, this being an ordinance for Israel forever. Compare
2:5And the house which I am building will be great; for greater is our God than all the gods. Compare
2:6But who is able to build Him a house? For the heavens and the heaven of heavens are not able to contain Him. And who am I, that I should build Him a house, except to burn incense before Him? Compare
2:7So now send me a man, skillful in working with gold and with silver and with bronze and with iron and with purple and crimson and blue cloth, and who knows how to make engravings, to be with the skillful men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father prepared. Compare
2:8Send me timber of cedar, cypress, and algum from Lebanon, for I know that your servants know how to cut the timber of Lebanon. And now my servants will be with your servants, Compare
2:9To prepare for me timber in abundance; for the house which I am building will be great and wonderful. Compare
2:10And now I will give to your servants, the hewers who cut timber, twenty thousand cors of crushed wheat and twenty thousand cors of barley and twenty thousand baths of wine and twenty thousand baths of oil. Compare
2:11And Huram the king of Tyre answered by letter, sending it to Solomon, saying, Because Jehovah loves His people, He has made you king over them. Compare
2:12Huram also said, Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, who has given King David a wise son endowed with discernment and understanding, who will build a house for Jehovah and his royal palace. Compare
2:13And now I have sent a skillful man, endowed with understanding, Huram-abi, Compare
2:14The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, whose father is a man of Tyre, who knows how to work in gold and in silver and in bronze and in iron, in stones and in wood, in purple, in blue cloth, and in fine linen and in crimson cloth and who knows how to make all kinds of engraving, and to fashion any design which is given to him, to work with your skillful men and the skillful men of my lord David your father. Compare
2:15And now let my lord send to his servants the wheat and the barley, the oil and the wine of which he spoke; Compare
2:16And we will cut whatever timber you need from Lebanon and bring it to you on rafts by sea to Joppa, and you can bring it up to Jerusalem. Compare
2:17And Solomon numbered all the men who were sojourners who were in the land of Israel after the census which David his father had made of them, and they found one hundred fifty-three thousand six hundred. Compare
2:18And he appointed seventy thousand of them as burden bearers and eighty thousand as stonecutters in the mountains, and three thousand six hundred overseers to make the people work. Compare
3:1And Solomon began to build the house of Jehovah in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah, where He had appeared to David his father, at the place that David prepared, on the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite. Compare
3:2And he began to build on the second day of the second month in the fourth year of his reign. Compare
3:3And these are the foundations which Solomon laid to build the house of God. The length in cubits, according to the former standard, was sixty cubits, and it was twenty cubits wide. Compare
3:4And the portico that was at the front was as long as the width of the house, twenty cubits; and its height was one hundred twenty cubits. And he overlaid it within with pure gold. Compare
3:5And the greater house he overlaid with cypress wood, and he overlaid it with fine gold and put palm trees and chains on it. Compare
3:6And he adorned the house with precious stones for beauty, and the gold was gold from Parvaim. Compare
3:7And he overlaid the house-the beams, the thresholds, and its walls and its doors-with gold; and he carved cherubim on the walls. Compare

3:12And the wing of the other cherub, of five cubits, touched the wall of the house, and its other wing, of five cubits, was attached to the wing of the first cherub. Compare
3:13The wings of these cherubim were spread out twenty cubits in length; and they stood on their feet, and their faces were toward the house. Compare
3:14And he made the veil of blue and purple and crimson cloth and fine linen, and he put cherubim upon it. Compare
3:15And at the front of the house he made two pillars, thirty-five cubits high; and the capital that was on the top of each was five cubits high. Compare

4:4It stood upon twelve oxen, three facing north and three facing west and three facing south and three facing east; and the sea was upon them, and all their hindquarters were within. Compare
4:5And it was a handbreadth thick; and its brim was like the work of a cup's brim, like the flower of a lily; it could hold three thousand baths. Compare
4:6And he made ten basins in which to wash, to rinse the things for the burnt offering, and he set five on the right and five on the left; but the sea was for the priests to wash in. Compare
4:7Then he made the ten golden lampstands according to the ordinance for them, and he put them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left. Compare
4:8And he made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right and five on the left; and he made one hundred golden bowls. Compare
4:9And he made the court of the priests and the great court and the doors of the court, and he overlaid their doors with bronze. Compare
4:10And he put the sea on the right side of the house, on the east side southward. Compare
4:11And Huram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls. Thus Huram finished doing the work that he was doing for King Solomon in the house of God: Compare
4:12The two pillars and the bowls and the two capitals that were at the top of the pillars and the two networks to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were at the top of the pillars; Compare

4:15And the one sea and the twelve oxen under it. Compare

4:17The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah. Compare
4:18And Solomon made all these vessels in great number, for the weight of bronze could not be ascertained. Compare

4:20And the lampstands and their lamps of pure gold to burn according to their ordinance before the innermost sanctuary; Compare
4:21And the flowers and the lamps and the tongs, of gold, of purest gold; Compare
