wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house, |
|
|
|

That the cities which Huram had restored to
Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there. |

As for all the people that were left of the
Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites,
which were not of Israel, |
|

in the land, whom the children of Israel consumed not, them did Solomon make to
pay tribute until this day. |
|

out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her: for he said,
My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places
are holy, whereunto the ark of the LORD hath come. |
|
|
|
| 2 Chronicles 8:12 |
|
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the
LORD on the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the porch, |
|
|
|
| 2 Chronicles 8:13 |
|
Even after a certain rate every day, offering
according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons,
and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened
bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles. |
|
|

| 2 Chronicles 8:14 |
|
And he appointed, according to the order of
David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites
to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every
day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David
the man of God commanded. |
|

So the house of the LORD was perfected. |

brought them to king Solomon. |
