1 Kings 8:4-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 8
4
And they brought up the ark of the
Lord
, the tent of meeting, and all the holy utensils which were in the tent; the priests and the Levites brought them up.
5
And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, who were gathered together to him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and oxen that they could not be counted or numbered.
6
Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the
Lord
to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the Most Holy Place, under the wings of the cherubim.
7
For the cherubim spread
their
wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim made a covering over the ark and its carrying poles from above.
8
But the poles were so long that the ends of the poles could be seen from the holy place in front of the inner sanctuary, but they could not be seen outside; they are there to this day.
9
There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, where the
Lord
made
a covenant
with the sons of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
10
And it happened that when the priests came from the holy place, the cloud filled the house of the
Lord
,
11
so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the
Lord
filled the house of the
Lord
.
12
Then Solomon said,
'The
Lord
has said that He would dwell in the thick darkness.
13
I have truly built You a lofty house,
A place for Your dwelling forever.'
14
Then the king turned around and blessed all the assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.
King James Version
Chapter 8
4
And they brought up the ark of the
Lord
, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the Levites bring up.
5
And king Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel, that were assembled unto him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, that could not be told nor numbered for multitude.
6
And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the
Lord
unto his place, into the oracle of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubims.
7
For the cherubims spread forth their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubims covered the ark and the staves thereof above.
8
And they drew out the staves, that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy place before the oracle, and they were not seen without: and there they are unto this day.
9
There was nothing in the ark save the two tables of stone, which Moses put there at Horeb, when the
Lord
made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.
10
And it came to pass, when the priests were come out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the
Lord
,
11
So that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud: for the glory of the
Lord
had filled the house of the
Lord
.
12
Then spake Solomon, The
Lord
said that he would dwell in the thick darkness.
13
I have surely built thee an house to dwell in, a settled place for thee to abide in for ever.
14
And the king turned his face about, and blessed all the congregation of Israel: (and all the congregation of Israel stood;)

5
King Solomon and the entire congregation of Israel, who had gathered around him and were with him in front of the ark, were sacrificing sheep, goats, and cattle that could not be counted or numbered, because there were so many.
6
The priests brought the ark of the
Lord
’s covenant to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the temple, to the most holy place beneath the wings of the cherubim.

Lord
’s temple,

Lord
filled the temple.
12
Then Solomon said:
The
Lord
said that he would dwell in total darkness.
13
I have indeed built an exalted temple for you,
a place for your dwelling forever.

Nothing was in the Ark except the two stone tablets that Moses had placed in it at Mount Sinai, where the
Lord
made a covenant with the people of Israel when they left the land of Egypt.

When the priests came out of the Holy Place, a thick cloud filled the Temple of the
Lord
.
11
The priests could not continue their service because of the cloud, for the glorious presence of the
Lord
filled the Temple of the
Lord
.
12
Then Solomon prayed, 'O
Lord
, you have said that you would live in a thick cloud of darkness.
13
Now I have built a glorious Temple for you, a place where you can live forever! '
14
Then the king turned around to the entire community of Israel standing before him and gave this blessing:
