as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

1Ki 01:01 ¶ Now king <04428> David <01732> was old <02204>

(8804) and stricken <0935> (8804) in years <03117>; and they

covered <03680> (8762) him with clothes <0899>, but he gat no

heat <03179> (8799).

1Ki 01:02 Wherefore his servants <05650> said <0559> (8799)

unto him, Let there be sought <01245> (8762) for my lord <0113>

the king <04428> a young <05291> virgin <01330>: and let her

stand <05975> (8804) before <06440> the king <04428>, and let

her cherish <05532> (8802) him, and let her lie <07901> (8804)

in thy bosom <02436>, that my lord <0113> the king <04428> may

get heat <02552> (8804).

1Ki 01:03 So they sought <01245> (8762) for a fair <03303>

damsel <05291> throughout all the coasts <01366> of Israel

<03478>, and found <04672> (8799) Abishag <049> a Shunammite

<07767>, and brought <0935> (8686) her to the king <04428>.

1Ki 01:04 And the damsel <05291> was very <03966> fair <03303>,

and cherished <05532> (8802) the king <04428>, and ministered

<08334> (8762) to him: but the king <04428> knew <03045> (8804)

her not.

1Ki 01:05 ¶ Then Adonijah <0138> the son <01121> of Haggith

<02294> exalted <04984> (8693) himself, saying <0559> (8800), I

will be king <04427> (8799): and he prepared <06213> (8799) him

chariots <07393> and horsemen <06571>, and fifty <02572> men

<0376> to run <07323> (8801) before <06440> him.

1Ki 01:06 And his father <01> had not displeased <06087> (8804)

him at any time <03117> in saying <0559> (8800), Why hast thou

done so <06213> (8804)? and he also was a very <03966> goodly

<02896> <08389> man; and his mother bare <03205> (8804) him

after <0310> Absalom <053>.

1Ki 01:07 And he conferred <01697> with Joab <03097> the son

<01121> of Zeruiah <06870>, and with Abiathar <054> the priest

<03548>: and they following <0310> Adonijah <0138> helped

<05826> (8799) him.

1Ki 01:08 But Zadok <06659> the priest <03548>, and Benaiah

<01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada <03077>, and Nathan <05416>

the prophet <05030>, and Shimei <08096>, and Rei <07472>, and

the mighty men <01368> which belonged to David <01732>, were not

with Adonijah <0138>.

1Ki 01:09 And Adonijah <0138> slew <02076> (8799) sheep <06629>

and oxen <01241> and fat cattle <04806> by the stone <068> of

Zoheleth <02120>, which is by <0681> Enrogel <05883>, and called

<07121> (8799) all his brethren <0251> the king’s <04428> sons

<01121>, and all the men <0582> of Judah <03063> the king’s

<04428> servants <05650>:

1Ki 01:10 But Nathan <05416> the prophet <05030>, and Benaiah

<01141>, and the mighty men <01368>, and Solomon <08010> his

brother <0251>, he called <07121> (8804) not.

1Ki 01:11 ¶ Wherefore Nathan <05416> spake <0559> (8799) unto

Bathsheba <01339> the mother <0517> of Solomon <08010>, saying

<0559> (8800), Hast thou not heard <08085> (8804) that Adonijah

<0138> the son <01121> of Haggith <02294> doth reign <04427>

(8804), and David <01732> our lord <0113> knoweth <03045> (8804)

it not?

1Ki 01:12 Now therefore come <03212> (8798), let me, I pray

thee, give thee counsel <03289> (8799) <06098>, that thou mayest

save <04422> (8761) thine own life <05315>, and the life <05315>

of thy son <01121> Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 01:13 Go <03212> (8798) and get thee in <0935> (8798) unto

king <04428> David <01732>, and say <0559> (8804) unto him,

Didst not thou, my lord <0113>, O king <04428>, swear <07650>

(8738) unto thine handmaid <0519>, saying <0559> (8800),

Assuredly <03588> Solomon <08010> thy son <01121> shall reign

<04427> (8799) after <0310> me, and he shall sit <03427> (8799)

upon my throne <03678>? why then doth Adonijah <0138> reign

<04427> (8804)?

1Ki 01:14 Behold, while thou yet talkest <01696> (8764) there

with the king <04428>, I also will come in <0935> (8799) after

<0310> thee, and confirm <04390> (8765) thy words <01697>.

1Ki 01:15 And Bathsheba <01339> went in <0935> (8799) unto the

king <04428> into the chamber <02315>: and the king <04428> was

very <03966> old <02204> (8804); and Abishag <049> the

Shunammite <07767> ministered <08334> (8764) unto the king

<04428>.

1Ki 01:16 And Bathsheba <01339> bowed <06915> (8799), and did

obeisance <07812> (8691) unto the king <04428>. And the king

<04428> said <0559> (8799), What wouldest thou?

1Ki 01:17 And she said <0559> (8799) unto him, My lord <0113>,

thou swarest <07650> (8738) by the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>

unto thine handmaid <0519>, saying, Assuredly Solomon <08010>

thy son <01121> shall reign <04427> (8799) after <0310> me, and

he shall sit <03427> (8799) upon my throne <03678>.

1Ki 01:18 And now, behold, Adonijah <0138> reigneth <04427>

(8804); and now, my lord <0113> the king <04428>, thou knowest

<03045> (8804) it not:

1Ki 01:19 And he hath slain <02076> (8799) oxen <07794> and fat

cattle <04806> and sheep <06629> in abundance <07230>, and hath

called <07121> (8799) all the sons <01121> of the king <04428>,

and Abiathar <054> the priest <03548>, and Joab <03097> the

captain <08269> of the host <06635>: but Solomon <08010> thy

servant <05650> hath he not called <07121> (8804).

1Ki 01:20 And thou, my lord <0113>, O king <04428>, the eyes

<05869> of all Israel <03478> are upon thee, that thou shouldest

tell <05046> (8687) them who shall sit <03427> (8799) on the

throne <03678> of my lord <0113> the king <04428> after <0310>

him.

1Ki 01:21 Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord <0113>

the king <04428> shall sleep <07901> (8800) with his fathers

<01>, that I and my son <01121> Solomon <08010> shall be counted

offenders <02400>.

1Ki 01:22 And, lo, while she yet talked <01696> (8764) with the

king <04428>, Nathan <05416> the prophet <05030> also came in

<0935> (8804).

1Ki 01:23 And they told <05046> (8686) the king <04428>, saying

<0559> (8800), Behold Nathan <05416> the prophet <05030>. And

when he was come in <0935> (8799) before <06440> the king

<04428>, he bowed <07812> (8691) himself before the king <04428>

with his face <0639> to the ground <0776>.

1Ki 01:24 And Nathan <05416> said <0559> (8799), My lord <0113>,

O king <04428>, hast thou said <0559> (8804), Adonijah <0138>

shall reign <04427> (8799) after <0310> me, and he shall sit

<03427> (8799) upon my throne <03678>?

1Ki 01:25 For he is gone down <03381> (8804) this day <03117>,

and hath slain <02076> (8799) oxen <07794> and fat cattle

<04806> and sheep <06629> in abundance <07230>, and hath called

<07121> (8799) all the king’s <04428> sons <01121>, and the

captains <08269> of the host <06635>, and Abiathar <054> the

priest <03548>; and, behold, they eat <0398> (8802) and drink

<08354> (8802) before <06440> him, and say <0559> (8799), God

save <02421> (8799) king <04428> Adonijah <0138>.

1Ki 01:26 But me, even me thy servant <05650>, and Zadok

<06659> the priest <03548>, and Benaiah <01141> the son <01121>

of Jehoiada <03077>, and thy servant <05650> Solomon <08010>,

hath he not called <07121> (8804).

1Ki 01:27 Is this thing <01697> done <01961> (8738) by my lord

<0113> the king <04428>, and thou hast not shewed <03045> (8689)

it unto thy servant <05650>, who should sit <03427> (8799) on

the throne <03678> of my lord <0113> the king <04428> after

<0310> him?

1Ki 01:28 Then king <04428> David <01732> answered <06030>

(8799) and said <0559> (8799), Call <07121> (8798) me Bathsheba

<01339>. And she came <0935> (8799) into the king’s <04428>

presence <06440>, and stood <05975> (8799) before <06440> the

king <04428>.

1Ki 01:29 And the king <04428> sware <07650> (8735), and said

<0559> (8799), As the LORD <03068> liveth <02416>, that hath

redeemed <06299> (8804) my soul <05315> out of all distress

<06869>,

1Ki 01:30 Even as I sware <07650> (8738) unto thee by the LORD

<03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, saying <0559> (8800),

Assuredly Solomon <08010> thy son <01121> shall reign <04427>

(8799) after <0310> me, and he shall sit <03427> (8799) upon my

throne <03678> in my stead; even so will I certainly do <06213>

(8799) this day <03117>.

1Ki 01:31 Then Bathsheba <01339> bowed <06915> (8799) with her

face <0639> to the earth <0776>, and did reverence <07812>

(8691) to the king <04428>, and said <0559> (8799), Let my lord

<0113> king <04428> David <01732> live <02421> (8799) for ever

<05769>.

1Ki 01:32 ¶ And king <04428> David <01732> said <0559> (8799),

Call <07121> (8798) me Zadok <06659> the priest <03548>, and

Nathan <05416> the prophet <05030>, and Benaiah <01141> the son

<01121> of Jehoiada <03077>. And they came <0935> (8799) before

<06440> the king <04428>.

1Ki 01:33 The king <04428> also said <0559> (8799) unto them,

Take <03947> (8798) with you the servants <05650> of your lord

<0113>, and cause Solomon <08010> my son <01121> to ride <07392>

(8689) upon mine own mule <06506>, and bring him down <03381>

(8689) to Gihon <01521>:

1Ki 01:34 And let Zadok <06659> the priest <03548> and Nathan

<05416> the prophet <05030> anoint <04886> (8804) him there king

<04428> over Israel <03478>: and blow <08628> (8804) ye with the

trumpet <07782>, and say <0559> (8804), God save <02421> (8799)

king <04428> Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 01:35 Then ye shall come up <05927> (8804) after <0310> him,

that he may come <0935> (8804) and sit <03427> (8804) upon my

throne <03678>; for he shall be king <04427> (8799) in my stead:

and I have appointed <06680> (8765) him to be ruler <05057> over

Israel <03478> and over Judah <03063>.

1Ki 01:36 And Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada

<03077> answered <06030> (8799) the king <04428>, and said

<0559> (8799), Amen <0543>: the LORD <03068> God <0430> of my

lord <0113> the king <04428> say <0559> (8799) so too.

1Ki 01:37 As the LORD <03068> hath been with my lord <0113> the

king <04428>, even so be he with Solomon <08010>, and make

<01431> <00> his throne <03678> greater <01431> (8762) than the

throne <03678> of my lord <0113> king <04428> David <01732>.

1Ki 01:38 So Zadok <06659> the priest <03548>, and Nathan

<05416> the prophet <05030>, and Benaiah <01141> the son <01121>

of Jehoiada <03077>, and the Cherethites <03774>, and the

Pelethites <06432>, went down <03381> (8799), and caused Solomon

<08010> to ride <07392> (8686) upon king <04428> David’s <01732>

mule <06506>, and brought <03212> (8686) him to Gihon <01521>.

1Ki 01:39 And Zadok <06659> the priest <03548> took <03947>

(8799) an horn <07161> of oil <08081> out of the tabernacle

<0168>, and anointed <04886> (8799) Solomon <08010>. And they

blew <08628> (8799) the trumpet <07782>; and all the people

<05971> said <0559> (8799), God save <02421> (8799) king <04428>

Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 01:40 And all the people <05971> came up <05927> (8799)

after <0310> him, and the people <05971> piped <02490> (8764)

with pipes <02485>, and rejoiced <08056> with great <01419> joy

<08057>, so that the earth <0776> rent <01234> (8735) with the

sound <06963> of them.

1Ki 01:41 ¶ And Adonijah <0138> and all the guests <07121>

(8803) that were with him heard <08085> (8799) it as they had

made an end <03615> (8765) of eating <0398> (8800). And when

Joab <03097> heard <08085> (8799) the sound <06963> of the

trumpet <07782>, he said <0559> (8799), Wherefore is this noise

<06963> of the city <07151> being in an uproar <01993> (8802)?

1Ki 01:42 And while he yet spake <01696> (8764), behold,

Jonathan <03129> the son <01121> of Abiathar <054> the priest

<03548> came <0935> (8804): and Adonijah <0138> said <0559>

(8799) unto him, Come in <0935> (8798); for thou art a valiant

<02428> man <0376> (8676) <0381>, and bringest <01319> <00> good

<02896> tidings <01319> (8762).

1Ki 01:43 And Jonathan <03129> answered <06030> (8799) and said

<0559> (8799) to Adonijah <0138>, Verily <061> our lord <0113>

king <04428> David <01732> hath made Solomon <08010> king

<04427> (8689).

1Ki 01:44 And the king <04428> hath sent <07971> (8799) with

him Zadok <06659> the priest <03548>, and Nathan <05416> the

prophet <05030>, and Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada

<03077>, and the Cherethites <03774>, and the Pelethites <06432>,

and they have caused him to ride <07392> (8686) upon the king’s

<04428> mule <06506>:

1Ki 01:45 And Zadok <06659> the priest <03548> and Nathan

<05416> the prophet <05030> have anointed <04886> (8799) him

king <04428> in Gihon <01521>: and they are come up <05927>

(8799) from thence rejoicing <08056>, so that the city <07151>

rang again <01949> (8735). This is the noise <06963> that ye

have heard <08085> (8804).

1Ki 01:46 And also Solomon <08010> sitteth <03427> (8804) on

the throne <03678> of the kingdom <04410>.

1Ki 01:47 And moreover the king’s <04428> servants <05650> came

<0935> (8804) to bless <01288> (8763) our lord <0113> king

<04428> David <01732>, saying <0559> (8800), God <0430> make the

name <08034> of Solomon <08010> better <03190> (8686) than thy

name <08034>, and make <01431> <00> his throne <03678> greater

<01431> (8762) than thy throne <03678>. And the king <04428>

bowed <07812> (8691) himself upon the bed <04904>.

1Ki 01:48 And also thus said <0559> (8804) the king <04428>,

Blessed <01288> (8803) be the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel

<03478>, which hath given <05414> (8804) one to sit <03427>

(8802) on my throne <03678> this day <03117>, mine eyes <05869>

even seeing <07200> (8802) it.

1Ki 01:49 And all the guests <07121> (8803) that were with

Adonijah <0138> were afraid <02729> (8799), and rose up <06965>

(8799), and went <03212> (8799) every man <0376> his way <01870>.

1Ki 01:50 And Adonijah <0138> feared <03372> (8804) because

<06440> of Solomon <08010>, and arose <06965> (8799), and went

<03212> (8799), and caught hold <02388> (8686) on the horns

<07161> of the altar <04196>.

1Ki 01:51 And it was told <05046> (8714) Solomon <08010>,

saying <0559> (8800), Behold, Adonijah <0138> feareth <03372>

(8804) king <04428> Solomon <08010>: for, lo, he hath caught

hold <0270> (8804) on the horns <07161> of the altar <04196>,

saying <0559> (8800), Let king <04428> Solomon <08010> swear

<07650> (8735) unto me to day <03117> that he will not slay

<04191> (8686) his servant <05650> with the sword <02719>.

1Ki 01:52 And Solomon <08010> said <0559> (8799), If he will

shew himself a worthy <02428> man <01121>, there shall not an

hair <08185> of him fall <05307> (8799) to the earth <0776>: but

if wickedness <07451> shall be found <04672> (8735) in him, he

shall die <04191> (8804).

1Ki 01:53 So king <04428> Solomon <08010> sent <07971> (8799),

and they brought him down <03381> (8686) from the altar <04196>.

And he came <0935> (8799) and bowed <07812> (8691) himself to

king <04428> Solomon <08010>: and Solomon <08010> said <0559>

(8799) unto him, Go <03212> (8798) to thine house <01004>.

1Ki 02:01 ¶ Now the days <03117> of David <01732> drew nigh

<07126> (8799) that he should die <04191> (8800); and he charged

<06680> (8762) Solomon <08010> his son <01121>, saying <0559>

(8800),

1Ki 02:02 I go <01980> (8802) the way <01870> of all the earth

<0776>: be thou strong <02388> (8804) therefore, and shew

thyself a man <0376>;

1Ki 02:03 And keep <08104> (8804) the charge <04931> of the

LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, to walk <03212> (8800) in his ways

<01870>, to keep <08104> (8800) his statutes <02708>, and his

commandments <04687>, and his judgments <04941>, and his

testimonies <05715>, as it is written <03789> (8803) in the law

<08451> of Moses <04872>, that thou mayest prosper <07919>

(8686) in all that thou doest <06213> (8799), and whithersoever

thou turnest <06437> (8799) thyself:

1Ki 02:04 That the LORD <03068> may continue <06965> (8686) his

word <01697> which he spake <01696> (8765) concerning me, saying

<0559> (8800), If thy children <01121> take heed <08104> (8799)

to their way <01870>, to walk <03212> (8800) before <06440> me

in truth <0571> with all their heart <03824> and with all their

soul <05315>, there shall not fail <03772> (8735) thee (said

<0559> (8800) he) a man <0376> on the throne <03678> of Israel

<03478>.

1Ki 02:05 Moreover thou knowest <03045> (8804) also what Joab

<03097> the son <01121> of Zeruiah <06870> did <06213> (8804) to

me, and what he did <06213> (8804) to the two <08147> captains

<08269> of the hosts <06635> of Israel <03478>, unto Abner <074>

the son <01121> of Ner <05369>, and unto Amasa <06021> the son

<01121> of Jether <03500>, whom he slew <02026> (8799), and shed

<07760> (8799) the blood <01818> of war <04421> in peace <07965>,

and put <05414> (8799) the blood <01818> of war <04421> upon

his girdle <02290> that was about his loins <04975>, and in his

shoes <05275> that were on his feet <07272>.

1Ki 02:06 Do <06213> (8804) therefore according to thy wisdom

<02451>, and let not his hoar head <07872> go down <03381>

(8686) to the grave <07585> in peace <07965>.

1Ki 02:07 But shew <06213> (8799) kindness <02617> unto the

sons <01121> of Barzillai <01271> the Gileadite <01569>, and let

them be of those that eat <0398> (8802) at thy table <07979>:

for so they came <07126> (8804) to me when I fled <01272> (8800)

because <06440> of Absalom <053> thy brother <0251>.

1Ki 02:08 And, behold, thou hast with thee Shimei <08096> the

son <01121> of Gera <01617>, a Benjamite <01145> of Bahurim

<0980>, which cursed <07043> (8765) me with a grievous <04834>

(8737) curse <07045> in the day <03117> when I went <03212>

(8800) to Mahanaim <04266>: but he came down <03381> (8804) to

meet <07125> (8800) me at Jordan <03383>, and I sware <07650>

(8735) to him by the LORD <03068>, saying <0559> (8800), I will

not put thee to death <04191> (8686) with the sword <02719>.

1Ki 02:09 Now therefore hold him not guiltless <05352> (8762):

for thou art a wise <02450> man <0376>, and knowest <03045>

(8804) what thou oughtest to do <06213> (8799) unto him; but his

hoar head <07872> bring thou down <03381> (8689) to the grave

<07585> with blood <01818>.

1Ki 02:10 So David <01732> slept <07901> (8799) with his

fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in the city <05892>

of David <01732>.

1Ki 02:11 And the days <03117> that David <01732> reigned

<04427> (8804) over Israel <03478> were forty <0705> years

<08141>: seven <07651> years <08141> reigned <04427> (8804) he

in Hebron <02275>, and thirty <07970> and three <07969> years

<08141> reigned <04427> (8804) he in Jerusalem <03389>.

1Ki 02:12 ¶ Then sat <03427> (8804) Solomon <08010> upon the

throne <03678> of David <01732> his father <01>; and his kingdom

<04438> was established <03559> (8735) greatly <03966>.

1Ki 02:13 And Adonijah <0138> the son <01121> of Haggith

<02294> came <0935> (8799) to Bathsheba <01339> the mother

<0517> of Solomon <08010>. And she said <0559> (8799), Comest

<0935> (8800) thou peaceably <07965>? And he said <0559> (8799),

Peaceably <07965>.

1Ki 02:14 He said <0559> (8799) moreover, I have somewhat to

say <01697> unto thee. And she said <0559> (8799), Say on

<01696> (8761).

1Ki 02:15 And he said <0559> (8799), Thou knowest <03045>

(8804) that the kingdom <04410> was mine, and that all Israel

<03478> set <07760> (8804) their faces <06440> on me, that I

should reign <04427> (8800): howbeit the kingdom <04410> is

turned about <05437> (8735), and is become my brother’s <0251>:

for it was his from the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 02:16 And now I ask <07592> (8802) one <0259> petition

<07596> of thee, deny <07725> (8686) me <06440> not. And she

said <0559> (8799) unto him, Say on <01696> (8761).

1Ki 02:17 And he said <0559> (8799), Speak <0559> (8798), I

pray thee, unto Solomon <08010> the king <04428>, (for he will

not say <07725> <00> thee <06440> nay <07725> (8686),) that he

give <05414> (8799) me Abishag <049> the Shunammite <07767> to

wife <0802>.

1Ki 02:18 And Bathsheba <01339> said <0559> (8799), Well

<02896>; I will speak <01696> (8762) for thee unto the king

<04428>.

1Ki 02:19 Bathsheba <01339> therefore went <0935> (8799) unto

king <04428> Solomon <08010>, to speak <01696> (8763) unto him

for Adonijah <0138>. And the king <04428> rose up <06965> (8799)

to meet <07125> (8800) her, and bowed <07812> (8691) himself

unto her, and sat down <03427> (8799) on his throne <03678>, and

caused a seat <03678> to be set <07760> (8799) for the king’s

<04428> mother <0517>; and she sat <03427> (8799) on his right

hand <03225>.

1Ki 02:20 Then she said <0559> (8799), I desire <07592> (8802)

one <0259> small <06996> petition <07596> of thee; I pray thee,

say <07725> <00> me <06440> not nay <07725> (8686). And the king

<04428> said <0559> (8799) unto her, Ask on <07592> (8798), my

mother <0517>: for I will not say <07725> <00> thee <06440> nay

<07725> (8686).

1Ki 02:21 And she said <0559> (8799), Let Abishag <049> the

Shunammite <07767> be given <05414> (8714) to Adonijah <0138>

thy brother <0251> to wife <0802>.

1Ki 02:22 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> answered <06030>

(8799) and said <0559> (8799) unto his mother <0517>, And why

dost thou ask <07592> (8802) Abishag <049> the Shunammite

<07767> for Adonijah <0138>? ask <07592> (8798) for him the

kingdom <04410> also; for he is mine elder <01419> brother

<0251>; even for him, and for Abiathar <054> the priest <03548>,

and for Joab <03097> the son <01121> of Zeruiah <06870>.

1Ki 02:23 Then king <04428> Solomon <08010> sware <07650>

(8735) by the LORD <03068>, saying <0559> (8800), God <0430> do

<06213> (8799) so to me, and more also <03254> (8686), if

Adonijah <0138> have not spoken <01696> (8765) this word <01697>

against his own life <05315>.

1Ki 02:24 Now therefore, as the LORD <03068> liveth <02416>,

which hath established <03559> (8689) me, and set <03427> (8686)

me on the throne <03678> of David <01732> my father <01>, and

who hath made <06213> (8804) me an house <01004>, as he promised

<01696> (8765), Adonijah <0138> shall be put to death <04191>

(8714) this day <03117>.

1Ki 02:25 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> sent <07971> (8799)

by the hand <03027> of Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of

Jehoiada <03077>; and he fell <06293> (8799) upon him that he

died <04191> (8799).

1Ki 02:26 ¶ And unto Abiathar <054> the priest <03548> said

<0559> (8804) the king <04428>, Get <03212> (8798) thee to

Anathoth <06068>, unto thine own fields <07704>; for thou art

worthy <0376> of death <04194>: but I will not at this time

<03117> put thee to death <04191> (8686), because thou barest

<05375> (8804) the ark <0727> of the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>

before <06440> David <01732> my father <01>, and because thou

hast been afflicted <06031> (8694) in all wherein my father <01>

was afflicted <06031> (8694).

1Ki 02:27 So Solomon <08010> thrust out <01644> (8762) Abiathar

<054> from being priest <03548> unto the LORD <03068>; that he

might fulfil <04390> (8763) the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>,

which he spake <01696> (8765) concerning the house <01004> of

Eli <05941> in Shiloh <07887>.

1Ki 02:28 Then tidings <08052> came <0935> (8804) to Joab

<03097>: for Joab <03097> had turned <05186> (8804) after <0310>

Adonijah <0138>, though he turned <05186> (8804) not after

<0310> Absalom <053>. And Joab <03097> fled <05127> (8799) unto

the tabernacle <0168> of the LORD <03068>, and caught hold

<02388> (8686) on the horns <07161> of the altar <04196>.

1Ki 02:29 And it was told <05046> (8714) king <04428> Solomon

<08010> that Joab <03097> was fled <05127> (8804) unto the

tabernacle <0168> of the LORD <03068>; and, behold, he is by

<0681> the altar <04196>. Then Solomon <08010> sent <07971>

(8799) Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada <03077>,

saying <0559> (8800), Go <03212> (8798), fall <06293> (8798)

upon him.

1Ki 02:30 And Benaiah <01141> came <0935> (8799) to the

tabernacle <0168> of the LORD <03068>, and said <0559> (8799)

unto him, Thus saith <0559> (8804) the king <04428>, Come forth

<03318> (8798). And he said <0559> (8799), Nay; but I will die

<04191> (8799) here. And Benaiah <01141> brought <07725> <00>

the king <04428> word <01697> again <07725> (8686), saying

<0559> (8800), Thus said <01696> (8765) Joab <03097>, and thus

he answered <06030> (8804) me.

1Ki 02:31 And the king <04428> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Do

<06213> (8798) as he hath said <01696> (8765), and fall <06293>

(8798) upon him, and bury <06912> (8804) him; that thou mayest

take away <05493> (8689) the innocent <02600> blood <01818>,

which Joab <03097> shed <08210> (8804), from me, and from the

house <01004> of my father <01>.

1Ki 02:32 And the LORD <03068> shall return <07725> (8689) his

blood <01818> upon his own head <07218>, who fell <06293> (8804)

upon two <08147> men <0582> more righteous <06662> and better

<02896> than he, and slew <02026> (8799) them with the sword

<02719>, my father <01> David <01732> not knowing <03045> (8804)

thereof, to wit, Abner <074> the son <01121> of Ner <05369>,

captain <08269> of the host <06635> of Israel <03478>, and Amasa

<06021> the son <01121> of Jether <03500>, captain <08269> of

the host <06635> of Judah <03063>.

1Ki 02:33 Their blood <01818> shall therefore return <07725>

(8804) upon the head <07218> of Joab <03097>, and upon the head

<07218> of his seed <02233> for ever <05769>: but upon David

<01732>, and upon his seed <02233>, and upon his house <01004>,

and upon his throne <03678>, shall there be peace <07965> for

<05704> ever <05769> from the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 02:34 So Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada

<03077> went up <05927> (8799), and fell <06293> (8799) upon him,

and slew <04191> (8686) him: and he was buried <06912> (8735)

in his own house <01004> in the wilderness <04057>.

1Ki 02:35 ¶ And the king <04428> put <05414> (8799) Benaiah

<01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada <03077> in his room over the

host <06635>: and Zadok <06659> the priest <03548> did the king

<04428> put <05414> (8804) in the room of Abiathar <054>.

1Ki 02:36 And the king <04428> sent <07971> (8799) and called

<07121> (8799) for Shimei <08096>, and said <0559> (8799) unto

him, Build <01129> (8798) thee an house <01004> in Jerusalem

<03389>, and dwell <03427> (8804) there, and go not forth

<03318> (8799) thence any whither <0575>.

1Ki 02:37 For it shall be, that on the day <03117> thou goest

out <03318> (8800), and passest over <05674> (8804) the brook

<05158> Kidron <06939>, thou shalt know <03045> (8799) for

certain <03045> (8800) that thou shalt surely <04191> (8800) die

<04191> (8799): thy blood <01818> shall be upon thine own head

<07218>.

1Ki 02:38 And Shimei <08096> said <0559> (8799) unto the king

<04428>, The saying <01697> is good <02896>: as my lord <0113>

the king <04428> hath said <01696> (8765), so will thy servant

<05650> do <06213> (8799). And Shimei <08096> dwelt <03427>

(8799) in Jerusalem <03389> many <07227> days <03117>.

1Ki 02:39 And it came to pass at the end <07093> of three

<07969> years <08141>, that two <08147> of the servants <05650>

of Shimei <08096> ran away <01272> (8799) unto Achish <0397> son

<01121> of Maachah <04601> king <04428> of Gath <01661>. And

they told <05046> (8686) Shimei <08096>, saying <0559> (8800),

Behold, thy servants <05650> be in Gath <01661>.

1Ki 02:40 And Shimei <08096> arose <06965> (8799), and saddled

<02280> (8799) his ass <02543>, and went <03212> (8799) to Gath

<01661> to Achish <0397> to seek <01245> (8763) his servants

<05650>: and Shimei <08096> went <03212> (8799), and brought

<0935> (8686) his servants <05650> from Gath <01661>.

1Ki 02:41 And it was told <05046> (8714) Solomon <08010> that

Shimei <08096> had gone <01980> (8804) from Jerusalem <03389> to

Gath <01661>, and was come again <07725> (8799).

1Ki 02:42 And the king <04428> sent <07971> (8799) and called

<07121> (8799) for Shimei <08096>, and said <0559> (8799) unto

him, Did I not make thee to swear <07650> (8689) by the LORD

<03068>, and protested <05749> (8686) unto thee, saying <0559>

(8800), Know <03045> (8799) for a certain <03045> (8800), on the

day <03117> thou goest out <03318> (8800), and walkest <01980>

(8804) abroad any whither <0575>, that thou shalt surely <04191>

(8800) die <04191> (8799)? and thou saidst <0559> (8799) unto me,

The word <01697> that I have heard <08085> (8804) is good

<02896>.

1Ki 02:43 Why then hast thou not kept <08104> (8804) the oath

<07621> of the LORD <03068>, and the commandment <04687> that I

have charged <06680> (8765) thee with?

1Ki 02:44 The king <04428> said <0559> (8799) moreover to

Shimei <08096>, Thou knowest <03045> (8804) all the wickedness

<07451> which thine heart <03824> is privy to <03045> (8804),

that thou didst <06213> (8804) to David <01732> my father <01>:

therefore the LORD <03068> shall return <07725> (8689) thy

wickedness <07451> upon thine own head <07218>;

1Ki 02:45 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> shall be blessed

<01288> (8803), and the throne <03678> of David <01732> shall be

established <03559> (8737) before <06440> the LORD <03068> for

<05704> ever <05769>.

1Ki 02:46 So the king <04428> commanded <06680> (8762) Benaiah

<01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada <03077>; which went out

<03318> (8799), and fell <06293> (8799) upon him, that he died

<04191> (8799). And the kingdom <04467> was established <03559>

(8738) in the hand <03027> of Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 03:01 ¶ And Solomon <08010> made affinity <02859> (8691)

with Pharaoh <06547> king <04428> of Egypt <04714>, and took

<03947> (8799) Pharaoh’s <06547> daughter <01323>, and brought

<0935> (8686) her into the city <05892> of David <01732>, until

he had made an end <03615> (8763) of building <01129> (8800) his

own house <01004>, and the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>,

and the wall <02346> of Jerusalem <03389> round about <05439>.

1Ki 03:02 Only the people <05971> sacrificed <02076> (8764) in

high places <01116>, because there was no house <01004> built

<01129> (8738) unto the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>, until

those days <03117>.

1Ki 03:03 And Solomon <08010> loved <0157> (8799) the LORD

<03068>, walking <03212> (8800) in the statutes <02708> of David

<01732> his father <01>: only he sacrificed <02076> (8764) and

burnt incense <06999> (8688) in high places <01116>.

1Ki 03:04 And the king <04428> went <03212> (8799) to Gibeon

<01391> to sacrifice <02076> (8800) there; for that <01931> was

the great <01419> high place <01116>: a thousand <0505> burnt

offerings <05930> did Solomon <08010> offer <05927> (8686) upon

that altar <04196>.

1Ki 03:05 ¶ In Gibeon <01391> the LORD <03068> appeared <07200>

(8738) to Solomon <08010> in a dream <02472> by night <03915>:

and God <0430> said <0559> (8799), Ask <07592> (8798) what I

shall give <05414> (8799) thee.

1Ki 03:06 And Solomon <08010> said <0559> (8799), Thou hast

shewed <06213> (8804) unto thy servant <05650> David <01732> my

father <01> great <01419> mercy <02617>, according as he walked

<01980> (8804) before <06440> thee in truth <0571>, and in

righteousness <06666>, and in uprightness <03483> of heart

<03824> with thee; and thou hast kept <08104> (8799) for him

this great <01419> kindness <02617>, that thou hast given

<05414> (8799) him a son <01121> to sit <03427> (8802) on his

throne <03678>, as it is this day <03117>.

1Ki 03:07 And now, O LORD <03068> my God <0430>, thou hast made

thy servant <05650> king <04427> (8689) instead of David <01732>

my father <01>: and I am but a little <06996> child <05288>: I

know <03045> (8799) not how to go out <03318> (8800) or come in

<0935> (8800).

1Ki 03:08 And thy servant <05650> is in the midst <08432> of

thy people <05971> which thou hast chosen <0977> (8804), a great

<07227> people <05971>, that cannot be numbered <04487> (8735)

nor counted <05608> (8735) for multitude <07230>.

1Ki 03:09 Give <05414> (8804) therefore thy servant <05650> an

understanding <08085> (8802) heart <03820> to judge <08199>

(8800) thy people <05971>, that I may discern <0995> (8687)

between good <02896> and bad <07451>: for who is able <03201>

(8799) to judge <08199> (8800) this thy so great <03515> a

people <05971>?

1Ki 03:10 And the speech <01697> pleased <03190> (8799) <05869>

the Lord <0136>, that Solomon <08010> had asked <07592> (8804)

this thing <01697>.

1Ki 03:11 And God <0430> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Because

thou hast asked <07592> (8804) this thing <01697>, and hast not

asked <07592> (8804) for thyself long <07227> life <03117>;

neither hast asked <07592> (8804) riches <06239> for thyself,

nor hast asked <07592> (8804) the life <05315> of thine enemies

<0341> (8802); but hast asked <07592> (8804) for thyself

understanding <0995> (8687) to discern <08085> (8800) judgment

<04941>;

1Ki 03:12 Behold, I have done <06213> (8804) according to thy

words <01697>: lo, I have given <05414> (8804) thee a wise

<02450> and an understanding <0995> (8737) heart <03820>; so

that there was none like thee before <06440> thee, neither after

<0310> thee shall any arise <06965> (8799) like unto thee.

1Ki 03:13 And I have also given <05414> (8804) thee that which

thou hast not asked <07592> (8804), both riches <06239>, and

honour <03519>: so that there shall not be any <0376> among the

kings <04428> like unto thee all thy days <03117>.

1Ki 03:14 And if thou wilt walk <03212> (8799) in my ways

<01870>, to keep <08104> (8800) my statutes <02706> and my

commandments <04687>, as thy father <01> David <01732> did walk

<01980> (8804), then I will lengthen <0748> (8689) thy days

<03117>.

1Ki 03:15 And Solomon <08010> awoke <03364> (8799); and, behold,

it was a dream <02472>. And he came <0935> (8799) to Jerusalem

<03389>, and stood <05975> (8799) before <06440> the ark <0727>

of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068>, and offered up

<05927> (8686) burnt offerings <05930>, and offered <06213>

(8799) peace offerings <08002>, and made <06213> (8799) a feast

<04960> to all his servants <05650>.

1Ki 03:16 ¶ Then came <0935> (8799) there two <08147> women

<0802>, that were harlots <02181> (8802), unto the king <04428>,

and stood <05975> (8799) before <06440> him.

1Ki 03:17 And the one <0259> woman <0802> said <0559> (8799), O

<0994> my lord <0113>, I and this woman <0802> dwell <03427>

(8802) in one <0259> house <01004>; and I was delivered of a

child <03205> (8799) with her in the house <01004>.

1Ki 03:18 And it came to pass the third <07992> day <03117>

after that I was delivered <03205> (8800), that this woman

<0802> was delivered <03205> (8799) also: and we were together

<03162>; there was no stranger <02114> (8801) with us in the

house <01004>, save <02108> we two <08147> in the house <01004>.

1Ki 03:19 And this woman’s <0802> child <01121> died <04191>

(8799) in the night <03915>; because she overlaid <07901> (8804)

it.

1Ki 03:20 And she arose <06965> (8799) at midnight <08432>

<03915>, and took <03947> (8799) my son <01121> from beside

<0681> me, while thine handmaid <0519> slept <03463>, and laid

<07901> (8686) it in her bosom <02436>, and laid <07901> (8689)

her dead <04191> (8801) child <01121> in my bosom <02436>.

1Ki 03:21 And when I rose <06965> (8799) in the morning <01242>

to give my child <01121> suck <03243> (8687), behold, it was

dead <04191> (8804): but when I had considered <0995> (8709) it

in the morning <01242>, behold, it was not my son <01121>, which

I did bear <03205> (8804).

1Ki 03:22 And the other <0312> woman <0802> said <0559> (8799),

Nay; but the living <02416> is my son <01121>, and the dead

<04191> (8801) is thy son <01121>. And this said <0559> (8802),

No; but the dead <04191> (8801) is thy son <01121>, and the

living <02416> is my son <01121>. Thus they spake <01696> (8762)

before <06440> the king <04428>.

1Ki 03:23 Then said <0559> (8799) the king <04428>, The one

<02063> saith <0559> (8802), This is my son <01121> that liveth

<02416>, and thy son <01121> is the dead <04191> (8801): and the

other <02063> saith <0559> (8802), Nay; but thy son <01121> is

the dead <04191> (8801), and my son <01121> is the living

<02416>.

1Ki 03:24 And the king <04428> said <0559> (8799), Bring

<03947> (8798) me a sword <02719>. And they brought <0935>

(8686) a sword <02719> before <06440> the king <04428>.

1Ki 03:25 And the king <04428> said <0559> (8799), Divide

<01504> (8798) the living <02416> child <03206> in two <08147>,

and give <05414> (8798) half <02677> to the one <0259>, and half

<02677> to the other <0259>.

1Ki 03:26 Then spake <0559> (8799) the woman <0802> whose the

living <02416> child <01121> was unto the king <04428>, for her

bowels <07356> yearned <03648> (8738) upon her son <01121>, and

she said <0559> (8799), O <0994> my lord <0113>, give <05414>

(8798) her the living <02416> child <03205> (8803), and in no

wise <04191> (8687) slay <04191> (8686) it. But the other said

<0559> (8802), Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide

<01504> (8798) it.

1Ki 03:27 Then the king <04428> answered <06030> (8799) and

said <0559> (8799), Give <05414> (8798) her the living <02416>

child <03205> (8803), and in no wise <04191> (8687) slay <04191>

(8686) it: she is the mother <0517> thereof.

1Ki 03:28 And all Israel <03478> heard <08085> (8799) of the

judgment <04941> which the king <04428> had judged <08199>

(8804); and they feared <03372> (8799) the king <06440>: for

they saw <07200> (8804) that the wisdom <02451> of God <0430>

was in him <07130>, to do <06213> (8800) judgment <04941>.

1Ki 04:01 ¶ So king <04428> Solomon <08010> was king <04428>

over all Israel <03478>.

1Ki 04:02 And these were the princes <08269> which he had;

Azariah <05838> the son <01121> of Zadok <06659> the priest

<03548>,

1Ki 04:03 Elihoreph <0456> and Ahiah <0281>, the sons <01121>

of Shisha <07894>, scribes <05608> (8802); Jehoshaphat <03092>

the son <01121> of Ahilud <0286>, the recorder <02142> (8688).

1Ki 04:04 And Benaiah <01141> the son <01121> of Jehoiada

<03077> was over the host <06635>: and Zadok <06659> and

Abiathar <054> were the priests <03548>:

1Ki 04:05 And Azariah <05838> the son <01121> of Nathan <05416>

was over the officers <05324> (8737): and Zabud <02071> the son

<01121> of Nathan <05416> was principal officer <03548>, and the

king’s <04428> friend <07463>:

1Ki 04:06 And Ahishar <0301> was over the household <01004>:

and Adoniram <0141> the son <01121> of Abda <05653> was over the

tribute <04522>.

1Ki 04:07 And Solomon <08010> had twelve <08147> <06240>

officers <05324> (8737) over all Israel <03478>, which provided

victuals <03557> (8773) for the king <04428> and his household

<01004>: each man <0259> his month <02320> in a year <08141>

made provision <03557> (8771).

1Ki 04:08 And these are their names <08034>: The son of Hur

<01133>, in mount <02022> Ephraim <0669>:

1Ki 04:09 The son of Dekar <01128> (8677) <01857>, in Makaz

<04739>, and in Shaalbim <08169>, and Bethshemesh <01053>, and

Elonbethhanan <0358>:

1Ki 04:10 The son of Hesed <01136> (8676) <02618>, in Aruboth

<0700>; to him pertained Sochoh <07755>, and all the land <0776>

of Hepher <02660>:

1Ki 04:11 The son of Abinadab <01125>, in all the region

<05299> of Dor <01756>; which had Taphath <02955> the daughter

<01323> of Solomon <08010> to wife <0802>:

1Ki 04:12 Baana <01195> the son <01121> of Ahilud <0286>; to

him pertained Taanach <08590> and Megiddo <04023>, and all

Bethshean <01052>, which is by <0681> Zartanah <06891> beneath

Jezreel <03157>, from Bethshean <01052> to Abelmeholah <065>,

even unto the place that is beyond <05676> Jokneam <03361>:

1Ki 04:13 The son of Geber <01127>, in Ramothgilead <01568>

<07433>; to him pertained the towns <02333> of Jair <02971> the

son <01121> of Manasseh <04519>, which are in Gilead <01568>; to

him also pertained the region <02256> of Argob <0709>, which is

in Bashan <01316>, threescore <08346> great <01419> cities

<05892> with walls <02346> and brasen <05178> bars <01280>:

1Ki 04:14 Ahinadab <0292> the son <01121> of Iddo <05714> had

Mahanaim <04266>:

1Ki 04:15 Ahimaaz <0290> was in Naphtali <05321>; he also took

<03947> (8804) Basmath <01315> the daughter <01323> of Solomon

<08010> to wife <0802>:

1Ki 04:16 Baanah <01195> the son <01121> of Hushai <02365> was

in Asher <0836> and in Aloth <01175>:

in Issachar <03485>:

1Ki 04:18 Shimei <08096> the son <01121> of Elah <0414>, in

Benjamin <01144>:

1Ki 04:19 Geber <01398> the son <01121> of Uri <0221> was in

the country <0776> of Gilead <01568>, in the country <0776> of

Sihon <05511> king <04428> of the Amorites <0567>, and of Og

<05747> king <04428> of Bashan <01316>; and he was the only

<0259> officer <05333> which was in the land <0776>.

1Ki 04:20 ¶ Judah <03063> and Israel <03478> were many <07227>,

as the sand <02344> which is by the sea <03220> in multitude

<07230>, eating <0398> (8802) and drinking <08354> (8802), and

making merry <08056>.

1Ki 04:21 And Solomon <08010> reigned <04910> (8802) over all

kingdoms <04467> from the river <05104> unto the land <0776> of

the Philistines <06430>, and unto the border <01366> of Egypt

<04714>: they brought <05066> (8688) presents <04503>, and

served <05647> (8802) Solomon <08010> all the days <03117> of

his life <02416>.

1Ki 04:22 And Solomon’s <08010> provision <03899> for one

<0259> day <03117> was thirty <07970> measures <03734> of fine

flour <05560>, and threescore <08346> measures <03734> of meal

<07058>,

1Ki 04:23 Ten <06235> fat <01277> oxen <01241>, and twenty

<06242> oxen <01241> out of the pastures <07471>, and an hundred

<03967> sheep <06629>, beside harts <0354>, and roebucks <06643>,

and fallowdeer <03180>, and fatted <075> (8803) fowl <01257>.

1Ki 04:24 For he had dominion <07287> (8802) over all the

region on this side <05676> the river <05104>, from Tiphsah

<08607> even to Azzah <05804>, over all the kings <04428> on

this side <05676> the river <05104>: and he had peace <07965> on

all sides <05650> (8676) <05676> round about <05439> him.

1Ki 04:25 And Judah <03063> and Israel <03478> dwelt <03427>

(8799) safely <0983>, every man <0376> under his vine <01612>

and under his fig tree <08384>, from Dan <01835> even to

Beersheba <0884>, all the days <03117> of Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 04:26 And Solomon <08010> had forty <0705> thousand <0505>

stalls <0723> of horses <05483> for his chariots <04817>, and

twelve <08147> <06240> thousand <0505> horsemen <06571>.

1Ki 04:27 And those officers <05324> (8737) provided victual

<03557> (8773) for king <04428> Solomon <08010>, and for all

that came <07131> unto king <04428> Solomon’s <08010> table

<07979>, every man <0376> in his month <02320>: they lacked

<05737> (8762) nothing <01697>.

1Ki 04:28 Barley <08184> also and straw <08401> for the horses

<05483> and dromedaries <07409> brought <0935> (8686) they unto

the place <04725> where the officers were, every man <0376>

according to his charge <04941>.

1Ki 04:29 ¶ And God <0430> gave <05414> (8799) Solomon <08010>

wisdom <02451> and understanding <08394> exceeding <03966> much

<07235> (8687), and largeness <07341> of heart <03820>, even as

the sand <02344> that is on the sea <03220> shore <08193>.

1Ki 04:30 And Solomon’s <08010> wisdom <02451> excelled <07235>

(8799) the wisdom <02451> of all the children <01121> of the

east country <06924>, and all the wisdom <02451> of Egypt

<04714>.

1Ki 04:31 For he was wiser <02449> (8799) than all men <0120>;

than Ethan <0387> the Ezrahite <0250>, and Heman <01968>, and

Chalcol <03633>, and Darda <01862>, the sons <01121> of Mahol

<04235>: and his fame <08034> was in all nations <01471> round

about <05439>.

1Ki 04:32 And he spake <01696> (8762) three <07969> thousand

<0505> proverbs <04912>: and his songs <07892> were a thousand

<0505> and five <02568>.

1Ki 04:33 And he spake <01696> (8762) of trees <06086>, from

the cedar tree <0730> that is in Lebanon <03844> even unto the

hyssop <0231> that springeth out <03318> (8802) of the wall

<07023>: he spake <01696> (8762) also of beasts <0929>, and of

fowl <05775>, and of creeping things <07431>, and of fishes

<01709>.

1Ki 04:34 And there came <0935> (8799) of all people <05971> to

hear <08085> (8800) the wisdom <02451> of Solomon <08010>, from

all kings <04428> of the earth <0776>, which had heard <08085>

(8804) of his wisdom <02451>.

1Ki 05:01 ¶ And Hiram <02438> king <04428> of Tyre <06865> sent

<07971> (8799) his servants <05650> unto Solomon <08010>; for he

had heard <08085> (8804) that they had anointed <04886> (8804)

him king <04428> in the room of his father <01>: for Hiram

<02438> was ever <03117> a lover <0157> (8802) of David <01732>.

1Ki 05:02 And Solomon <08010> sent <07971> (8799) to Hiram

<02438>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 05:03 Thou knowest <03045> (8804) how that David <01732> my

father <01> could <03201> (8804) not build <01129> (8800) an

house <01004> unto the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> his God

<0430> for <06440> the wars <04421> which were about him on

every side <05437> (8804), until the LORD <03068> put <05414>

(8800) them under the soles <03709> of his feet <07272>.

1Ki 05:04 But now the LORD <03068> my God <0430> hath given me

rest <05117> (8689) on every side <05439>, so that there is

neither adversary <07854> nor evil <07451> occurrent <06294>.

1Ki 05:05 And, behold, I purpose <0559> (8802) to build <01129>

(8800) an house <01004> unto the name <08034> of the LORD

<03068> my God <0430>, as the LORD <03068> spake <01696> (8765)

unto David <01732> my father <01>, saying <0559> (8800), Thy son

<01121>, whom I will set <05414> (8799) upon thy throne <03678>

in thy room, he shall build <01129> (8799) an house <01004> unto

my name <08034>.

1Ki 05:06 Now therefore command <06680> (8761) thou that they

hew <03772> (8799) me cedar trees <0730> out of Lebanon <03844>;

and my servants <05650> shall be with thy servants <05650>: and

unto thee will I give <05414> (8799) hire <07939> for thy

servants <05650> according to all that thou shalt appoint <0559>

(8799): for thou knowest <03045> (8804) that there is not among

us any <0376> that can skill <03045> (8802) to hew <03772>

(8800) timber <06086> like unto the Sidonians <06722>.

1Ki 05:07 And it came to pass, when Hiram <02438> heard <08085>

(8800) the words <01697> of Solomon <08010>, that he rejoiced

<08055> (8799) greatly <03966>, and said <0559> (8799), Blessed

<01288> (8803) be the LORD <03068> this day <03117>, which hath

given <05414> (8804) unto David <01732> a wise <02450> son

<01121> over this great <07227> people <05971>.

1Ki 05:08 And Hiram <02438> sent <07971> (8799) to Solomon

<08010>, saying <0559> (8800), I have considered <08085> (8804)

the things which thou sentest <07971> (8804) to me for: and I

will do <06213> (8799) all thy desire <02656> concerning timber

<06086> of cedar <0730>, and concerning timber <06086> of fir

<01265>.

1Ki 05:09 My servants <05650> shall bring them down <03381>

(8686) from Lebanon <03844> unto the sea <03220>: and I will

convey <07760> (8799) them by sea <03220> in floats <01702> unto

the place <04725> that thou shalt appoint <07971> (8799) me, and

will cause them to be discharged <05310> (8765) there, and thou

shalt receive <05375> (8799) them: and thou shalt accomplish

<06213> (8799) my desire <02656>, in giving <05414> (8800) food

<03899> for my household <01004>.

1Ki 05:10 ¶ So Hiram <02438> gave <05414> (8802) Solomon <08010>

cedar <0730> trees <06086> and fir <01265> trees <06086>

according to all his desire <02656>.

1Ki 05:11 And Solomon <08010> gave <05414> (8804) Hiram <02438>

twenty <06242> thousand <0505> measures <03734> of wheat <02406>

for food <04361> to his household <01004>, and twenty <06242>

measures <03734> of pure <03795> oil <08081>: thus gave <05414>

(8799) Solomon <08010> to Hiram <02438> year <08141> by year

<08141>.

1Ki 05:12 And the LORD <03068> gave <05414> (8804) Solomon

<08010> wisdom <02451>, as he promised <01696> (8765) him: and

there was peace <07965> between Hiram <02438> and Solomon

<08010>; and they two <08147> <00> made <03772> (8799) a league

<01285> together <08147>.

1Ki 05:13 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> raised <05927>

(8686) a levy <04522> out of all Israel <03478>; and the levy

<04522> was thirty <07970> thousand <0505> men <0376>.

1Ki 05:14 And he sent <07971> (8799) them to Lebanon <03844>,

ten <06235> thousand <0505> a month <02320> by courses <02487>:

a month <02320> they were in Lebanon <03844>, and two <08147>

months <02320> at home <01004>: and Adoniram <0141> was over the

levy <04522>.

1Ki 05:15 And Solomon <08010> had threescore and ten <07657>

thousand <0505> that bare <05375> (8802) burdens <05449>, and

fourscore <08084> thousand <0505> hewers <02672> (8802) in the

mountains <02022>;

1Ki 05:16 Beside the chief <08269> of Solomon’s <08010>

officers <05324> (8737) which were over the work <04399>, three

<07969> thousand <0505> and three <07969> hundred <03967>, which

ruled <07287> (8802) over the people <05971> that wrought

<06213> (8802) in the work <04399>.

1Ki 05:17 And the king <04428> commanded <06680> (8762), and

they brought <05265> (8686) great <01419> stones <068>, costly

<03368> stones <068>, and hewed <01496> stones <068>, to lay the

foundation <03245> (8763) of the house <01004>.

1Ki 05:18 And Solomon’s <08010> builders <01129> (8802) and

Hiram’s <02438> builders <01129> (8802) did hew <06458> (8799)

them, and the stonesquarers <01382>: so they prepared <03559>

(8686) timber <06086> and stones <068> to build <01129> (8800)

the house <01004>.

1Ki 06:01 ¶ And it came to pass in the four <0702> hundred

<03967> <08141> and eightieth <08084> year <08141> after the

children <01121> of Israel <03478> were come out <03318> (8800)

of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>, in the fourth <07243> year

<08141> of Solomon’s <08010> reign <04427> (8800) over Israel

<03478>, in the month <02320> Zif <02099>, which is the second

<08145> month <02320>, that he began to build <01129> (8799) the

house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 06:02 And the house <01004> which king <04428> Solomon

<08010> built <01129> (8804) for the LORD <03068>, the length

<0753> thereof was threescore <08346> cubits <0520>, and the

breadth <07341> thereof twenty <06242> cubits, and the height

<06967> thereof thirty <07970> cubits <0520>.

1Ki 06:03 And the porch <0197> before <06440> the temple

<01964> of the house <01004>, twenty <06242> cubits <0520> was

the length <0753> thereof, according to the breadth <07341> of

the house <01004>; and ten <06235> cubits <0520> was the breadth

<07341> thereof before the house <01004>.

1Ki 06:04 And for the house <01004> he made <06213> (8799)

windows <02474> of narrow <0331> (8801) lights <08261>.

1Ki 06:05 And against the wall <07023> of the house <01004> he

built <01129> (8799) chambers <03326> (8675) <03326> round about

<05439>, against the walls <07023> of the house <01004> round

about <05439>, both of the temple <01964> and of the oracle

<01687>: and he made <06213> (8799) chambers <06763> round about

<05439>:

1Ki 06:06 The nethermost <08481> chamber <03326> (8675) <03326>

was five <02568> cubits <0520> broad <07341>, and the middle

<08484> was six <08337> cubits <0520> broad <07341>, and the

third <07992> was seven <07651> cubits <0520> broad <07341>: for

without in the wall of <02351> the house <01004> he made <05414>

(8804) narrowed rests <04052> round about <05439>, that the

beams should not be fastened <0270> (8800) in the walls <07023>

of the house <01004>.

1Ki 06:07 And the house <01004>, when it was in building

<01129> (8736), was built <01129> (8738) of stone <068> made

ready <08003> before it was brought <04551> thither: so that

there was neither hammer <04717> nor axe <01631> nor any tool

<03627> of iron <01270> heard <08085> (8738) in the house

<01004>, while it was in building <01129> (8736).

1Ki 06:08 The door <06607> for the middle <08484> chamber

<06763> was in the right <03233> side <03802> of the house

<01004>: and they went up <05927> (8799) with winding stairs

<03883> into the middle <08484> chamber, and out of the middle

<08484> into the third <07992>.

1Ki 06:09 So he built <01129> (8799) the house <01004>, and

finished <03615> (8762) it; and covered <05603> (8799) the house

<01004> with beams <01356> and boards <07713> of cedar <0730>.

1Ki 06:10 And then he built <01129> (8799) chambers <03326>

(8675) <03326> against all the house <01004>, five <02568>

cubits <0520> high <06967>: and they rested <0270> (8799) on the

house <01004> with timber <06086> of cedar <0730>.

1Ki 06:11 ¶ And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to

Solomon <08010>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 06:12 Concerning this house <01004> which thou art in

building <01129> (8802), if thou wilt walk <03212> (8799) in my

statutes <02708>, and execute <06213> (8799) my judgments

<04941>, and keep <08104> (8804) all my commandments <04687> to

walk <03212> (8800) in them; then will I perform <06965> (8689)

my word <01697> with thee, which I spake <01696> (8765) unto

David <01732> thy father <01>:

1Ki 06:13 And I will dwell <07931> (8804) among <08432> the

children <01121> of Israel <03478>, and will not forsake <05800>

(8799) my people <05971> Israel <03478>.

1Ki 06:14 So Solomon <08010> built <01129> (8799) the house

<01004>, and finished <03615> (8762) it.

1Ki 06:15 ¶ And he built <01129> (8799) the walls <07023> of the

house <01004> within <01004> with boards <06763> of cedar <0730>,

both the floor <07172> of the house <01004>, and the walls

<07023> of the cieling <05604>: and he covered <06823> (8765)

them on the inside <01004> with wood <06086>, and covered

<06823> (8762) the floor <07172> of the house <01004> with

planks <06763> of fir <01265>.

1Ki 06:16 And he built <01129> (8799) twenty <06242> cubits

<0520> on the sides <03411> of the house <01004>, both <04480>

the floor <07172> and the walls <07023> with boards <06763> of

cedar <0730>: he even built <01129> (8799) them for it within

<01004>, even for the oracle <01687>, even for the most <06944>

holy <06944> place.

1Ki 06:17 And the house <01004>, that is, the temple <01964>

before <03942> it, was forty <0705> cubits <0520> long.

1Ki 06:18 And the cedar <0730> of the house <01004> within

<06441> was carved <04734> with knops <06497> and open <06362>

(8803) flowers <06731>: all was cedar <0730>; there was no stone

<068> seen <07200> (8738).

1Ki 06:19 And the oracle <01687> he prepared <03559> (8689) in

<08432> the house <01004> within <06441>, to set <05414> (8800)

there the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 06:20 And the oracle <01687> in the forepart <06440> was

twenty <06242> cubits <0520> in length <0753>, and twenty

<06242> cubits <0520> in breadth <07341>, and twenty <06242>

cubits <0520> in the height <06967> thereof: and he overlaid

<06823> (8762) it with pure <05462> (8803) gold <02091>; and so

covered <06823> (8762) the altar <04196> which was of cedar

<0730>.

1Ki 06:21 So Solomon <08010> overlaid <06823> (8762) the house

<01004> within <06441> with pure <05462> (8803) gold <02091>:

and he made a partition <05674> (8762) by the chains <07572>

(8675) <07572> of gold <02091> before <06440> the oracle <01687>;

and he overlaid <06823> (8762) it with gold <02091>.

1Ki 06:22 And the whole house <01004> he overlaid <06823>

(8765) with gold <02091>, until he had finished <08552> (8800)

all the house <01004>: also the whole altar <04196> that was by

the oracle <01687> he overlaid <06823> (8765) with gold <02091>.

1Ki 06:23 And within the oracle <01687> he made <06213> (8799)

two <08147> cherubims <03742> of olive <08081> tree <06086>,

each ten <06235> cubits <0520> high <06967>.

1Ki 06:24 And five <02568> cubits <0520> was the one <0259>

wing <03671> of the cherub <03742>, and five <02568> cubits

<0520> the other <08145> wing <03671> of the cherub <03742>:

from the uttermost part <07098> of the one wing <03671> unto the

uttermost part <07098> of the other <03671> were ten <06235>

cubits <0520>.

1Ki 06:25 And the other <08145> cherub <03742> was ten <06235>

cubits <0520>: both <08147> the cherubims <03742> were of one

<0259> measure <04060> and one <0259> size <07095>.

1Ki 06:26 The height <06967> of the one <0259> cherub <03742>

was ten <06235> cubits <0520>, and so was it of the other

<08145> cherub <03742>.

1Ki 06:27 And he set <05414> (8799) the cherubims <03742>

within <08432> the inner <06442> house <01004>: and they

stretched forth <06566> (8799) the wings <03671> of the

cherubims <03742>, so that the wing <03671> of the one <0259>

touched <05060> (8799) the one wall <07023>, and the wing

<03671> of the other <08145> cherub <03742> touched <05060>

(8802) the other <08145> wall <07023>; and their wings <03671>

touched <05060> (8802) one <03671> another <03671> in the midst

<08432> of the house <01004>.

1Ki 06:28 And he overlaid <06823> (8762) the cherubims <03742>

with gold <02091>.

1Ki 06:29 And he carved <07049> (8804) all the walls <07023> of

the house <01004> round about <04524> with carved <06603>

figures <04734> of cherubims <03742> and palm trees <08561> and

open <06362> (8803) flowers <06731>, within <06441> and without

<02435>.

1Ki 06:30 And the floor <07172> of the house <01004> he

overlaid <06823> (8765) with gold <02091>, within <06441> and

without <02435>.

1Ki 06:31 And for the entering <06607> of the oracle <01687> he

made <06213> (8804) doors <01817> of olive <08081> tree <06086>:

the lintel <0352> and side posts <04201> were a fifth part

<02549> of the wall.

1Ki 06:32 The two <08147> doors <01817> also were of olive

<08081> tree <06086>; and he carved <07049> (8804) upon them

carvings <04734> of cherubims <03742> and palm trees <08561> and

open <06362> (8803) flowers <06731>, and overlaid <06823> (8765)

them with gold <02091>, and spread <07286> (8686) gold <02091>

upon the cherubims <03742>, and upon the palm trees <08561>.

1Ki 06:33 So also made <06213> (8804) he for the door <06607>

of the temple <01964> posts <04201> of olive <08081> tree

<06086>, a fourth part <07243> of the wall.

1Ki 06:34 And the two <08147> doors <01817> were of fir <01265>

tree <06086>: the two <08147> leaves <06763> of the one <0259>

door <01817> were folding <01550>, and the two <08147> leaves

<07050> of the other <08145> door <01817> were folding <01550>.

1Ki 06:35 And he carved <07049> (8804) thereon cherubims

<03742> and palm trees <08561> and open <06362> (8803) flowers

<06731>: and covered <06823> (8765) them with gold <02091>

fitted <03474> (8794) upon the carved work <02707> (8794).

1Ki 06:36 And he built <01129> (8799) the inner <06442> court

<02691> with three <07969> rows <02905> of hewed stone <01496>,

and a row <02905> of cedar <0730> beams <03773>.

1Ki 06:37 In the fourth <07243> year <08141> was the foundation

<03245> <00> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> laid

<03245> (8795), in the month <03391> Zif <02099>:

1Ki 06:38 And in the eleventh <0259> <06240> year <08141>, in

the month <03391> Bul <0945>, which is the eighth <08066> month

<02320>, was the house <01004> finished <03615> (8804)

throughout all the parts <01697> thereof, and according to all

the fashion <04941> of it. So was he seven <07651> years <08141>

in building <01129> (8799) it.

1Ki 07:01 ¶ But Solomon <08010> was building <01129> (8804) his

own house <01004> thirteen <07969> <06240> years <08141>, and he

finished <03615> (8762) all his house <01004>.

1Ki 07:02 He built <01129> (8799) also the house <01004> of the

forest <03293> of Lebanon <03844>; the length <0753> thereof was

an hundred <03967> cubits <0520>, and the breadth <07341>

thereof fifty <02572> cubits <0520>, and the height <06967>

thereof thirty <07970> cubits <0520>, upon four <0702> rows

<02905> of cedar <0730> pillars <05982>, with cedar <0730> beams

<03773> upon the pillars <05982>.

1Ki 07:03 And it was covered <05603> (8803) with cedar <0730>

above <04605> upon the beams <06763>, that lay on forty <0705>

five <02568> pillars <05982>, fifteen <06240> in a row <02905>.

1Ki 07:04 And there were windows <08261> in three <07969> rows

<02905>, and light <04237> was against light <04237> in three

<07969> ranks <06471>.

1Ki 07:05 And all the doors <06607> and posts <04201> were

square <07251> (8803), with the windows <08260>: and light

<04237> was against <04136> light <04237> in three <07969> ranks

<06471>.

1Ki 07:06 And he made <06213> (8804) a porch <0197> of pillars

<05982>; the length <0753> thereof was fifty <02572> cubits

<0520>, and the breadth <07341> thereof thirty <07970> cubits

<0520>: and the porch <0197> was before <06440> them: and the

other pillars <05982> and the thick beam <05646> were before

them.

1Ki 07:07 Then he made <06213> (8804) a porch <0197> for the

throne <03678> where he might judge <08199> (8799), even the

porch <0197> of judgment <04941>: and it was covered <05603>

(8803) with cedar <0730> from one side of the floor <07172> to

the other <07172>.

1Ki 07:08 And his house <01004> where he dwelt <03427> (8799)

had another <0312> court <02691> within <01004> the porch <0197>,

which was of the like work <04639>. Solomon <08010> made

<06213> (8799) also an house <01004> for Pharaoh’s <06547>

daughter <01323>, whom he had taken <03947> (8804) to wife, like

unto this porch <0197>.

1Ki 07:09 All these were of costly <03368> stones <068>,

according to the measures <04060> of hewed stones <01496>, sawed

<01641> (8775) with saws <04050>, within <01004> and without

<02351>, even from the foundation <04527> unto the coping

<02947>, and so on the outside <02351> toward the great <01419>

court <02691>.

1Ki 07:10 And the foundation <03245> (8794) was of costly

<03368> stones <068>, even great <01419> stones <068>, stones

<068> of ten <06235> cubits <0520>, and stones <068> of eight

<08083> cubits <0520>.

1Ki 07:11 And above <04605> were costly <03368> stones <068>,

after the measures <04060> of hewed stones <01496>, and cedars

<0730>.

1Ki 07:12 And the great <01419> court <02691> round about

<05439> was with three <07969> rows <02905> of hewed stones

<01496>, and a row <02905> of cedar <0730> beams <03773>, both

for the inner <06442> court <02691> of the house <01004> of the

LORD <03068>, and for the porch <0197> of the house <01004>.

1Ki 07:13 ¶ And king <04428> Solomon <08010> sent <07971> (8799)

and fetched <03947> (8799) Hiram <02438> out of Tyre <06865>.

1Ki 07:14 He was a widow’s <0802> <0490> son <01121> of the

tribe <04294> of Naphtali <05321>, and his father <01> was a man

<0376> of Tyre <06876>, a worker <02790> (8802) in brass <05178>:

and he was filled <04390> (8735) with wisdom <02451>, and

understanding <08394>, and cunning <01847> to work <06213>

(8800) all works <04399> in brass <05178>. And he came <0935>

(8799) to king <04428> Solomon <08010>, and wrought <06213>

(8799) all his work <04399>.

1Ki 07:15 For he cast <06696> (8799) two <08147> pillars

<05982> of brass <05178>, of eighteen <08083> <06240> cubits

<0520> high <06967> apiece <05982> <0259>: and a line <02339> of

twelve <08147> <06240> cubits <0520> did compass <05437> <00>

either <08145> of them about <05437> (8799).

1Ki 07:16 And he made <06213> (8804) two <08147> chapiters

<03805> of molten <03332> (8716) brass <05178>, to set <05414>

(8800) upon the tops <07218> of the pillars <05982>: the height

<06967> of the one <0259> chapiter <03805> was five <02568>

cubits <0520>, and the height <06967> of the other <08145>

chapiter <03805> was five <02568> cubits <0520>:

1Ki 07:17 And nets <07638> of checker <07639> work <04639>, and

wreaths <01434> of chain <08333> work <04639>, for the chapiters

<03805> which were upon the top <07218> of the pillars <05982>;

seven <07651> for the one <0259> chapiter <03805>, and seven

<07651> for the other <08145> chapiter <03805>.

1Ki 07:18 And he made <06213> (8799) the pillars <05982>, and

two <08147> rows <02905> round about <05439> upon the one <0259>

network <07639>, to cover <03680> (8763) the chapiters <03805>

that were upon the top <07218>, with pomegranates <07416>: and

so did <06213> (8804) he for the other <08145> chapiter <03805>.

1Ki 07:19 And the chapiters <03805> that were upon the top

<07218> of the pillars <05982> were of lily <07799> work <04639>

in the porch <0197>, four <0702> cubits <0520>.

1Ki 07:20 And the chapiters <03805> upon the two <08147>

pillars <05982> had pomegranates also above <04605>, over

against <05980> the belly <0990> which was by <05676> the

network <07639>: and the pomegranates <07416> were two hundred

<03967> in rows <02905> round about <05439> upon the other

<08145> chapiter <03805>.

1Ki 07:21 And he set up <06965> (8686) the pillars <05982> in

the porch <0197> of the temple <01964>: and he set up <06965>

(8686) the right <03233> pillar <05982>, and called <07121>

(8799) the name <08034> thereof Jachin <03199>: and he set up

<06965> (8686) the left <08042> pillar <05982>, and called

<07121> (8799) the name <08034> thereof Boaz <01162>.

1Ki 07:22 And upon the top <07218> of the pillars <05982> was

lily <07799> work <04639>: so was the work <04399> of the

pillars <05982> finished <08552> (8799).

1Ki 07:23 And he made <06213> (8799) a molten <03332> (8716)

sea <03220>, ten <06235> cubits <0520> from the one brim <08193>

to the other <08193>: it was round <05696> all about <05439>,

and his height <06967> was five <02568> cubits <0520>: and a

line <06957> (8675) <06961> of thirty <07970> cubits <0520> did

compass <05437> (8799) it round about <05439>.

1Ki 07:24 And under the brim <08193> of it round about <05439>

there were knops <06497> compassing <05437> (8802) it, ten

<06235> in a cubit <0520>, compassing <05362> (8688) the sea

<03220> round about <05439>: the knops <06497> were cast <03333>

in two <08147> rows <02905>, when it was cast <03332> (8803).

1Ki 07:25 It stood <05975> (8802) upon twelve <08147> <06240>

oxen <01241>, three <07969> looking <06437> (8802) toward the

north <06828>, and three <07969> looking <06437> (8802) toward

the west <03220>, and three <07969> looking <06437> (8802)

toward the south <05045>, and three <07969> looking <06437>

(8802) toward the east <04217>: and the sea <03220> was set

above <04605> upon them, and all their hinder parts <0268> were

inward <01004>.

1Ki 07:26 And it was an hand breadth <02947> thick <05672>, and

the brim <08193> thereof was wrought <04639> like the brim

<08193> of a cup <03563>, with flowers <06525> of lilies <07799>:

it contained <03557> (8686) two thousand <0505> baths <01324>.

1Ki 07:27 And he made <06213> (8799) ten <06235> bases <04350>

of brass <05178>; four <0702> cubits <0520> was the length

<0753> of one <0259> base <04350>, and four <0702> cubits <0520>

the breadth <07341> thereof, and three <07969> cubits <0520> the

height <06967> of it.

1Ki 07:28 And the work <04639> of the bases <04350> was on this

manner: they had borders <04526>, and the borders <04526> were

between the ledges <07948>:

1Ki 07:29 And on the borders <04526> that were between the

ledges <07948> were lions <0738>, oxen <01241>, and cherubims

<03742>: and upon the ledges <07948> there was a base <03653>

above <04605>: and beneath the lions <0738> and oxen <01241>

were certain additions <03914> made of thin <04174> work <04639>.

1Ki 07:30 And every <0259> base <04350> had four <0702> brasen

<05178> wheels <0212>, and plates <05633> of brass <05178>: and

the four <0702> corners <06471> thereof had undersetters <03802>:

under the laver <03595> were undersetters <03802> molten

<03332> (8803), at the side <05676> of every <0376> addition

<03914>.

1Ki 07:31 And the mouth <06310> of it within <01004> the

chapiter <03805> and above <04605> was a cubit <0520>: but the

mouth <06310> thereof was round <05696> after the work <04639>

of the base <03653>, a cubit <0520> and an half <02677>: and

also upon the mouth <06310> of it were gravings <04734> with

their borders <04526>, foursquare <07251> (8794), not round

<05696>.

1Ki 07:32 And under <08478> the borders <04526> were four

<0702> wheels <0212>; and the axletrees <03027> of the wheels

<0212> were joined to the base <04350>: and the height <06967>

of a <0259> wheel <0212> was a cubit <0520> and half <02677> a

cubit <0520>.

1Ki 07:33 And the work <04639> of the wheels <0212> was like

the work <04639> of a chariot <04818> wheel <0212>: their

axletrees <03027>, and their naves <01354>, and their felloes

<02839>, and their spokes <02840>, were all molten <03332>

(8716).

1Ki 07:34 And there were four <0702> undersetters <03802> to

the four <0702> corners <06438> of one <0259> base <04350>: and

the undersetters <03802> were of the very base <04350> itself.

1Ki 07:35 And in the top <07218> of the base <04350> was there

a round <05696> compass <05439> of half <02677> a cubit <0520>

high <06967>: and on the top <07218> of the base <04350> the

ledges <03027> thereof and the borders <04526> thereof were of

the same.

1Ki 07:36 For on the plates <03871> of the ledges <03027>

thereof, and on the borders <04526> thereof, he graved <06605>

(8762) cherubims <03742>, lions <0738>, and palm trees <08561>,

according to the proportion <04626> of every one <0376>, and

additions <03914> round about <05439>.

1Ki 07:37 After this manner he made <06213> (8804) the ten

<06235> bases <04350>: all of them had one <0259> casting

<04165>, one <0259> measure <04060>, and one <0259> size <07095>.

1Ki 07:38 Then made <06213> (8799) he ten <06235> lavers

<03595> of brass <05178>: one <0259> laver <03595> contained

<03557> (8686) forty <0705> baths <01324>: and every <0259>

laver <03595> was four <0702> cubits <0520>: and upon every one

<0259> of the ten <06235> bases <04350> one <0259> laver <03595>.

1Ki 07:39 And he put <05414> (8799) five <02568> bases <04350>

on the right <03225> side <03802> of the house <01004>, and five

<02568> on the left <08040> side <03802> of the house <01004>:

and he set <05414> (8804) the sea <03220> on the right <03233>

side <03802> of the house <01004> eastward <06924> over against

<04136> the south <05045>.

1Ki 07:40 And Hiram <02438> made <06213> (8799) the lavers

<03595>, and the shovels <03257>, and the basons <04219>. So

Hiram <02438> made <03615> (8762) an end of doing <06213> (8800)

all the work <04399> that he made <06213> (8804) king <04428>

Solomon <08010> for the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>:

1Ki 07:41 The two <08147> pillars <05982>, and the two bowls

<01543> of the chapiters <03805> that were on the top <07218> of

the two <08147> pillars <05982>; and the two <08147> networks

<07639>, to cover <03680> (8763) the two <08147> bowls <01543>

of the chapiters <03805> which were upon the top <07218> of the

pillars <05982>;

1Ki 07:42 And four <0702> hundred <03967> pomegranates <07416>

for the two <08147> networks <07639>, even two <08147> rows

<02905> of pomegranates <07416> for one <0259> network <07639>,

to cover <03680> (8763) the two <08147> bowls <01543> of the

chapiters <03805> that were upon <06440> the pillars <05982>;

1Ki 07:43 And the ten <06235> bases <04350>, and ten <06235>

lavers <03595> on the bases <04350>;

1Ki 07:44 And one <0259> sea <03220>, and twelve <08147>

<06240> oxen <01241> under the sea <03220>;

1Ki 07:45 And the pots <05518>, and the shovels <03257>, and

the basons <04219>: and all these vessels <03627>, which Hiram

<02438> made <06213> (8804) to king <04428> Solomon <08010> for

the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, were of bright <04178>

(8794) brass <05178>.

1Ki 07:46 In the plain <03603> of Jordan <03383> did the king

<04428> cast <03332> (8804) them, in the clay <04568> ground

<0127> between Succoth <05523> and Zarthan <06891>.

1Ki 07:47 And Solomon <08010> left <03240> (8686) all the

vessels <03627> unweighed, because they were exceeding <03966>

<03966> many <07230>: neither was the weight <04948> of the

brass <05178> found out <02713> (8738).

1Ki 07:48 ¶ And Solomon <08010> made <06213> (8799) all the

vessels <03627> that pertained unto the house <01004> of the

LORD <03068>: the altar <04196> of gold <02091>, and the table

<07979> of gold <02091>, whereupon the shewbread <03899> <06440>

was,

1Ki 07:49 And the candlesticks <04501> of pure <05462> (8803)

gold <02091>, five <02568> on the right <03225> side, and five

<02568> on the left <08040>, before <06440> the oracle <01687>,

with the flowers <06525>, and the lamps <05216>, and the tongs

<04457> of gold <02091>,

1Ki 07:50 And the bowls <05592>, and the snuffers <04212>, and

the basons <04219>, and the spoons <03709>, and the censers

<04289> of pure <05462> (8803) gold <02091>; and the hinges

<06596> of gold <02091>, both for the doors <01817> of the inner

<06442> house <01004>, the most <06944> holy <06944> place, and

for the doors <01817> of the house <01004>, to wit, of the

temple <01964>.

1Ki 07:51 So was ended <07999> (8799) all the work <04399> that

king <04428> Solomon <08010> made <06213> (8804) for the house

<01004> of the LORD <03068>. And Solomon <08010> brought in

<0935> (8686) the things which David <01732> his father <01> had

dedicated <06944>; even the silver <03701>, and the gold <02091>,

and the vessels <03627>, did he put <05414> (8804) among the

treasures <0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 08:01 ¶ Then Solomon <08010> assembled <06950> (8686) the

elders <02205> of Israel <03478>, and all the heads <07218> of

the tribes <04294>, the chief <05387> of the fathers <01> of the

children <01121> of Israel <03478>, unto king <04428> Solomon

<08010> in Jerusalem <03389>, that they might bring up <05927>

(8687) the ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD

<03068> out of the city <05892> of David <01732>, which is Zion

<06726>.

1Ki 08:02 And all the men <0376> of Israel <03478> assembled

<06950> (8735) themselves unto king <04428> Solomon <08010> at

the feast <02282> in the month <03391> Ethanim <0388>, which is

the seventh <07637> month <02320>.

1Ki 08:03 And all the elders <02205> of Israel <03478> came

<0935> (8799), and the priests <03548> took up <05375> (8799)

the ark <0727>.

1Ki 08:04 And they brought up <05927> (8686) the ark <0727> of

the LORD <03068>, and the tabernacle <0168> of the congregation

<04150>, and all the holy <06944> vessels <03627> that were in

the tabernacle <0168>, even those did the priests <03548> and

the Levites <03881> bring up <05927> (8686).

1Ki 08:05 And king <04428> Solomon <08010>, and all the

congregation <05712> of Israel <03478>, that were assembled

<03259> (8737) unto him, were with him before <06440> the ark

<0727>, sacrificing <02076> (8764) sheep <06629> and oxen

<01241>, that could not be told <05608> (8735) nor numbered

<04487> (8735) for multitude <07230>.

1Ki 08:06 And the priests <03548> brought in <0935> (8686) the

ark <0727> of the covenant <01285> of the LORD <03068> unto his

place <04725>, into the oracle <01687> of the house <01004>, to

the most <06944> holy <06944> place, even under the wings

<03671> of the cherubims <03742>.

1Ki 08:07 For the cherubims <03742> spread forth <06566> (8802)

their two wings <03671> over the place <04725> of the ark <0727>,

and the cherubims <03742> covered <05526> (8799) the ark <0727>

and the staves <0905> thereof above <04605>.

1Ki 08:08 And they drew out <0748> (8686) the staves <0905>,

that the ends <07218> of the staves <0905> were seen out <07200>

(8735) in the holy <06944> place before <06440> the oracle

<01687>, and they were not seen <07200> (8735) without <02351>:

and there they are unto this day <03117>.

1Ki 08:09 There was nothing in the ark <0727> save <07535> the

two <08147> tables <03871> of stone <068>, which Moses <04872>

put <03240> (8689) there at Horeb <02722>, when the LORD <03068>

made <03772> (8804) a covenant with the children <01121> of

Israel <03478>, when they came out <03318> (8800) of the land

<0776> of Egypt <04714>.

1Ki 08:10 And it came to pass, when the priests <03548> were

come out <03318> (8800) of the holy <06944> place, that the

cloud <06051> filled <04390> (8804) the house <01004> of the

LORD <03068>,

1Ki 08:11 So that the priests <03548> could <03201> (8804) not

stand <05975> (8800) to minister <08334> (8763) because <06440>

of the cloud <06051>: for the glory <03519> of the LORD <03068>

had filled <04390> (8804) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 08:12 ¶ Then spake <0559> (8804) Solomon <08010>, The LORD

<03068> said <0559> (8804) that he would dwell <07931> (8800) in

the thick darkness <06205>.

1Ki 08:13 I have surely <01129> (8800) built <01129> (8804)

thee an house <01004> to dwell in <02073>, a settled place

<04349> for thee to abide in <03427> (8800) for ever <05769>.

1Ki 08:14 And the king <04428> turned <05437> <00> his face

<06440> about <05437> (8686), and blessed <01288> (8762) all the

congregation <06951> of Israel <03478>: (and all the

congregation <06951> of Israel <03478> stood <05975> (8802);)

1Ki 08:15 And he said <0559> (8799), Blessed <01288> (8803) be

the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, which spake

<01696> (8765) with his mouth <06310> unto David <01732> my

father <01>, and hath with his hand <03027> fulfilled <04390>

(8765) it, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 08:16 Since the day <03117> that I brought forth <03318>

(8689) my people <05971> Israel <03478> out of Egypt <04714>, I

chose <0977> (8804) no city <05892> out of all the tribes

<07626> of Israel <03478> to build <01129> (8800) an house

<01004>, that my name <08034> might be therein; but I chose

<0977> (8799) David <01732> to be over my people <05971> Israel

<03478>.

1Ki 08:17 And it was in the heart <03824> of David <01732> my

father <01> to build <01129> (8800) an house <01004> for the

name <08034> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 08:18 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto David

<01732> my father <01>, Whereas <03282> <0834> it was in thine

heart <03824> to build <01129> (8800) an house <01004> unto my

name <08034>, thou didst well <02895> (8689) that it was in

thine heart <03824>.

1Ki 08:19 Nevertheless <07535> thou shalt not build <01129>

(8799) the house <01004>; but thy son <01121> that shall come

forth out <03318> (8802) of thy loins <02504>, he shall build

<01129> (8799) the house <01004> unto my name <08034>.

1Ki 08:20 And the LORD <03068> hath performed <06965> (8686)

his word <01697> that he spake <01696> (8765), and I am risen up

<06965> (8799) in the room of David <01732> my father <01>, and

sit <03427> (8799) on the throne <03678> of Israel <03478>, as

the LORD <03068> promised <01696> (8765), and have built <01129>

(8799) an house <01004> for the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>

God <0430> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 08:21 And I have set <07760> (8799) there a place <04725>

for the ark <0727>, wherein is the covenant <01285> of the LORD

<03068>, which he made <03772> (8804) with our fathers <01>,

when he brought them out <03318> (8687) of the land <0776> of

Egypt <04714>.

1Ki 08:22 ¶ And Solomon <08010> stood <05975> (8799) before

<06440> the altar <04196> of the LORD <03068> in the presence of

<05048> all the congregation <06951> of Israel <03478>, and

spread forth <06566> (8799) his hands <03709> toward heaven

<08064>:

1Ki 08:23 And he said <0559> (8799), LORD <03068> God <0430> of

Israel <03478>, there is no God <0430> like thee, in heaven

<08064> above <04605>, or on earth <0776> beneath, who keepest

<08104> (8802) covenant <01285> and mercy <02617> with thy

servants <05650> that walk <01980> (8802) before <06440> thee

with all their heart <03820>:

1Ki 08:24 Who hast kept <08104> (8804) with thy servant <05650>

David <01732> my father <01> that thou promisedst <01696> (8765)

him: thou spakest <01696> (8762) also with thy mouth <06310>,

and hast fulfilled <04390> (8765) it with thine hand <03027>, as

it is this day <03117>.

1Ki 08:25 Therefore now, LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel

<03478>, keep <08104> (8798) with thy servant <05650> David

<01732> my father <01> that thou promisedst <01696> (8765) him,

saying <0559> (8800), There shall not fail <03772> (8735) thee a

man <0376> in my sight <06440> to sit <03427> (8802) on the

throne <03678> of Israel <03478>; so <07535> that thy children

<01121> take heed <08104> (8799) to their way <01870>, that they

walk <03212> (8800) before <06440> me as thou hast walked

<01980> (8804) before <06440> me.

1Ki 08:26 And now, O God <0430> of Israel <03478>, let thy word

<01697>, I pray thee, be verified <0539> (8735), which thou

spakest <01696> (8765) unto thy servant <05650> David <01732> my

father <01>.

1Ki 08:27 But will God <0430> indeed <0552> dwell <03427>

(8799) on the earth <0776>? behold, the heaven <08064> and

heaven <08064> of heavens <08064> cannot contain <03557> (8770)

thee; how much less <0637> this house <01004> that I have

builded <01129> (8804)?

1Ki 08:28 Yet have thou respect <06437> (8804) unto the prayer

<08605> of thy servant <05650>, and to his supplication <08467>,

O LORD <03068> my God <0430>, to hearken <08085> (8800) unto the

cry <07440> and to the prayer <08605>, which thy servant <05650>

prayeth <06419> (8693) before <06440> thee to day <03117>:

1Ki 08:29 That thine eyes <05869> may be open <06605> (8803)

toward this house <01004> night <03915> and day <03117>, even

toward the place <04725> of which thou hast said <0559> (8804),

My name <08034> shall be there: that thou mayest hearken <08085>

(8800) unto the prayer <08605> which thy servant <05650> shall

make <06419> (8691) toward this place <04725>.

1Ki 08:30 And hearken <08085> (8804) thou to the supplication

<08467> of thy servant <05650>, and of thy people <05971> Israel

<03478>, when they shall pray <06419> (8691) toward this place

<04725>: and hear <08085> (8799) thou in heaven <08064> thy

dwelling <03427> (8800) place <04725>: and when thou hearest

<08085> (8804), forgive <05545> (8804).

1Ki 08:31 If any man <0376> trespass <02398> (8799) against his

neighbour <07453>, and an oath <0423> be laid <05375> (8804)

upon him to cause him to swear <0422> (8687), and the oath

<0423> come <0935> (8804) before <06440> thine altar <04196> in

this house <01004>:

1Ki 08:32 Then hear <08085> (8799) thou in heaven <08064>, and

do <06213> (8804), and judge <08199> (8804) thy servants <05650>,

condemning <07561> (8687) the wicked <07563>, to bring <05414>

(8800) his way <01870> upon his head <07218>; and justifying

<06663> (8687) the righteous <06662>, to give <05414> (8800) him

according to his righteousness <06666>.

1Ki 08:33 When thy people <05971> Israel <03478> be smitten

down <05062> (8736) before <06440> the enemy <0341> (8802),

because they have sinned <02398> (8799) against thee, and shall

turn again <07725> (8804) to thee, and confess <03034> (8689)

thy name <08034>, and pray <06419> (8694), and make supplication

<02603> (8694) unto thee in this house <01004>:

1Ki 08:34 Then hear <08085> (8799) thou in heaven <08064>, and

forgive <05545> (8804) the sin <02403> of thy people <05971>

Israel <03478>, and bring them again <07725> (8689) unto the

land <0127> which thou gavest <05414> (8804) unto their fathers

<01>.

1Ki 08:35 When heaven <08064> is shut up <06113> (8736), and

there is no rain <04306>, because they have sinned <02398>

(8799) against thee; if they pray <06419> (8694) toward this

place <04725>, and confess <03034> (8689) thy name <08034>, and

turn <07725> (8799) from their sin <02403>, when thou afflictest

<06031> (8686) them:

1Ki 08:36 Then hear <08085> (8799) thou in heaven <08064>, and

forgive <05545> (8804) the sin <02403> of thy servants <05650>,

and of thy people <05971> Israel <03478>, that thou teach

<03384> (8686) them the good <02896> way <01870> wherein they

should walk <03212> (8799), and give <05414> (8804) rain <04306>

upon thy land <0776>, which thou hast given <05414> (8804) to

thy people <05971> for an inheritance <05159>.

1Ki 08:37 If there be in the land <0776> famine <07458>, if

there be pestilence <01698>, blasting <07711>, mildew <03420>,

locust <0697>, or if there be caterpiller <02625>; if their

enemy <0341> (8802) besiege <06887> (8686) them in the land

<0776> of their cities <08179>; whatsoever plague <05061>,

whatsoever sickness <04245> there be;

1Ki 08:38 What prayer <08605> and supplication <08467> soever

be made by any man <0120>, or by all thy people <05971> Israel

<03478>, which shall know <03045> (8799) every man <0376> the

plague <05061> of his own heart <03824>, and spread forth

<06566> (8804) his hands <03709> toward this house <01004>:

1Ki 08:39 Then hear <08085> (8799) thou in heaven <08064> thy

dwelling <03427> (8800) place <04349>, and forgive <05545>

(8804), and do <06213> (8804), and give <05414> (8804) to every

man <0376> according to his ways <01870>, whose heart <03824>

thou knowest <03045> (8799); (for thou, even thou only, knowest

<03045> (8804) the hearts <03824> of all the children <01121> of

men <0120>;)

1Ki 08:40 That they may fear <03372> (8799) thee all the days

<03117> that they live <02416> in <06440> the land <0127> which

thou gavest <05414> (8804) unto our fathers <01>.

1Ki 08:41 Moreover concerning a stranger <05237>, that is not

of thy people <05971> Israel <03478>, but cometh out <0935>

(8804) of a far <07350> country <0776> for <04616> thy name’s

<08034> sake;

1Ki 08:42 (For they shall hear <08085> (8799) of thy great

<01419> name <08034>, and of thy strong <02389> hand <03027>,

and of thy stretched out <05186> (8803) arm <02220>;) when he

shall come <0935> (8804) and pray <06419> (8694) toward this

house <01004>;

1Ki 08:43 Hear <08085> (8799) thou in heaven <08064> thy

dwelling <03427> (8800) place <04349>, and do <06213> (8804)

according to all that the stranger <05237> calleth <07121>

(8799) to thee for: that all people <05971> of the earth <0776>

may know <03045> (8799) thy name <08034>, to fear <03372> (8800)

thee, as do thy people <05971> Israel <03478>; and that they may

know <03045> (8800) that this house <01004>, which I have

builded <01129> (8804), is called <07121> (8738) by thy name

<08034>.

1Ki 08:44 If thy people <05971> go out <03318> (8799) to battle

<04421> against their enemy <0341> (8802), whithersoever <01870>

thou shalt send <07971> (8799) them, and shall pray <06419>

(8694) unto the LORD <03068> toward <01870> the city <05892>

which thou hast chosen <0977> (8804), and toward the house

<01004> that I have built <01129> (8804) for thy name <08034>:

1Ki 08:45 Then hear <08085> (8804) thou in heaven <08064> their

prayer <08605> and their supplication <08467>, and maintain

<06213> (8804) their cause <04941>.

1Ki 08:46 If they sin <02398> (8799) against thee, (for there

is no man <0120> that sinneth <02398> (8799) not,) and thou be

angry <0599> (8804) with them, and deliver <05414> (8804) them

to the enemy <0341> (8802), so that they carry them away <07617>

(8804) captives <07617> (8802) unto <06440> the land <0776> of

the enemy <0341> (8802), far <07350> or near <07138>;

1Ki 08:47 Yet if they shall bethink <07725> (8689) themselves

in the land <0776> whither they were carried captives <07617>

(8738), and repent <07725> (8804) <03820>, and make supplication

<02603> (8694) unto thee in the land <0776> of them that carried

them captives <07617> (8802), saying <0559> (8800), We have

sinned <02398> (8804), and have done perversely <05753> (8689),

we have committed wickedness <07561> (8804);

1Ki 08:48 And so return <07725> (8804) unto thee with all their

heart <03824>, and with all their soul <05315>, in the land

<0776> of their enemies <0341> (8802), which led them away

captive <07617> (8804), and pray <06419> (8694) unto thee toward

<01870> their land <0776>, which thou gavest <05414> (8804) unto

their fathers <01>, the city <05892> which thou hast chosen

<0977> (8804), and the house <01004> which I have built <01129>

(8804) for thy name <08034>:

1Ki 08:49 Then hear <08085> (8804) thou their prayer <08605>

and their supplication <08467> in heaven <08064> thy dwelling

<03427> (8800) place <04349>, and maintain <06213> (8804) their

cause <04941>,

1Ki 08:50 And forgive <05545> (8804) thy people <05971> that

have sinned <02398> (8804) against thee, and all their

transgressions <06588> wherein they have transgressed <06586>

(8804) against thee, and give <05414> (8804) them compassion

<07356> before <06440> them who carried them captive <07617>

(8802), that they may have compassion <07355> (8765) on them:

1Ki 08:51 For they be thy people <05971>, and thine inheritance

<05159>, which thou broughtest forth <03318> (8689) out of Egypt

<04714>, from the midst <08432> of the furnace <03564> of iron

<01270>:

1Ki 08:52 That thine eyes <05869> may be open <06605> (8803)

unto the supplication <08467> of thy servant <05650>, and unto

the supplication <08467> of thy people <05971> Israel <03478>,

to hearken <08085> (8800) unto them in all that they call

<07121> (8800) for unto thee.

1Ki 08:53 For thou didst separate <0914> (8689) them from among

all the people <05971> of the earth <0776>, to be thine

inheritance <05159>, as thou spakest <01696> (8765) by the hand

<03027> of Moses <04872> thy servant <05650>, when thou

broughtest <03318> (8687) our fathers <01> out of Egypt <04714>,

O Lord <0136> GOD <03069>.

1Ki 08:54 ¶ And it was so, that when Solomon <08010> had made an

end <03615> (8763) of praying <06419> (8692) all this prayer

<08605> and supplication <08467> unto the LORD <03068>, he arose

<06965> (8804) from before <06440> the altar <04196> of the LORD

<03068>, from kneeling <03766> (8800) on his knees <01290> with

his hands <03709> spread up <06566> (8803) to heaven <08064>.

1Ki 08:55 And he stood <05975> (8799), and blessed <01288>

(8762) all the congregation <06951> of Israel <03478> with a

loud <01419> voice <06963>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 08:56 Blessed <01288> (8803) be the LORD <03068>, that hath

given <05414> (8804) rest <04496> unto his people <05971> Israel

<03478>, according to all that he promised <01696> (8765): there

hath not failed <05307> (8804) one <0259> word <01697> of all

his good <02896> promise <01697>, which he promised <01696>

(8765) by the hand <03027> of Moses <04872> his servant <05650>.

1Ki 08:57 The LORD <03068> our God <0430> be with us, as he was

with our fathers <01>: let him not leave <05800> (8799) us, nor

forsake <05203> (8799) us:

1Ki 08:58 That he may incline <05186> (8687) our hearts <03824>

unto him, to walk <03212> (8800) in all his ways <01870>, and to

keep <08104> (8800) his commandments <04687>, and his statutes

<02706>, and his judgments <04941>, which he commanded <06680>

(8765) our fathers <01>.

1Ki 08:59 And let these my words <01697>, wherewith I have made

supplication <02603> (8694) before <06440> the LORD <03068>, be

nigh <07138> unto the LORD <03068> our God <0430> day <03119>

and night <03915>, that he maintain <06213> (8800) the cause

<04941> of his servant <05650>, and the cause <04941> of his

people <05971> Israel <03478> at all times <03117> <03117>, as

the matter <01697> shall require:

1Ki 08:60 That all the people <05971> of the earth <0776> may

know <03045> (8800) that the LORD <03068> is God <0430>, and

that there is none else.

1Ki 08:61 Let your heart <03824> therefore be perfect <08003>

with the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, to walk <03212> (8800) in

his statutes <02706>, and to keep <08104> (8800) his

commandments <04687>, as at this day <03117>.

1Ki 08:62 ¶ And the king <04428>, and all Israel <03478> with

him, offered <02076> (8802) sacrifice <02077> before <06440> the

LORD <03068>.

1Ki 08:63 And Solomon <08010> offered <02076> (8799) a

sacrifice <02077> of peace offerings <08002>, which he offered

<02076> (8804) unto the LORD <03068>, two <08147> and twenty

<06242> thousand <0505> oxen <01241>, and an hundred <03967> and

twenty <06242> thousand <0505> sheep <06629>. So the king

<04428> and all the children <01121> of Israel <03478> dedicated

<02596> (8799) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 08:64 The same day <03117> did the king <04428> hallow

<06942> (8765) the middle <08432> of the court <02691> that was

before <06440> the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>: for there

he offered <06213> (8804) burnt offerings <05930>, and meat

offerings <04503>, and the fat <02459> of the peace offerings

<08002>: because the brasen <05178> altar <04196> that was

before <06440> the LORD <03068> was too little <06996> to

receive <03557> (8687) the burnt offerings <05930>, and meat

offerings <04503>, and the fat <02459> of the peace offerings

<08002>.

1Ki 08:65 And at that time <06256> Solomon <08010> held <06213>

(8799) a feast <02282>, and all Israel <03478> with him, a great

<01419> congregation <06951>, from the entering <0935> (8800) in

of Hamath <02574> unto the river <05158> of Egypt <04714>,

before <06440> the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, seven <07651>

days <03117> and seven <07651> days <03117>, even fourteen

<0702> <06240> days <03117>.

1Ki 08:66 On the eighth <08066> day <03117> he sent <07971>

<00> the people <05971> away <07971> (8765): and they blessed

<01288> (8762) the king <04428>, and went <03212> (8799) unto

their tents <0168> joyful <08056> and glad <02896> of heart

<03820> for all the goodness <02896> that the LORD <03068> had

done <06213> (8804) for David <01732> his servant <05650>, and

for Israel <03478> his people <05971>.

1Ki 09:01 ¶ And it came to pass, when Solomon <08010> had

finished <03615> (8763) the building <01129> (8800) of the house

<01004> of the LORD <03068>, and the king’s <04428> house

<01004>, and all Solomon’s <08010> desire <02837> which he was

pleased <02654> (8804) to do <06213> (8800),

1Ki 09:02 That the LORD <03068> appeared <07200> (8735) to

Solomon <08010> the second time <08145>, as he had appeared

<07200> (8738) unto him at Gibeon <01391>.

1Ki 09:03 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto him, I

have heard <08085> (8804) thy prayer <08605> and thy

supplication <08467>, that thou hast made <02603> (8694) before

<06440> me: I have hallowed <06942> (8689) this house <01004>,

which thou hast built <01129> (8804), to put <07760> (8800) my

name <08034> there for <05704> ever <05769>; and mine eyes

<05869> and mine heart <03820> shall be there perpetually

<03117>.

1Ki 09:04 And if thou wilt walk <03212> (8799) before <06440>

me, as David <01732> thy father <01> walked <01980> (8804), in

integrity <08537> of heart <03824>, and in uprightness <03476>,

to do <06213> (8800) according to all that I have commanded

<06680> (8765) thee, and wilt keep <08104> (8799) my statutes

<02706> and my judgments <04941>:

1Ki 09:05 Then I will establish <06965> (8689) the throne

<03678> of thy kingdom <04467> upon Israel <03478> for ever

<05769>, as I promised <01696> (8765) to David <01732> thy

father <01>, saying <0559> (8800), There shall not fail <03772>

(8735) thee a man <0376> upon the throne <03678> of Israel

<03478>.

1Ki 09:06 But if ye shall at all <07725> (8800) turn <07725>

(8799) from following <0310> me, ye or your children <01121>,

and will not keep <08104> (8799) my commandments <04687> and my

statutes <02708> which I have set <05414> (8804) before <06440>

you, but go <01980> (8804) and serve <05647> (8804) other <0312>

gods <0430>, and worship <07812> (8694) them:

1Ki 09:07 Then will I cut off <03772> (8689) Israel <03478> out

<06440> of the land <0127> which I have given <05414> (8804)

them; and this house <01004>, which I have hallowed <06942>

(8689) for my name <08034>, will I cast out <07971> (8762) of my

sight <06440>; and Israel <03478> shall be a proverb <04912> and

a byword <08148> among all people <05971>:

1Ki 09:08 And at this house <01004>, which is high <05945>,

every one that passeth <05674> (8802) by it shall be astonished

<08074> (8799), and shall hiss <08319> (8804); and they shall

say <0559> (8804), Why hath the LORD <03068> done <06213> (8804)

thus unto this land <0776>, and to this house <01004>?

1Ki 09:09 And they shall answer <0559> (8804), Because they

forsook <05800> (8804) the LORD <03068> their God <0430>, who

brought forth <03318> (8689) their fathers <01> out of the land

<0776> of Egypt <04714>, and have taken hold <02388> (8686) upon

other <0312> gods <0430>, and have worshipped <07812> (8691)

them, and served <05647> (8799) them: therefore hath the LORD

<03068> brought <0935> (8689) upon them all this evil <07451>.

1Ki 09:10 ¶ And it came to pass at the end <07097> of twenty

<06242> years <08141>, when Solomon <08010> had built <01129>

(8804) the two <08147> houses <01004>, the house <01004> of the

LORD <03068>, and the king’s <04428> house <01004>,

1Ki 09:11 (Now Hiram <02438> the king <04428> of Tyre <06865>

had furnished <05375> (8765) Solomon <08010> with cedar <0730>

trees <06086> and fir <01265> trees <06086>, and with gold

<02091>, according to all his desire <02656>,) that then <0227>

king <04428> Solomon <08010> gave <05414> (8799) Hiram <02438>

twenty <06242> cities <05892> in the land <0776> of Galilee

<01551>.

1Ki 09:12 And Hiram <02438> came out <03318> (8799) from Tyre

<06865> to see <07200> (8800) the cities <05892> which Solomon

<08010> had given <05414> (8804) him; and they pleased <03474>

(8804) <05869> him not.

1Ki 09:13 And he said <0559> (8799), What cities <05892> are

these which thou hast given <05414> (8804) me, my brother

<0251>? And he called <07121> (8799) them the land <0776> of

Cabul <03521> unto this day <03117>.

1Ki 09:14 And Hiram <02438> sent <07971> (8799) to the king

<04428> sixscore <03967> <06242> talents <03603> of gold <02091>.

1Ki 09:15 ¶ And this is the reason <01697> of the levy <04522>

which king <04428> Solomon <08010> raised <05927> (8689); for to

build <01129> (8800) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and

his own house <01004>, and Millo <04407>, and the wall <02346>

of Jerusalem <03389>, and Hazor <02674>, and Megiddo <04023>,

and Gezer <01507>.

1Ki 09:16 For Pharaoh <06547> king <04428> of Egypt <04714> had

gone up <05927> (8804), and taken <03920> (8799) Gezer <01507>,

and burnt <08313> (8799) it with fire <0784>, and slain <02026>

(8804) the Canaanites <03669> that dwelt <03427> (8802) in the

city <05892>, and given <05414> (8799) it for a present <07964>

unto his daughter <01323>, Solomon’s <08010> wife <0802>.

1Ki 09:17 And Solomon <08010> built <01129> (8799) Gezer

<01507>, and Bethhoron <01032> the nether <08481>,

1Ki 09:18 And Baalath <01191>, and Tadmor <08412> in the

wilderness <04057>, in the land <0776>,

1Ki 09:19 And all the cities <05892> of store <04543> that

Solomon <08010> had, and cities <05892> for his chariots <07393>,

and cities <05892> for his horsemen <06571>, and that <02837>

which Solomon <08010> desired <02836> (8804) to build <01129>

(8800) in Jerusalem <03389>, and in Lebanon <03844>, and in all

the land <0776> of his dominion <04475>.

1Ki 09:20 And all the people <05971> that were left <03498>

(8737) of the Amorites <0567>, Hittites <02850>, Perizzites

<06522>, Hivites <02340>, and Jebusites <02983>, which were not

of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>,

1Ki 09:21 Their children <01121> that were left <03498> (8738)

after <0310> them in the land <0776>, whom the children <01121>

of Israel <03478> also were not able <03201> (8804) utterly to

destroy <02763> (8687), upon those did Solomon <08010> levy

<05927> (8686) a tribute <04522> of bondservice <05647> (8802)

unto this day <03117>.

1Ki 09:22 But of the children <01121> of Israel <03478> did

Solomon <08010> make <05414> (8804) no bondmen <05650>: but they

were men <0582> of war <04421>, and his servants <05650>, and

his princes <08269>, and his captains <07991>, and rulers

<08269> of his chariots <07393>, and his horsemen <06571>.

1Ki 09:23 These were the chief <08269> of the officers <05324>

(8737) that were over Solomon’s <08010> work <04399>, five

<02568> hundred <03967> and fifty <02572>, which bare rule

<07287> (8802) over the people <05971> that wrought <06213>

(8804) in the work <04399>.

1Ki 09:24 But Pharaoh’s <06547> daughter <01323> came up

<05927> (8804) out of the city <05892> of David <01732> unto her

house <01004> which Solomon had built <01129> (8804) for her:

then did he build <01129> (8804) Millo <04407>.

1Ki 09:25 And three <07969> times <06471> in a year <08141> did

Solomon <08010> offer <05927> (8689) burnt offerings <05930> and

peace offerings <08002> upon the altar <04196> which he built

<01129> (8804) unto the LORD <03068>, and he burnt incense

<06999> (8687) upon the altar <04196> that was before <06440>

the LORD <03068>. So he finished <07999> (8765) the house

<01004>.

1Ki 09:26 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> made <06213> (8804)

a navy of ships <0590> in Eziongeber <06100>, which is beside

Eloth <0359>, on the shore <08193> of the Red <05488> sea

<03220>, in the land <0776> of Edom <0123>.

1Ki 09:27 And Hiram <02438> sent <07971> (8799) in the navy

<0590> his servants <05650>, shipmen <0582> <0591> that had

knowledge <03045> (8802) of the sea <03220>, with the servants

<05650> of Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 09:28 And they came <0935> (8799) to Ophir <0211>, and

fetched <03947> (8799) from thence gold <02091>, four <0702>

hundred <03967> and twenty <06242> talents <03603>, and brought

<0935> (8686) it to king <04428> Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 10:01 ¶ And when the queen <04436> of Sheba <07614> heard

<08085> (8802) of the fame <08088> of Solomon <08010> concerning

the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>, she came <0935> (8799) to

prove <05254> (8763) him with hard questions <02420>.

1Ki 10:02 And she came <0935> (8799) to Jerusalem <03389> with

a very <03966> great <03515> train <02428>, with camels <01581>

that bare <05375> (8802) spices <01314>, and very <03966> much

<07227> gold <02091>, and precious <03368> stones <068>: and

when she was come <0935> (8799) to Solomon <08010>, she communed

<01696> (8762) with him of all that was in her heart <03824>.

1Ki 10:03 And Solomon <08010> told <05046> (8686) her all her

questions <01697>: there was not any thing <01697> hid <05956>

(8737) from the king <04428>, which he told <05046> (8689) her

not.

1Ki 10:04 And when the queen <04436> of Sheba <07614> had seen

<07200> (8799) all Solomon’s <08010> wisdom <02451>, and the

house <01004> that he had built <01129> (8804),

1Ki 10:05 And the meat <03978> of his table <07979>, and the

sitting <04186> of his servants <05650>, and the attendance

<04612> of his ministers <08334> (8764), and their apparel

<04403>, and his cupbearers <08248> (8688), and his ascent

<05930> by which he went up <05927> (8799) unto the house

<01004> of the LORD <03068>; there was no more spirit <07307> in

her.

1Ki 10:06 And she said <0559> (8799) to the king <04428>, It

was a true <0571> report <01697> that I heard <08085> (8804) in

mine own land <0776> of thy acts <01697> and of thy wisdom

<02451>.

1Ki 10:07 Howbeit I believed <0539> (8689) not the words

<01697>, until I came <0935> (8804), and mine eyes <05869> had

seen <07200> (8799) it: and, behold, the half <02677> was not

told <05046> (8717) me: thy wisdom <02451> and prosperity

<02896> exceedeth <03254> (8689) the fame <08052> which I heard

<08085> (8804).

1Ki 10:08 Happy <0835> are thy men <0582>, happy <0835> are

these thy servants <05650>, which stand <05975> (8802)

continually <08548> before <06440> thee, and that hear <08085>

(8802) thy wisdom <02451>.

1Ki 10:09 Blessed <01288> (8803) be the LORD <03068> thy God

<0430>, which delighted <02654> (8804) in thee, to set <05414>

(8800) thee on the throne <03678> of Israel <03478>: because the

LORD <03068> loved <0160> Israel <03478> for ever <05769>,

therefore made <07760> (8799) he thee king <04428>, to do

<06213> (8800) judgment <04941> and justice <06666>.

1Ki 10:10 And she gave <05414> (8799) the king <04428> an

hundred <03967> and twenty <06242> talents <03603> of gold

<02091>, and of spices <01314> very <03966> great store <07235>

(8687), and precious <03368> stones <068>: there came <0935>

(8804) no more such <01931> abundance <07230> of spices <01314>

as these which the queen <04436> of Sheba <07614> gave <05414>

(8804) to king <04428> Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 10:11 And the navy <0590> also of Hiram <02438>, that

brought <05375> (8804) gold <02091> from Ophir <0211>, brought

in <0935> (8689) from Ophir <0211> great <03966> plenty <07235>

(8687) of almug <0484> trees <06086>, and precious <03368>

stones <068>.

1Ki 10:12 And the king <04428> made <06213> (8799) of the almug

<0484> trees <06086> pillars <04552> for the house <01004> of

the LORD <03068>, and for the king’s <04428> house <01004>,

harps <03658> also and psalteries <05035> for singers <07891>

(8802): there came <0935> (8804) no such almug <0484> trees

<06086>, nor were seen <07200> (8738) unto this day <03117>.

1Ki 10:13 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> gave <05414> (8804)

unto the queen <04436> of Sheba <07614> all her desire <02656>,

whatsoever she asked <07592> (8804), beside that which Solomon

<08010> gave <05414> (8804) her of his royal <04428> bounty

<03027>. So she turned <06437> (8799) and went <03212> (8799) to

her own country <0776>, she and her servants <05650>.

1Ki 10:14 ¶ Now the weight <04948> of gold <02091> that came

<0935> (8804) to Solomon <08010> in one <0259> year <08141> was

six <08337> hundred <03967> threescore <08346> and six <08337>

talents <03603> of gold <02091>,

1Ki 10:15 Beside that he had of the merchantmen <0582> <08446>

(8802), and of the traffick <04536> of the spice merchants

<07402> (8802), and of all the kings <04428> of Arabia <06153>,

and of the governors <06346> of the country <0776>.

1Ki 10:16 And king <04428> Solomon <08010> made <06213> (8799)

two hundred <03967> targets <06793> of beaten <07820> (8803)

gold <02091>: six <08337> hundred <03967> shekels of gold

<02091> went <05927> (8686) to one <0259> target <06793>.

1Ki 10:17 And he made three <07969> hundred <03967> shields

<04043> of beaten <07820> (8803) gold <02091>; three <07969>

pound <04488> of gold <02091> went <05927> (8686) to one <0259>

shield <04043>: and the king <04428> put <05414> (8799) them in

the house <01004> of the forest <03293> of Lebanon <03844>.

1Ki 10:18 Moreover the king <04428> made <06213> (8799) a great

<01419> throne <03678> of ivory <08127>, and overlaid <06823>

(8762) it with the best <06338> (8716) gold <02091>.

1Ki 10:19 The throne <03678> had six <08337> steps <04609>, and

the top <07218> of the throne <03678> was round <05696> behind

<0310>: and there were stays <03027> on either side on the place

<04725> of the seat <07675> (8800), and two <08147> lions <0738>

stood <05975> (8802) beside <0681> the stays <03027>.

1Ki 10:20 And twelve <08147> <06240> lions <0738> stood <05975>

(8802) there on the one side and on the other upon the six

<08337> steps <04609>: there was not the like <03651> made

<06213> (8738) in any kingdom <04467>.

1Ki 10:21 And all king <04428> Solomon’s <08010> drinking

<04945> vessels <03627> were of gold <02091>, and all the

vessels <03627> of the house <01004> of the forest <03293> of

Lebanon <03844> were of pure <05462> (8803) gold <02091>; none

were of silver <03701>: it was nothing <03972> accounted <02803>

(8737) of in the days <03117> of Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 10:22 For the king <04428> had at sea <03220> a navy <0590>

of Tharshish <08659> with the navy <0590> of Hiram <02438>: once

<0259> in three <07969> years <08141> came <0935> (8799) the

navy <0590> of Tharshish <08659>, bringing <05375> (8802) gold

<02091>, and silver <03701>, ivory <08143>, and apes <06971>,

and peacocks <08500>.

1Ki 10:23 So king <04428> Solomon <08010> exceeded <01431>

(8799) all the kings <04428> of the earth <0776> for riches

<06239> and for wisdom <02451>.

1Ki 10:24 And all the earth <0776> sought <01245> (8764) to

<06440> Solomon <08010>, to hear <08085> (8800) his wisdom

<02451>, which God <0430> had put <05414> (8804) in his heart

<03820>.

1Ki 10:25 And they brought <0935> (8688) every man <0376> his

present <04503>, vessels <03627> of silver <03701>, and vessels

<03627> of gold <02091>, and garments <08008>, and armour

<05402>, and spices <01314>, horses <05483>, and mules <06505>,

a rate <01697> year <08141> by year <08141>.

1Ki 10:26 And Solomon <08010> gathered together <0622> (8799)

chariots <07393> and horsemen <06571>: and he had a thousand

<0505> and four <0702> hundred <03967> chariots <07393>, and

twelve <08147> <06240> thousand <0505> horsemen <06571>, whom he

bestowed <05148> (8686) in the cities <05892> for chariots

<07393>, and with the king <04428> at Jerusalem <03389>.

1Ki 10:27 And the king <04428> made <05414> (8799) silver

<03701> to be in Jerusalem <03389> as stones <068>, and cedars

<0730> made <05414> (8804) he to be as the sycomore trees

<08256> that are in the vale <08219>, for abundance <07230>.

1Ki 10:28 And Solomon <08010> had horses <05483> brought

<04161> out of Egypt <04714>, and linen yarn <04723>: the king’s

<04428> merchants <05503> (8802) received <03947> (8799) the

linen yarn <04723> at a price <04242>.

1Ki 10:29 And a chariot <04818> came up <05927> (8799) and went

out <03318> (8799) of Egypt <04714> for six <08337> hundred

<03967> shekels of silver <03701>, and an horse <05483> for an

hundred <03967> and fifty <02572>: and so for all the kings

<04428> of the Hittites <02850>, and for the kings <04428> of

Syria <0758>, did they bring them out <03318> (8686) by their

means <03027>.

1Ki 11:01 ¶ But king <04428> Solomon <08010> loved <0157> (8804)

many <07227> strange <05237> women <0802>, together with the

daughter <01323> of Pharaoh <06547>, women of the Moabites

<04125>, Ammonites <05984>, Edomites <0130>, Zidonians <06722>,

and Hittites <02850>;

1Ki 11:02 Of the nations <01471> concerning which the LORD

<03068> said <0559> (8804) unto the children <01121> of Israel

<03478>, Ye shall not go in <0935> (8799) to them, neither shall

they come in <0935> (8799) unto you: for surely <0403> they will

turn away <05186> (8686) your heart <03824> after <0310> their

gods <0430>: Solomon <08010> clave <01692> (8804) unto these in

love <0157> (8800).

1Ki 11:03 And he had seven <07651> hundred <03967> wives <0802>,

princesses <08282>, and three <07969> hundred <03967>

concubines <06370>: and his wives <0802> turned away <05186>

(8686) his heart <03820>.

1Ki 11:04 For it came to pass, when <06256> Solomon <08010> was

old <02209>, that his wives <0802> turned away <05186> (8689)

his heart <03824> after <0310> other <0312> gods <0430>: and his

heart <03824> was not perfect <08003> with the LORD <03068> his

God <0430>, as was the heart <03824> of David <01732> his father

<01>.

1Ki 11:05 For Solomon <08010> went <03212> (8799) after <0310>

Ashtoreth <06253> the goddess <0430> of the Zidonians <06722>,

and after <0310> Milcom <04445> the abomination <08251> of the

Ammonites <05984>.

1Ki 11:06 And Solomon <08010> did <06213> (8799) evil <07451>

in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and went not fully

<04390> (8765) after <0310> the LORD <03068>, as did David

<01732> his father <01>.

1Ki 11:07 Then did Solomon <08010> build <01129> (8799) an high

place <01116> for Chemosh <03645>, the abomination <08251> of

Moab <04124>, in the hill <02022> that is before <06440>

Jerusalem <03389>, and for Molech <04432>, the abomination

<08251> of the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>.

1Ki 11:08 And likewise did <06213> (8804) he for all his

strange <05237> wives <0802>, which burnt incense <06999> (8688)

and sacrificed <02076> (8764) unto their gods <0430>.

1Ki 11:09 ¶ And the LORD <03068> was angry <0599> (8691) with

Solomon <08010>, because his heart <03824> was turned <05186>

(8804) from the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, which

had appeared <07200> (8738) unto him twice <06471>,

1Ki 11:10 And had commanded <06680> (8765) him concerning this

thing <01697>, that he should not go <03212> (8800) after <0310>

other <0312> gods <0430>: but he kept <08104> (8804) not that

which the LORD <03068> commanded <06680> (8765).

1Ki 11:11 Wherefore the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto

Solomon <08010>, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou

hast not kept <08104> (8804) my covenant <01285> and my statutes

<02708>, which I have commanded <06680> (8765) thee, I will

surely <07167> (8800) rend <07167> (8799) the kingdom <04467>

from thee, and will give <05414> (8804) it to thy servant

<05650>.

1Ki 11:12 Notwithstanding in thy days <03117> I will not do

<06213> (8799) it for David <01732> thy father’s <01> sake: but

I will rend <07167> (8799) it out of the hand <03027> of thy son

<01121>.

1Ki 11:13 Howbeit <07535> I will not rend away <07167> (8799)

all the kingdom <04467>; but will give <05414> (8799) one <0259>

tribe <07626> to thy son <01121> for David <01732> my servant’s

<05650> sake, and for Jerusalem’s <03389> sake which I have

chosen <0977> (8804).

1Ki 11:14 ¶ And the LORD <03068> stirred up <06965> (8686) an

adversary <07854> unto Solomon <08010>, Hadad <01908> the

Edomite <0130>: he was of the king’s <04428> seed <02233> in

Edom <0123>.

1Ki 11:15 For it came to pass, when David <01732> was in Edom

<0123>, and Joab <03097> the captain <08269> of the host <06635>

was gone up <05927> (8800) to bury <06912> (8763) the slain

<02491>, after he had smitten <05221> (8686) every male <02145>

in Edom <0123>;

1Ki 11:16 (For six <08337> months <02320> did Joab <03097>

remain <03427> (8804) there with all Israel <03478>, until he

had cut off <03772> (8689) every male <02145> in Edom <0123>:)

1Ki 11:17 That Hadad <0111> fled <01272> (8799), he and certain

<0582> Edomites <0130> of his father’s <01> servants <05650>

with him, to go <0935> (8800) into Egypt <04714>; Hadad <01908>

being yet a little <06996> child <05288>.

1Ki 11:18 And they arose <06965> (8799) out of Midian <04080>,

and came <0935> (8799) to Paran <06290>: and they took <03947>

(8799) men <0582> with them out of Paran <06290>, and they came

<0935> (8799) to Egypt <04714>, unto Pharaoh <06547> king

<04428> of Egypt <04714>; which gave <05414> (8799) him an house

<01004>, and appointed <0559> (8804) him victuals <03899>, and

gave <05414> (8804) him land <0776>.

1Ki 11:19 And Hadad <01908> found <04672> (8799) great <03966>

favour <02580> in the sight <05869> of Pharaoh <06547>, so that

he gave <05414> (8799) him to wife <0802> the sister <0269> of

his own wife <0802>, the sister <0269> of Tahpenes <08472> the

queen <01377>.

1Ki 11:20 And the sister <0269> of Tahpenes <08472> bare

<03205> (8799) him Genubath <01592> his son <01121>, whom

Tahpenes <08472> weaned <01580> (8799) in <08432> Pharaoh’s

<06547> house <01004>: and Genubath <01592> was in Pharaoh’s

<06547> household <01004> among <08432> the sons <01121> of

Pharaoh <06547>.

1Ki 11:21 And when Hadad <01908> heard <08085> (8804) in Egypt

<04714> that David <01732> slept <07901> (8804) with his fathers

<01>, and that Joab <03097> the captain <08269> of the host

<06635> was dead <04191> (8804), Hadad <01908> said <0559>

(8799) to Pharaoh <06547>, Let me depart <07971> (8761), that I

may go <03212> (8799) to mine own country <0776>.

1Ki 11:22 Then Pharaoh <06547> said <0559> (8799) unto him, But

what hast thou lacked <02638> with me, that, behold, thou

seekest <01245> (8764) to go <03212> (8800) to thine own country

<0776>? And he answered <0559> (8799), Nothing: howbeit let me

go <07971> (8762) in any wise <07971> (8763).

1Ki 11:23 And God <0430> stirred him up <06965> (8686) another

adversary <07854>, Rezon <07331> the son <01121> of Eliadah

<0450>, which fled <01272> (8804) from his lord <0113> Hadadezer

<01909> king <04428> of Zobah <06678>:

1Ki 11:24 And he gathered <06908> (8799) men <0582> unto him,

and became captain <08269> over a band <01416>, when David

<01732> slew <02026> (8800) them of Zobah: and they went <03212>

(8799) to Damascus <01834>, and dwelt <03427> (8799) therein,

and reigned <04427> (8799) in Damascus <01834>.

1Ki 11:25 And he was an adversary <07854> to Israel <03478> all

the days <03117> of Solomon <08010>, beside the mischief <07451>

that Hadad <01908> did: and he abhorred <06973> (8799) Israel

<03478>, and reigned <04427> (8799) over Syria <0758>.

1Ki 11:26 ¶ And Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat

<05028>, an Ephrathite <0673> of Zereda <06868>, Solomon’s

<08010> servant <05650>, whose mother’s <0517> name <08034> was

Zeruah <06871>, a widow <0490> woman <0802>, even he lifted up

<07311> (8686) his hand <03027> against the king <04428>.

1Ki 11:27 And this was the cause <01697> that he lifted up

<07311> (8689) his hand <03027> against the king <04428>:

Solomon <08010> built <01129> (8804) Millo <04407>, and repaired

<05462> (8804) the breaches <06556> of the city <05892> of David

<01732> his father <01>.

1Ki 11:28 And the man <0376> Jeroboam <03379> was a mighty man

<01368> of valour <02428>: and Solomon <08010> seeing <07200>

(8799) the young man <05288> that he was industrious <06213>

(8802) <04399>, he made him ruler <06485> (8686) over all the

charge <05447> of the house <01004> of Joseph <03130>.

1Ki 11:29 And it came to pass at that time <06256> when

Jeroboam <03379> went out <03318> (8804) of Jerusalem <03389>,

that the prophet <05030> Ahijah <0281> the Shilonite <07888>

found <04672> (8799) him in the way <01870>; and he had clad

<03680> (8693) himself with a new <02319> garment <08008>; and

they two <08147> were alone in the field <07704>:

1Ki 11:30 And Ahijah <0281> caught <08610> (8799) the new

<02319> garment <08008> that was on him, and rent <07167> (8799)

it in twelve <08147> <06240> pieces <07168>:

1Ki 11:31 And he said <0559> (8799) to Jeroboam <03379>, Take

<03947> (8798) thee ten <06235> pieces <07168>: for thus saith

<0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>,

Behold, I will rend <07167> (8802) the kingdom <04467> out of

the hand <03027> of Solomon <08010>, and will give <05414>

(8804) ten <06235> tribes <07626> to thee:

1Ki 11:32 (But he shall have one <0259> tribe <07626> for my

servant <05650> David’s <01732> sake, and for Jerusalem’s

<03389> sake, the city <05892> which I have chosen <0977> (8804)

out of all the tribes <07626> of Israel <03478>:)

1Ki 11:33 Because that they have forsaken <05800> (8804) me,

and have worshipped <07812> (8691) Ashtoreth <06253> the goddess

<0430> of the Zidonians <06722>, Chemosh <03645> the god <0430>

of the Moabites <04124>, and Milcom <04445> the god <0430> of

the children <01121> of Ammon <05983>, and have not walked

<01980> (8804) in my ways <01870>, to do <06213> (8800) that

which is right <03477> in mine eyes <05869>, and to keep my

statutes <02708> and my judgments <04941>, as did David <01732>

his father <01>.

1Ki 11:34 Howbeit I will not take <03947> (8799) the whole

kingdom <04467> out of his hand <03027>: but I will make <07896>

(8799) him prince <05387> all the days <03117> of his life

<02416> for David <01732> my servant’s <05650> sake, whom I

chose <0977> (8804), because he kept <08104> (8804) my

commandments <04687> and my statutes <02708>:

1Ki 11:35 But I will take <03947> (8804) the kingdom <04410>

out of his son’s <01121> hand <03027>, and will give <05414>

(8804) it unto thee, even ten <06235> tribes <07626>.

1Ki 11:36 And unto his son <01121> will I give <05414> (8799)

one <0259> tribe <07626>, that David <01732> my servant <05650>

may have a light <05216> alway <03117> before <06440> me in

Jerusalem <03389>, the city <05892> which I have chosen <0977>

(8804) me to put <07760> (8800) my name <08034> there.

1Ki 11:37 And I will take <03947> (8799) thee, and thou shalt

reign <04427> (8804) according to all that thy soul <05315>

desireth <0183> (8762), and shalt be king <04428> over Israel

<03478>.

1Ki 11:38 And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken <08085> (8799)

unto all that I command <06680> (8762) thee, and wilt walk

<01980> (8804) in my ways <01870>, and do <06213> (8804) that is

right <03477> in my sight <05869>, to keep <08104> (8800) my

statutes <02708> and my commandments <04687>, as David <01732>

my servant <05650> did <06213> (8804); that I will be with thee,

and build <01129> (8804) thee a sure <0539> (8737) house <01004>,

as I built <01129> (8804) for David <01732>, and will give

<05414> (8804) Israel <03478> unto thee.

1Ki 11:39 And I will for this afflict <06031> (8762) the seed

<02233> of David <01732>, but not for ever <03117>.

1Ki 11:40 Solomon <08010> sought <01245> (8762) therefore to

kill <04191> (8687) Jeroboam <03379>. And Jeroboam <03379> arose

<06965> (8799), and fled <01272> (8799) into Egypt <04714>, unto

Shishak <07895> king <04428> of Egypt <04714>, and was in Egypt

<04714> until the death <04194> of Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 11:41 ¶ And the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Solomon

<08010>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), and his wisdom

<02451>, are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612>

of the acts <01697> of Solomon <08010>?

1Ki 11:42 And the time <03117> that Solomon <08010> reigned

<04427> (8804) in Jerusalem <03389> over all Israel <03478> was

forty <0705> years <08141>.

1Ki 11:43 And Solomon <08010> slept <07901> (8799) with his

fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in the city <05892>

of David <01732> his father <01>: and Rehoboam <07346> his son

<01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.

1Ki 12:01 ¶ And Rehoboam <07346> went <03212> (8799) to Shechem

<07927>: for all Israel <03478> were come <0935> (8804) to

Shechem <07927> to make him king <04427> (8687).

1Ki 12:02 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam <03379> the son

<01121> of Nebat <05028>, who was yet in Egypt <04714>, heard

<08085> (8800) of it, (for he was fled <01272> (8804) from the

presence <06440> of king <04428> Solomon <08010>, and Jeroboam

<03379> dwelt <03427> (8799) in Egypt <04714>;)

1Ki 12:03 That they sent <07971> (8799) and called <07121>

(8799) him. And Jeroboam <03379> and all the congregation

<06951> of Israel <03478> came <0935> (8799), and spake <01696>

(8762) unto Rehoboam <07346>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 12:04 Thy father <01> made <07185> <00> our yoke <05923>

grievous <07185> (8689): now therefore make thou the grievous

<07186> service <05656> of thy father <01>, and his heavy

<03515> yoke <05923> which he put <05414> (8804) upon us,

lighter <07043> (8685), and we will serve <05647> (8799) thee.

1Ki 12:05 And he said <0559> (8799) unto them, Depart <03212>

(8798) yet for three <07969> days <03117>, then come again

<07725> (8798) to me. And the people <05971> departed <03212>

(8799).

1Ki 12:06 And king <04428> Rehoboam <07346> consulted <03289>

(8735) with the old men <02205>, that stood <05975> (8802)

before <06440> Solomon <08010> his father <01> while he yet

lived <02416>, and said <0559> (8800), How do ye advise <03289>

(8737) that I may <07725> (8687) answer <01697> this people

<05971>?

1Ki 12:07 And they spake <01696> (8762) unto him, saying <0559>

(8800), If thou wilt be a servant <05650> unto this people

<05971> this day <03117>, and wilt serve <05647> (8804) them,

and answer <06030> (8804) them, and speak <01696> (8765) good

<02896> words <01697> to them, then they will be thy servants

<05650> for ever <03117>.

1Ki 12:08 But he forsook <05800> (8799) the counsel <06098> of

the old men <02205>, which they had given <03289> (8804) him,

and consulted <03289> (8735) with the young men <03206> that

were grown up <01431> (8804) with him, and which stood <05975>

(8802) before <06440> him:

1Ki 12:09 And he said <0559> (8799) unto them, What counsel

give <03289> (8737) ye that we may <07725> (8686) answer <01697>

this people <05971>, who have spoken <01696> (8765) to me,

saying <0559> (8800), Make <07043> <00> the yoke <05923> which

thy father <01> did put <05414> (8804) upon us lighter <07043>

(8685)?

1Ki 12:10 And the young men <03206> that were grown up <01431>

(8804) with him spake <01696> (8762) unto him, saying <0559>

(8800), Thus shalt thou speak <0559> (8799) unto this people

<05971> that spake <01696> (8765) unto thee, saying <0559>

(8800), Thy father <01> made <03513> <00> our yoke <05923> heavy

<03513> (8689), but make thou it lighter <07043> (8685) unto us;

thus shalt thou say <01696> (8762) unto them, My little <06995>

finger shall be thicker <05666> (8804) than my father’s <01>

loins <04975>.

1Ki 12:11 And now whereas my father <01> did lade <06006>

(8689) you with a heavy <03515> yoke <05923>, I will add <03254>

(8686) to your yoke <05923>: my father <01> hath chastised

<03256> (8765) you with whips <07752>, but I will chastise

<03256> (8762) you with scorpions <06137>.

1Ki 12:12 So Jeroboam <03379> and all the people <05971> came

<0935> (8799) to Rehoboam <07346> the third <07992> day <03117>,

as the king <04428> had appointed <01696> (8765), saying <0559>

(8800), Come to me again <07725> (8798) the third <07992> day

<03117>.

1Ki 12:13 And the king <04428> answered <06030> (8799) the

people <05971> roughly <07186>, and forsook <05800> (8799) the

old men’s <02205> counsel <06098> that they gave <03289> (8804)

him;

1Ki 12:14 And spake <01696> (8762) to them after the counsel

<06098> of the young men <03206>, saying <0559> (8800), My

father <01> made <03513> <00> your yoke <05923> heavy <03513>

(8689), and I will add <03254> (8686) to your yoke <05923>: my

father <01> also chastised <03256> (8765) you with whips <07752>,

but I will chastise <03256> (8762) you with scorpions <06137>.

1Ki 12:15 Wherefore the king <04428> hearkened <08085> (8804)

not unto the people <05971>; for the cause <05438> was from the

LORD <03068>, that he might perform <06965> (8687) his saying

<01697>, which the LORD <03068> spake <01696> (8765) by <03027>

Ahijah <0281> the Shilonite <07888> unto Jeroboam <03379> the

son <01121> of Nebat <05028>.

1Ki 12:16 ¶ So <07725> (8686) when all Israel <03478> saw

<07200> (8799) that the king <04428> hearkened <08085> (8804)

not unto them, the people <05971> answered <01697> the king

<04428>, saying <0559> (8800), What portion <02506> have we in

David <01732>? neither have we inheritance <05159> in the son

<01121> of Jesse <03448>: to your tents <0168>, O Israel <03478>:

now see <07200> (8798) to thine own house <01004>, David

<01732>. So Israel <03478> departed <03212> (8799) unto their

tents <0168>.

1Ki 12:17 But as for the children <01121> of Israel <03478>

which dwelt <03427> (8802) in the cities <05892> of Judah

<03063>, Rehoboam <07346> reigned <04427> (8799) over them.

1Ki 12:18 Then king <04428> Rehoboam <07346> sent <07971>

(8799) Adoram <0151>, who was over the tribute <04522>; and all

Israel <03478> stoned <07275> (8799) him with stones <068>, that

he died <04191> (8799). Therefore king <04428> Rehoboam <07346>

made speed <0553> (8694) to get him up <05927> (8800) to his

chariot <04818>, to flee <05127> (8800) to Jerusalem <03389>.

1Ki 12:19 So Israel <03478> rebelled <06586> (8799) against the

house <01004> of David <01732> unto this day <03117>.

1Ki 12:20 And it came to pass, when all Israel <03478> heard

<08085> (8800) that Jeroboam <03379> was come again <07725>

(8804), that they sent <07971> (8799) and called <07121> (8799)

him unto the congregation <05712>, and made him king <04427>

(8686) over all Israel <03478>: there was none that followed

<0310> the house <01004> of David <01732>, but <02108> the tribe

<07626> of Judah <03063> only.

1Ki 12:21 And when Rehoboam <07346> was come <0935> (8799) to

Jerusalem <03389>, he assembled <06950> (8686) all the house

<01004> of Judah <03063>, with the tribe <07626> of Benjamin

<01144>, an hundred <03967> and fourscore <08084> thousand

<0505> chosen men <0977> (8803), which were warriors <06213>

(8802) <04421>, to fight <03898> (8736) against the house

<01004> of Israel <03478>, to bring <07725> <00> the kingdom

<04410> again <07725> (8687) to Rehoboam <07346> the son <01121>

of Solomon <08010>.

1Ki 12:22 But the word <01697> of God <0430> came unto Shemaiah

<08098> the man <0376> of God <0430>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 12:23 Speak <0559> (8798) unto Rehoboam <07346>, the son

<01121> of Solomon <08010>, king <04428> of Judah <03063>, and

unto all the house <01004> of Judah <03063> and Benjamin <01144>,

and to the remnant <03499> of the people <05971>, saying <0559>

(8800),

1Ki 12:24 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, Ye shall

not go up <05927> (8799), nor fight <03898> (8735) against your

brethren <0251> the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: return

<07725> (8798) every man <0376> to his house <01004>; for this

thing <01697> is <01961> (8738) from me. They hearkened <08085>

(8799) therefore to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, and

returned <07725> (8799) to depart <03212> (8800), according to

the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 12:25 ¶ Then Jeroboam <03379> built <01129> (8799) Shechem

<07927> in mount <02022> Ephraim <0669>, and dwelt <03427>

(8799) therein; and went out <03318> (8799) from thence, and

built <01129> (8799) Penuel <06439>.

1Ki 12:26 And Jeroboam <03379> said <0559> (8799) in his heart

<03820>, Now shall the kingdom <04467> return <07725> (8799) to

the house <01004> of David <01732>:

1Ki 12:27 If this people <05971> go up <05927> (8799) to do

<06213> (8800) sacrifice <02077> in the house <01004> of the

LORD <03068> at Jerusalem <03389>, then shall the heart <03820>

of this people <05971> turn again <07725> (8804) unto their lord

<0113>, even unto Rehoboam <07346> king <04428> of Judah <03063>,

and they shall kill <02026> (8804) me, and go again <07725>

(8804) to Rehoboam <07346> king <04428> of Judah <03063>.

1Ki 12:28 Whereupon the king <04428> took counsel <03289>

(8735), and made <06213> (8799) two <08147> calves <05695> of

gold <02091>, and said <0559> (8799) unto them, It is too much

<07227> for you to go up <05927> (8800) to Jerusalem <03389>:

behold thy gods <0430>, O Israel <03478>, which brought thee up

<05927> (8689) out of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>.

1Ki 12:29 And he set <07760> (8799) the one <0259> in Bethel

<01008>, and the other <0259> put <05414> (8804) he in Dan

<01835>.

1Ki 12:30 And this thing <01697> became a sin <02403>: for the

people <05971> went <03212> (8799) to worship before <06440> the

one <0259>, even unto Dan <01835>.

1Ki 12:31 And he made <06213> (8799) an house <01004> of high

places <01116>, and made <06213> (8799) priests <03548> of the

lowest <07098> of the people <05971>, which were not of the sons

<01121> of Levi <03878>.

1Ki 12:32 And Jeroboam <03379> ordained <06213> (8799) a feast

<02282> in the eighth <08066> month <02320>, on the fifteenth

<02568> <06240> day <03117> of the month <02320>, like unto the

feast <02282> that is in Judah <03063>, and he offered <05927>

(8686) upon the altar <04196>. So did <06213> (8804) he in

Bethel <01008>, sacrificing <02076> (8763) unto the calves

<05695> that he had made <06213> (8804): and he placed <05975>

(8689) in Bethel <01008> the priests <03548> of the high places

<01116> which he had made <06213> (8804).

1Ki 12:33 So he offered <05927> (8686) upon the altar <04196>

which he had made <06213> (8804) in Bethel <01008> the fifteenth

<02568> <06240> day <03117> of the eighth <08066> month <02320>,

even in the month <02320> which he had devised <0908> (8804) of

his own heart <03820>; and ordained <06213> (8799) a feast

<02282> unto the children <01121> of Israel <03478>: and he

offered <05927> (8686) upon the altar <04196>, and burnt incense

<06999> (8687).

1Ki 13:01 ¶ And, behold, there came <0935> (8804) a man <0376>

of God <0430> out of Judah <03063> by the word <01697> of the

LORD <03068> unto Bethel <01008>: and Jeroboam <03379> stood

<05975> (8802) by the altar <04196> to burn incense <06999>

(8687).

1Ki 13:02 And he cried <07121> (8799) against the altar <04196>

in the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, and said <0559> (8799),

O altar <04196>, altar <04196>, thus saith <0559> (8804) the

LORD <03068>; Behold, a child <01121> shall be born <03205>

(8737) unto the house <01004> of David <01732>, Josiah <02977>

by name <08034>; and upon thee shall he offer <02076> (8804) the

priests <03548> of the high places <01116> that burn incense

<06999> (8688) upon thee, and men’s <0120> bones <06106> shall

be burnt <08313> (8799) upon thee.

1Ki 13:03 And he gave <05414> (8804) a sign <04159> the same

day <03117>, saying <0559> (8800), This is the sign <04159>

which the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765); Behold, the

altar <04196> shall be rent <07167> (8738), and the ashes

<01880> that are upon it shall be poured out <08210> (8738).

1Ki 13:04 And it came to pass, when king <04428> Jeroboam

<03379> heard <08085> (8800) the saying <01697> of the man

<0376> of God <0430>, which had cried <07121> (8804) against the

altar <04196> in Bethel <01008>, that he put forth <07971>

(8799) his hand <03027> from the altar <04196>, saying <0559>

(8800), Lay hold <08610> (8798) on him. And his hand <03027>,

which he put forth <07971> (8804) against him, dried up <03001>

(8799), so that he could <03201> (8804) not pull it in again

<07725> (8687) to him.

1Ki 13:05 The altar <04196> also was rent <07167> (8738), and

the ashes <01880> poured out <08210> (8735) from the altar

<04196>, according to the sign <04159> which the man <0376> of

God <0430> had given <05414> (8804) by the word <01697> of the

LORD <03068>.

1Ki 13:06 And the king <04428> answered <06030> (8799) and said

<0559> (8799) unto the man <0376> of God <0430>, Intreat <02470>

(8761) now the face <06440> of the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>,

and pray <06419> (8690) for me, that my hand <03027> may be

restored me again <07725> (8799). And the man <0376> of God

<0430> besought <02470> (8762) <06440> the LORD <03068>, and the

king’s <04428> hand <03027> was restored him again <07725>

(8799), and became as it was before <07223>.

1Ki 13:07 And the king <04428> said <01696> (8762) unto the man

<0376> of God <0430>, Come <0935> (8798) home <01004> with me,

and refresh <05582> (8798) thyself, and I will give <05414>

(8799) thee a reward <04991>.

1Ki 13:08 And the man <0376> of God <0430> said <0559> (8799)

unto the king <04428>, If thou wilt give <05414> (8799) me half

<02677> thine house <01004>, I will not go in <0935> (8799) with

thee, neither will I eat <0398> (8799) bread <03899> nor drink

<08354> (8799) water <04325> in this place <04725>:

1Ki 13:09 For so was it charged <06680> (8765) me by the word

<01697> of the LORD <03068>, saying <0559> (8800), Eat <0398>

(8799) no bread <03899>, nor drink <08354> (8799) water <04325>,

nor turn again <07725> (8799) by the same way <01870> that thou

camest <01980> (8804).

1Ki 13:10 So he went <03212> (8799) another <0312> way <01870>,

and returned <07725> (8804) not by the way <01870> that he came

<0935> (8804) to Bethel <01008>.

1Ki 13:11 ¶ Now there dwelt <03427> (8802) an <0259> old <02205>

prophet <05030> in Bethel <01008>; and his sons <01121> came

<0935> (8799) and told <05608> (8762) him all the works <04639>

that the man <0376> of God <0430> had done <06213> (8804) that

day <03117> in Bethel <01008>: the words <01697> which he had

spoken <01696> (8765) unto the king <04428>, them they told

<05608> (8762) also to their father <01>.

1Ki 13:12 And their father <01> said <01696> (8762) unto them,

What way <01870> went <01980> (8804) he? For his sons <01121>

had seen <07200> (8799) what <0335> way <01870> the man <0376>

of God <0430> went <01980> (8804), which came <0935> (8804) from

Judah <03063>.

1Ki 13:13 And he said <0559> (8799) unto his sons <01121>,

Saddle <02280> (8798) me the ass <02543>. So they saddled

<02280> (8799) him the ass <02543>: and he rode <07392> (8799)

thereon,

1Ki 13:14 And went <03212> (8799) after <0310> the man <0376>

of God <0430>, and found <04672> (8799) him sitting <03427>

(8802) under an oak <0424>: and he said <0559> (8799) unto him,

Art thou the man <0376> of God <0430> that camest <0935> (8804)

from Judah <03063>? And he said <0559> (8799), I am.

1Ki 13:15 Then he said <0559> (8799) unto him, Come <03212>

(8798) home <01004> with me, and eat <0398> (8798) bread <03899>.

1Ki 13:16 And he said <0559> (8799), I may <03201> (8799) not

return <07725> (8800) with thee, nor go in <0935> (8800) with

thee: neither will I eat <0398> (8799) bread <03899> nor drink

<08354> (8799) water <04325> with thee in this place <04725>:

1Ki 13:17 For it was said <01697> to me by the word <01697> of

the LORD <03068>, Thou shalt eat <0398> (8799) no bread <03899>

nor drink <08354> (8799) water <04325> there, nor turn again

<07725> (8799) to go <03212> (8800) by the way <01870> that thou

camest <01980> (8804).

1Ki 13:18 He said <0559> (8799) unto him, I am a prophet

<05030> also as thou art; and an angel <04397> spake <01696>

(8765) unto me by the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, saying

<0559> (8800), Bring him back <07725> (8685) with thee into

thine house <01004>, that he may eat <0398> (8799) bread <03899>

and drink <08354> (8799) water <04325>. But he lied <03584>

(8765) unto him.

1Ki 13:19 So he went back <07725> (8799) with him, and did eat

<0398> (8799) bread <03899> in his house <01004>, and drank

<08354> (8799) water <04325>.

1Ki 13:20 And it came to pass, as they sat <03427> (8802) at

the table <07979>, that the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>

came unto the prophet <05030> that brought him back <07725>

(8689):

1Ki 13:21 And he cried <07121> (8799) unto the man <0376> of

God <0430> that came <0935> (8804) from Judah <03063>, saying

<0559> (8800), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>,

Forasmuch as <03282> thou hast disobeyed <04784> (8804) the

mouth <06310> of the LORD <03068>, and hast not kept <08104>

(8804) the commandment <04687> which the LORD <03068> thy God

<0430> commanded <06680> (8765) thee,

1Ki 13:22 But camest back <07725> (8799), and hast eaten <0398>

(8799) bread <03899> and drunk <08354> (8799) water <04325> in

the place <04725>, of the which the LORD did say <01696> (8765)

to thee, Eat <0398> (8799) no bread <03899>, and drink <08354>

(8799) no water <04325>; thy carcase <05038> shall not come

<0935> (8799) unto the sepulchre <06913> of thy fathers <01>.

1Ki 13:23 ¶ And it came to pass, after <0310> he had eaten

<0398> (8800) bread <03899>, and after <0310> he had drunk

<08354> (8800), that he saddled <02280> (8799) for him the ass

<02543>, to wit, for the prophet <05030> whom he had brought

back <07725> (8689).

1Ki 13:24 And when he was gone <03212> (8799), a lion <0738>

met <04672> (8799) him by the way <01870>, and slew <04191>

(8686) him: and his carcase <05038> was cast <07993> (8716) in

the way <01870>, and the ass <02543> stood <05975> (8802) by

<0681> it, the lion <0738> also stood <05975> (8802) by the

carcase <05038>.

1Ki 13:25 And, behold, men <0582> passed by <05674> (8802), and

saw <07200> (8799) the carcase <05038> cast <07993> (8716) in

the way <01870>, and the lion <0738> standing <05975> (8802) by

<0681> the carcase <05038>: and they came <0935> (8799) and told

<01696> (8762) it in the city <05892> where the old <02205>

prophet <05030> dwelt <03427> (8802).

1Ki 13:26 And when the prophet <05030> that brought him back

<07725> (8689) from the way <01870> heard <08085> (8799) thereof,

he said <0559> (8799), It is the man <0376> of God <0430>, who

was disobedient <04784> (8804) unto the word <06310> of the LORD

<03068>: therefore the LORD <03068> hath delivered <05414>

(8799) him unto the lion <0738>, which hath torn <07665> (8799)

him, and slain <04191> (8686) him, according to the word <01697>

of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) unto him.

1Ki 13:27 And he spake <01696> (8762) to his sons <01121>,

saying <0559> (8800), Saddle <02280> (8798) me the ass <02543>.

And they saddled <02280> (8799) him.

1Ki 13:28 And he went <03212> (8799) and found <04672> (8799)

his carcase <05038> cast <07993> (8716) in the way <01870>, and

the ass <02543> and the lion <0738> standing <05975> (8802) by

<0681> the carcase <05038>: the lion <0738> had not eaten <0398>

(8804) the carcase <05038>, nor torn <07665> (8804) the ass

<02543>.

1Ki 13:29 And the prophet <05030> took up <05375> (8799) the

carcase <05038> of the man <0376> of God <0430>, and laid

<03240> (8686) it upon the ass <02543>, and brought it back

<07725> (8686): and the old <02205> prophet <05030> came <0935>

(8799) to the city <05892>, to mourn <05594> (8800) and to bury

<06912> (8800) him.

1Ki 13:30 And he laid <03240> (8686) his carcase <05038> in his

own grave <06913>; and they mourned <05594> (8799) over him,

saying, Alas <01945>, my brother <0251>!

1Ki 13:31 And it came to pass, after <0310> he had buried

<06912> (8800) him, that he spake <0559> (8799) to his sons

<01121>, saying <0559> (8800), When I am dead <04191> (8800),

then bury <06912> (8804) me in the sepulchre <06913> wherein the

man <0376> of God <0430> is buried <06912> (8803); lay <03240>

(8685) my bones <06106> beside <0681> his bones <06106>:

1Ki 13:32 For the saying <01697> which he cried <07121> (8804)

by the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> against the altar

<04196> in Bethel <01008>, and against all the houses <01004> of

the high places <01116> which are in the cities <05892> of

Samaria <08111>, shall surely come to pass.

1Ki 13:33 After <0310> this thing <01697> Jeroboam <03379>

returned <07725> (8804) not from his evil <07451> way <01870>,

but made <06213> (8799) again <07725> (8799) of the lowest

<07098> of the people <05971> priests <03548> of the high places

<01116>: whosoever would <02655>, he consecrated <04390> (8762)

<03027> him, and he became one of the priests <03548> of the

high places <01116>.

1Ki 13:34 And this thing <01697> became sin <02403> unto the

house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379>, even to cut it off <03582>

(8687), and to destroy <08045> (8687) it from off the face

<06440> of the earth <0127>.

1Ki 14:01 ¶ At that time <06256> Abijah <029> the son <01121> of

Jeroboam <03379> fell sick <02470> (8804).

1Ki 14:02 And Jeroboam <03379> said <0559> (8799) to his wife

<0802>, Arise <06965> (8798), I pray thee, and disguise <08138>

(8690) thyself, that thou be not known <03045> (8799) to be the

wife <0802> of Jeroboam <03379>; and get <01980> (8804) thee to

Shiloh <07887>: behold, there is Ahijah <0281> the prophet

<05030>, which told <01696> (8765) me that I should be king

<04428> over this people <05971>.

1Ki 14:03 And take <03947> (8804) with thee <03027> ten <06235>

loaves <03899>, and cracknels <05350>, and a cruse <01228> of

honey <01706>, and go <0935> (8804) to him: he shall tell

<05046> (8686) thee what shall become of the child <05288>.

1Ki 14:04 And Jeroboam’s <03379> wife <0802> did so <06213>

(8799), and arose <06965> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) to

Shiloh <07887>, and came <0935> (8799) to the house <01004> of

Ahijah <0281>. But Ahijah <0281> could <03201> (8804) not see

<07200> (8800); for his eyes <05869> were set <06965> (8804) by

reason of his age <07869>.

1Ki 14:05 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8804) unto Ahijah

<0281>, Behold, the wife <0802> of Jeroboam <03379> cometh

<0935> (8802) to ask <01875> (8800) a thing <01697> of thee for

her son <01121>; for he is sick <02470> (8802): thus <02090> and

thus shalt thou say <01696> (8762) unto her: for it shall be,

when she cometh in <0935> (8800), that she shall feign herself

to be another <05234> (8693) woman.

1Ki 14:06 And it was so, when Ahijah <0281> heard <08085>

(8800) the sound <06963> of her feet <07272>, as she came in

<0935> (8802) at the door <06607>, that he said <0559> (8799),

Come in <0935> (8798), thou wife <0802> of Jeroboam <03379>; why

feignest thou thyself to be another <05234> (8693)? for I am

sent <07971> (8803) to thee with heavy <07186> tidings.

1Ki 14:07 ¶ Go <03212> (8798), tell <0559> (8798) Jeroboam

<03379>, Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> God <0430> of

Israel <03478>, Forasmuch as <03282> I exalted <07311> (8689)

thee from among <08432> the people <05971>, and made <05414>

(8799) thee prince <05057> over my people <05971> Israel <03478>,

1Ki 14:08 And rent <07167> <00> the kingdom <04467> away

<07167> (8799) from the house <01004> of David <01732>, and gave

<05414> (8799) it thee: and yet thou hast not been as my servant

<05650> David <01732>, who kept <08104> (8804) my commandments

<04687>, and who followed <01980> (8804) <0310> me with all his

heart <03824>, to do <06213> (8800) that only which was right

<03477> in mine eyes <05869>;

1Ki 14:09 But hast done <06213> (8800) evil <07489> (8686)

above all that were before <06440> thee: for thou hast gone

<03212> (8799) and made <06213> (8799) thee other <0312> gods

<0430>, and molten images <04541>, to provoke me to anger

<03707> (8687), and hast cast <07993> (8689) me behind <0310>

thy back <01458>:

1Ki 14:10 Therefore, behold, I will bring <0935> (8688) evil

<07451> upon the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379>, and will cut

off <03772> (8689) from Jeroboam <03379> him that pisseth

<08366> (8688) against the wall <07023>, and him that is shut up

<06113> (8803) and left <05800> (8803) in Israel <03478>, and

will take away <01197> (8765) the remnant <0310> of the house

<01004> of Jeroboam <03379>, as a man taketh away <01197> (8762)

dung <01557>, till it be all gone <08552> (8800).

1Ki 14:11 Him that dieth <04191> (8801) of Jeroboam <03379> in

the city <05892> shall the dogs <03611> eat <0398> (8799); and

him that dieth <04191> (8801) in the field <07704> shall the

fowls <05775> of the air <08064> eat <0398> (8799): for the LORD

<03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765) it.

1Ki 14:12 Arise <06965> (8798) thou therefore, get <03212>

(8798) thee to thine own house <01004>: and when thy feet

<07272> enter <0935> (8800) into the city <05892>, the child

<03206> shall die <04191> (8804).

1Ki 14:13 And all Israel <03478> shall mourn <05594> (8804) for

him, and bury <06912> (8804) him: for he only of Jeroboam

<03379> shall come <0935> (8799) to the grave <06913>, because

in him there is found <04672> (8738) some good <02896> thing

<01697> toward the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> in

the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379>.

1Ki 14:14 Moreover the LORD <03068> shall raise him up <06965>

(8689) a king <04428> over Israel <03478>, who shall cut off

<03772> (8686) the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379> that day

<03117>: but what? even now.

1Ki 14:15 For the LORD <03068> shall smite <05221> (8689)

Israel <03478>, as a reed <07070> is shaken <05110> (8799) in

the water <04325>, and he shall root up <05428> (8804) Israel

<03478> out of this good <02896> land <0127>, which he gave

<05414> (8804) to their fathers <01>, and shall scatter <02219>

(8765) them beyond <05676> the river <05104>, because they have

made <06213> (8804) their groves <0842>, provoking the LORD

<03068> to anger <03707> (8688).

1Ki 14:16 And he shall give <05414> <00> Israel <03478> up

<05414> (8799) because <01558> of the sins <02403> of Jeroboam

<03379>, who did sin <02398> (8804), and who made Israel <03478>

to sin <02398> (8689).

1Ki 14:17 And Jeroboam’s <03379> wife <0802> arose <06965>

(8799), and departed <03212> (8799), and came <0935> (8799) to

Tirzah <08656>: and when she came <0935> (8802) to the threshold

<05592> of the door <01004>, the child <05288> died <04191>

(8804);

1Ki 14:18 And they buried <06912> (8799) him; and all Israel

<03478> mourned <05594> (8799) for him, according to the word

<01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) by

the hand <03027> of his servant <05650> Ahijah <0281> the

prophet <05030>.

1Ki 14:19 And the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Jeroboam

<03379>, how he warred <03898> (8738), and how he reigned

<04427> (8804), behold, they are written <03789> (8803) in the

book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings

<04428> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 14:20 And the days <03117> which Jeroboam <03379> reigned

<04427> (8804) were two <08147> and twenty <06242> years <08141>:

and he slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and Nadab

<05070> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.

1Ki 14:21 ¶ And Rehoboam <07346> the son <01121> of Solomon

<08010> reigned <04427> (8804) in Judah <03063>. Rehoboam

<07346> was forty <0705> and one <0259> years <08141> old

<01121> when he began to reign <04427> (8800), and he reigned

<04427> (8804) seventeen <07651> <06240> years <08141> in

Jerusalem <03389>, the city <05892> which the LORD <03068> did

choose <0977> (8804) out of all the tribes <07626> of Israel

<03478>, to put <07760> (8800) his name <08034> there. And his

mother’s <0517> name <08034> was Naamah <05279> an Ammonitess

<05985>.

1Ki 14:22 And Judah <03063> did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in

the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and they provoked him to

jealousy <07065> (8762) with their sins <02403> which they had

committed <02398> (8804), above all that their fathers <01> had

done <06213> (8804).

1Ki 14:23 For they also built <01129> (8799) them high places

<01116>, and images <04676>, and groves <0842>, on every high

<01364> hill <01389>, and under every green <07488> tree <06086>.

1Ki 14:24 And there were also sodomites <06945> in the land

<0776>: and they did <06213> (8804) according to all the

abominations <08441> of the nations <01471> which the LORD

<03068> cast out <03423> (8689) before <06440> the children

<01121> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 14:25 And it came to pass in the fifth <02549> year <08141>

of king <04428> Rehoboam <07346>, that Shishak <07895> king

<04428> of Egypt <04714> came up <05927> (8804) against

Jerusalem <03389>:

1Ki 14:26 And he took away <03947> (8799) the treasures <0214>

of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and the treasures

<0214> of the king’s <04428> house <01004>; he even took away

<03947> (8804) all: and he took away <03947> (8799) all the

shields <04043> of gold <02091> which Solomon <08010> had made

<06213> (8804).

1Ki 14:27 And king <04428> Rehoboam <07346> made <06213> (8799)

in their stead brasen <05178> shields <04043>, and committed

<06485> (8689) them unto the hands <03027> of the chief <08269>

of the guard <07323> (8801), which kept <08104> (8802) the door

<06607> of the king’s <04428> house <01004>.

1Ki 14:28 And it was so, when <01767> the king <04428> went

<0935> (8800) into the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, that

the guard <07323> (8801) bare <05375> (8799) them, and brought

them back <07725> (8689) into the guard <07323> (8801) chamber

<08372>.

1Ki 14:29 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Rehoboam

<07346>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not

written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles

<01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>?

1Ki 14:30 And there was war <04421> between Rehoboam <07346>

and Jeroboam <03379> all their days <03117>.

1Ki 14:31 And Rehoboam <07346> slept <07901> (8799) with his

fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) with his fathers

<01> in the city <05892> of David <01732>. And his mother’s

<0517> name <08034> was Naamah <05279> an Ammonitess <05985>.

And Abijam <038> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his

stead.

1Ki 15:01 ¶ Now in the eighteenth <08083> <06240> year <08141>

of king <04428> Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat

<05028> reigned <04427> (8804) Abijam <038> over Judah <03063>.

1Ki 15:02 Three <07969> years <08141> reigned <04427> (8804) he

in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother’s <0517> name <08034> was

Maachah <04601>, the daughter <01323> of Abishalom <053>.

1Ki 15:03 And he walked <03212> (8799) in all the sins <02403>

of his father <01>, which he had done <06213> (8804) before

<06440> him: and his heart <03824> was not perfect <08003> with

the LORD <03068> his God <0430>, as the heart <03824> of David

<01732> his father <01>.

1Ki 15:04 Nevertheless for David’s <01732> sake did the LORD

<03068> his God <0430> give <05414> (8804) him a lamp <05216> in

Jerusalem <03389>, to set up <06965> (8687) his son <01121>

after <0310> him, and to establish <05975> (8687) Jerusalem

<03389>:

1Ki 15:05 Because David <01732> did <06213> (8804) that which

was right <03477> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and

turned not aside <05493> (8804) from any thing that he commanded

<06680> (8765) him all the days <03117> of his life <02416>,

save only in the matter <01697> of Uriah <0223> the Hittite

<02850>.

1Ki 15:06 And there was war <04421> between Rehoboam <07346>

and Jeroboam <03379> all the days <03117> of his life <02416>.

1Ki 15:07 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Abijam

<038>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written

<03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697>

<03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>? And there was war

<04421> between Abijam <038> and Jeroboam <03379>.

1Ki 15:08 And Abijam <038> slept <07901> (8799) with his

fathers <01>; and they buried <06912> (8799) him in the city

<05892> of David <01732>: and Asa <0609> his son <01121> reigned

<04427> (8799) in his stead.

1Ki 15:09 ¶ And in the twentieth <06242> year <08141> of

Jeroboam <03379> king <04428> of Israel <03478> reigned <04427>

(8804) Asa <0609> over Judah <03063>.

1Ki 15:10 And forty <0705> and one <0259> years <08141> reigned

<04427> (8804) he in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother’s <0517>

name <08034> was Maachah <04601>, the daughter <01323> of

Abishalom <053>.

1Ki 15:11 And Asa <0609> did <06213> (8799) that which was

right <03477> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, as did

David <01732> his father <01>.

1Ki 15:12 And he took away <05674> (8686) the sodomites <06945>

out of the land <0776>, and removed <05493> (8686) all the idols

<01544> that his fathers <01> had made <06213> (8804).

1Ki 15:13 And also Maachah <04601> his mother <0517>, even her

he removed <05493> (8686) from being queen <01377>, because she

had made <06213> (8804) an idol <04656> in a grove <0842>; and

Asa <0609> destroyed <03772> (8799) her idol <04656>, and burnt

<08313> (8799) it by the brook <05158> Kidron <06939>.

1Ki 15:14 But the high places <01116> were not removed <05493>

(8804): nevertheless Asa’s <0609> heart <03824> was perfect

<08003> with the LORD <03068> all his days <03117>.

1Ki 15:15 And he brought <0935> (8686) in the things <06944>

<00> which his father <01> had dedicated <06944>, and the things

which himself had dedicated <06944>, into the house <01004> of

the LORD <03068>, silver <03701>, and gold <02091>, and vessels

<03627>.

1Ki 15:16 And there was war <04421> between Asa <0609> and

Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478> all their days

<03117>.

1Ki 15:17 And Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478>

went up <05927> (8799) against Judah <03063>, and built <01129>

(8799) Ramah <07414>, that he might not suffer <05414> (8800)

any to go out <03318> (8802) or come in <0935> (8802) to Asa

<0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063>.

1Ki 15:18 Then Asa <0609> took <03947> (8799) all the silver

<03701> and the gold <02091> that were left <03498> (8737) in

the treasures <0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>,

and the treasures <0214> of the king’s <04428> house <01004>,

and delivered <05414> (8799) them into the hand <03027> of his

servants <05650>: and king <04428> Asa <0609> sent <07971>

(8799) them to Benhadad <01130>, the son <01121> of Tabrimon

<02886>, the son <01121> of Hezion <02383>, king <04428> of

Syria <0758>, that dwelt <03427> (8802) at Damascus <01834>,

saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 15:19 There is a league <01285> between me and thee, and

between my father <01> and thy father <01>: behold, I have sent

<07971> (8804) unto thee a present <07810> of silver <03701> and

gold <02091>; come <03212> (8798) and break <06565> (8685) thy

league <01285> with Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel

<03478>, that he may depart <05927> (8799) from me.

1Ki 15:20 So Benhadad <01130> hearkened <08085> (8799) unto

king <04428> Asa <0609>, and sent <07971> (8799) the captains

<08269> of the hosts <02428> which he had against the cities

<05892> of Israel <03478>, and smote <05221> (8686) Ijon <05859>,

and Dan <01835>, and Abelbethmaachah <062>, and all Cinneroth

<03672>, with all the land <0776> of Naphtali <05321>.

1Ki 15:21 And it came to pass, when Baasha <01201> heard

<08085> (8800) thereof, that he left off <02308> (8799) building

<01129> (8800) of Ramah <07414>, and dwelt <03427> (8799) in

Tirzah <08656>.

1Ki 15:22 Then king <04428> Asa <0609> made a proclamation

<08085> (8689) throughout all Judah <03063>; none was exempted

<05355>: and they took <05375> (8799) away the stones <068> of

Ramah <07414>, and the timber <06086> thereof, wherewith Baasha

<01201> had builded <01129> (8804); and king <04428> Asa <0609>

built <01129> (8799) with them Geba <01387> of Benjamin <01144>,

and Mizpah <04709>.

1Ki 15:23 The rest <03499> of all the acts <01697> of Asa

<0609>, and all his might <01369>, and all that he did <06213>

(8804), and the cities <05892> which he built <01129> (8804),

are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the

chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah

<03063>? Nevertheless in the time <06256> of his old age <02209>

he was diseased <02470> (8804) in his feet <07272>.

1Ki 15:24 And Asa <0609> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers

<01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) with his fathers <01> in the

city <05892> of David <01732> his father <01>: and Jehoshaphat

<03092> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.

1Ki 15:25 ¶ And Nadab <05070> the son <01121> of Jeroboam

<03379> began to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478> in the

second <08147> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah

<03063>, and reigned <04427> (8799) over Israel <03478> two

<08147> years <08141>.

1Ki 15:26 And he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight

<05869> of the LORD <03068>, and walked <03212> (8799) in the

way <01870> of his father <01>, and in his sin <02403> wherewith

he made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689).

1Ki 15:27 And Baasha <01201> the son <01121> of Ahijah <0281>,

of the house <01004> of Issachar <03485>, conspired <07194>

(8799) against him; and Baasha <01201> smote <05221> (8686) him

at Gibbethon <01405>, which belonged to the Philistines <06430>;

for Nadab <05070> and all Israel <03478> laid siege <06696>

(8802) to Gibbethon <01405>.

1Ki 15:28 Even in the third <07969> year <08141> of Asa <0609>

king <04428> of Judah <03063> did Baasha <01201> slay <04191>

(8686) him, and reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.

1Ki 15:29 And it came to pass, when he reigned <04427> (8800),

that he smote <05221> (8689) all the house <01004> of Jeroboam

<03379>; he left <07604> (8689) not to Jeroboam <03379> any that

breathed <05397>, until he had destroyed <08045> (8689) him,

according unto the saying <01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he

spake <01696> (8765) by <03027> his servant <05650> Ahijah

<0281> the Shilonite <07888>:

1Ki 15:30 Because of the sins <02403> of Jeroboam <03379> which

he sinned <02398> (8804), and which he made Israel <03478> sin

<02398> (8689), by his provocation <03708> wherewith he provoked

the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> to anger <03707>

(8689).

1Ki 15:31 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Nadab

<05070>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not

written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles

<01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>?

1Ki 15:32 And there was war <04421> between Asa <0609> and

Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478> all their days

<03117>.

1Ki 15:33 In the third <07969> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king

<04428> of Judah <03063> began Baasha <01201> the son <01121> of

Ahijah <0281> to reign <04427> (8804) over all Israel <03478> in

Tirzah <08656>, twenty <06242> and four <0702> years <08141>.

1Ki 15:34 And he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight

<05869> of the LORD <03068>, and walked <03212> (8799) in the

way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379>, and in his sin <02403>

wherewith he made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689).

1Ki 16:01 ¶ Then the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to

Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Hanani <02607> against Baasha

<01201>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 16:02 Forasmuch as I exalted <07311> (8689) thee out of the

dust <06083>, and made <05414> (8799) thee prince <05057> over

my people <05971> Israel <03478>; and thou hast walked <03212>

(8799) in the way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379>, and hast made my

people <05971> Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8686), to provoke

me to anger <03707> (8687) with their sins <02403>;

1Ki 16:03 Behold, I will take away <01197> (8686) the posterity

<0310> of Baasha <01201>, and the posterity <0310> of his house

<01004>; and will make <05414> (8804) thy house <01004> like the

house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat

<05028>.

1Ki 16:04 Him that dieth <04191> (8801) of Baasha <01201> in

the city <05892> shall the dogs <03611> eat <0398> (8799); and

him that dieth <04191> (8801) of his in the fields <07704> shall

the fowls <05775> of the air <08064> eat <0398> (8799).

1Ki 16:05 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Baasha

<01201>, and what he did <06213> (8804), and his might <01369>,

are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the

chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel

<03478>?

1Ki 16:06 So Baasha <01201> slept <07901> (8799) with his

fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in Tirzah <08656>:

and Elah <0425> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his

stead.

1Ki 16:07 And also by the hand <03027> of the prophet <05030>

Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Hanani <02607> came the word

<01697> of the LORD <03068> against Baasha <01201>, and against

his house <01004>, even for all the evil <07451> that he did

<06213> (8804) in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, in

provoking him to anger <03707> (8687) with the work <04639> of

his hands <03027>, in being like the house <01004> of Jeroboam

<03379>; and because he killed <05221> (8689) him.

1Ki 16:08 In the twenty <06242> <08141> and sixth <08337> year

<08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began Elah

<0425> the son <01121> of Baasha <01201> to reign <04427> (8804)

over Israel <03478> in Tirzah <08656>, two years <08141>.

1Ki 16:09 And his servant <05650> Zimri <02174>, captain

<08269> of half <04276> his chariots <07393>, conspired <07194>

(8799) against him, as he was in Tirzah <08656>, drinking

<08354> (8802) himself drunk <07910> in the house <01004> of

Arza <0777> steward of his house <01004> in Tirzah <08656>.

1Ki 16:10 And Zimri <02174> went in <0935> (8799) and smote

<05221> (8686) him, and killed <04191> (8686) him, in the twenty

<06242> and seventh <07651> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king

<04428> of Judah <03063>, and reigned <04427> (8799) in his

stead.

1Ki 16:11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign <04427>

(8800), as soon as he sat <03427> (8800) on his throne <03678>,

that he slew <05221> (8689) all the house <01004> of Baasha

<01201>: he left <07604> (8689) him not one that pisseth <08366>

(8688) against a wall <07023>, neither of his kinsfolks <01350>

(8802), nor of his friends <07453>.

1Ki 16:12 Thus did Zimri <02174> destroy <08045> (8686) all the

house <01004> of Baasha <01201>, according to the word <01697>

of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) against

Baasha <01201> by <03027> Jehu <03058> the prophet <05030>,

1Ki 16:13 For all the sins <02403> of Baasha <01201>, and the

sins <02403> of Elah <0425> his son <01121>, by which they

sinned <02398> (8804), and by which they made Israel <03478> to

sin <02398> (8689), in provoking the LORD <03068> God <0430> of

Israel <03478> to anger <03707> (8687) with their vanities

<01892>.

1Ki 16:14 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Elah

<0425>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written

<03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697>

<03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>?

1Ki 16:15 ¶ In the twenty <06242> <08141> and seventh <07651>

year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> did

Zimri <02174> reign <04427> (8804) seven <07651> days <03117> in

Tirzah <08656>. And the people <05971> were encamped <02583>

(8802) against Gibbethon <01405>, which belonged to the

Philistines <06430>.

1Ki 16:16 And the people <05971> that were encamped <02583>

(8802) heard <08085> (8799) say <0559> (8800), Zimri <02174>

hath conspired <07194> (8804), and hath also slain <05221>

(8689) the king <04428>: wherefore all Israel <03478> made Omri

<06018>, the captain <08269> of the host <06635>, king <04427>

(8686) over Israel <03478> that day <03117> in the camp <04264>.

1Ki 16:17 And Omri <06018> went up <05927> (8799) from

Gibbethon <01405>, and all Israel <03478> with him, and they

besieged <06696> (8799) Tirzah <08656>.

1Ki 16:18 And it came to pass, when Zimri <02174> saw <07200>

(8800) that the city <05892> was taken <03920> (8738), that he

went <0935> (8799) into the palace <0759> of the king’s <04428>

house <01004>, and burnt <08313> (8799) the king’s <04428> house

<01004> over him with fire <0784>, and died <04191> (8799),

1Ki 16:19 For his sins <02403> which he sinned <02398> (8804)

in doing <06213> (8800) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the

LORD <03068>, in walking <03212> (8800) in the way <01870> of

Jeroboam <03379>, and in his sin <02403> which he did <06213>

(8804), to make Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8687).

1Ki 16:20 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Zimri

<02174>, and his treason <07195> that he wrought <07194> (8804),

are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the

chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel

<03478>?

1Ki 16:21 Then were the people <05971> of Israel <03478>

divided <02505> (8735) into two parts <02677>: half <02677> of

the people <05971> followed <01961> (8804) <0310> Tibni <08402>

the son <01121> of Ginath <01527>, to make him king <04427>

(8687); and half <02677> followed <0310> Omri <06018>.

1Ki 16:22 But the people <05971> that followed <0310> Omri

<06018> prevailed <02388> (8799) against <0854> the people

<05971> that followed <0310> Tibni <08402> the son <01121> of

Ginath <01527>: so Tibni <08402> died <04191> (8799), and Omri

<06018> reigned <04427> (8799).

1Ki 16:23 In the thirty <07970> <08141> and first <0259> year

<08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began Omri

<06018> to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478>, twelve

<08147> <06240> years <08141>: six <08337> years <08141> reigned

<04427> (8804) he in Tirzah <08656>.

1Ki 16:24 And he bought <07069> (8799) the hill <02022> Samaria

<08111> of Shemer <08106> for two talents <03603> of silver

<03701>, and built <01129> (8799) on the hill <02022>, and

called <07121> (8799) the name <08034> of the city <05892> which

he built <01129> (8804), after the name <08034> of Shemer

<08106>, owner <0113> of the hill <02022>, Samaria <08111>.

1Ki 16:25 But Omri <06018> wrought <06213> (8799) evil <07451>

in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and did worse <07489>

(8686) than all that were before <06440> him.

1Ki 16:26 For he walked <03212> (8799) in all the way <01870>

of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028>, and in his

sin <02403> wherewith he made Israel <03478> to sin <02398>

(8689), to provoke the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>

to anger <03707> (8687) with their vanities <01892>.

1Ki 16:27 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Omri

<06018> which he did <06213> (8804), and his might <01369> that

he shewed <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in

the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings

<04428> of Israel <03478>?

1Ki 16:28 So Omri <06018> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers

<01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) in Samaria <08111>: and Ahab

<0256> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.

1Ki 16:29 ¶ And in the thirty <07970> <08141> and eighth <08083>

year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began

Ahab <0256> the son <01121> of Omri <06018> to reign <04427>

(8804) over Israel <03478>: and Ahab <0256> the son <01121> of

Omri <06018> reigned <04427> (8799) over Israel <03478> in

Samaria <08111> twenty <06242> and two <08147> years <08141>.

1Ki 16:30 And Ahab <0256> the son <01121> of Omri <06018> did

<06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD

<03068> above all that were before <06440> him.

1Ki 16:31 And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing

<07043> (8738) for him to walk <03212> (8800) in the sins

<02403> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028>,

that he took <03947> (8799) to wife <0802> Jezebel <0348> the

daughter <01323> of Ethbaal <0856> king <04428> of the Zidonians

<06722>, and went <03212> (8799) and served <05647> (8799) Baal

<01168>, and worshipped <07812> (8691) him.

1Ki 16:32 And he reared up <06965> (8686) an altar <04196> for

Baal <01168> in the house <01004> of Baal <01168>, which he had

built <01129> (8804) in Samaria <08111>.

1Ki 16:33 And Ahab <0256> made <06213> (8799) a grove <0842>;

and Ahab <0256> did <06213> (8800) more <03254> (8686) to

provoke the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> to anger

<03707> (8687) than all the kings <04428> of Israel <03478> that

were before <06440> him.

1Ki 16:34 In his days <03117> did Hiel <02419> the Bethelite

<01017> build <01129> (8804) Jericho <03405>: he laid the

foundation <03245> (8765) thereof in Abiram <048> his firstborn

<01060>, and set up <05324> (8689) the gates <01817> thereof in

his youngest <06810> son Segub <07687>, according to the word

<01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) by

<03027> Joshua <03091> the son <01121> of Nun <05126>.

1Ki 17:01 ¶ And Elijah <0452> the Tishbite <08664>, who was of

the inhabitants <08453> of Gilead <01568>, said <0559> (8799)

unto Ahab <0256>, As the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel

<03478> liveth <02416>, before <06440> whom I stand <05975>

(8804), there shall not be dew <02919> nor rain <04306> these

years <08141>, but according <06310> to my word <01697>.

1Ki 17:02 And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came unto

him, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 17:03 Get <03212> (8798) thee hence, and turn <06437>

(8804) thee eastward <06924>, and hide <05641> (8738) thyself by

the brook <05158> Cherith <03747>, that is before <06440> Jordan

<03383>.

1Ki 17:04 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink <08354> (8799)

of the brook <05158>; and I have commanded <06680> (8765) the

ravens <06158> to feed <03557> (8771) thee there.

1Ki 17:05 So he went <03212> (8799) and did <06213> (8799)

according unto the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>: for he went

<03212> (8799) and dwelt <03427> (8799) by the brook <05158>

Cherith <03747>, that is before <06440> Jordan <03383>.

1Ki 17:06 And the ravens <06158> brought <0935> (8688) him

bread <03899> and flesh <01320> in the morning <01242>, and

bread <03899> and flesh <01320> in the evening <06153>; and he

drank <08354> (8799) of the brook <05158>.

1Ki 17:07 And it came to pass after <07093> a while <03117>,

that the brook <05158> dried up <03001> (8799), because there

had been no rain <01653> in the land <0776>.

1Ki 17:08 ¶ And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came unto

him, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 17:09 Arise <06965> (8798), get <03212> (8798) thee to

Zarephath <06886>, which belongeth to Zidon <06721>, and dwell

<03427> (8804) there: behold, I have commanded <06680> (8765) a

widow <0490> woman <0802> there to sustain <03557> (8771) thee.

1Ki 17:10 So he arose <06965> (8799) and went <03212> (8799) to

Zarephath <06886>. And when he came <0935> (8799) to the gate

<06607> of the city <05892>, behold, the widow <0490> woman

<0802> was there gathering <07197> (8781) of sticks <06086>: and

he called <07121> (8799) to her, and said <0559> (8799), Fetch

<03947> (8798) me, I pray thee, a little <04592> water <04325>

in a vessel <03627>, that I may drink <08354> (8799).

1Ki 17:11 And as she was going <03212> (8799) to fetch <03947>

(8800) it, he called <07121> (8799) to her, and said <0559>

(8799), Bring <03947> (8798) me, I pray thee, a morsel <06595>

of bread <03899> in thine hand <03027>.

1Ki 17:12 And she said <0559> (8799), As the LORD <03068> thy

God <0430> liveth <02416>, I have <03426> not a cake <04580>,

but an handful <04393> <03709> of meal <07058> in a barrel

<03537>, and a little <04592> oil <08081> in a cruse <06835>:

and, behold, I am gathering <07197> (8781) two <08147> sticks

<06086>, that I may go in <0935> (8804) and dress <06213> (8804)

it for me and my son <01121>, that we may eat <0398> (8804) it,

and die <04191> (8804).

1Ki 17:13 And Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799) unto her, Fear

<03372> (8799) not; go <0935> (8798) and do <06213> (8798) as

thou hast said <01697>: but make <06213> (8798) me thereof

<08033> a little <06996> cake <05692> first <07223>, and bring

<03318> (8689) it unto me, and after <0314> make <06213> (8799)

for thee and for thy son <01121>.

1Ki 17:14 For thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> God

<0430> of Israel <03478>, The barrel <03537> of meal <07058>

shall not waste <03615> (8799), neither shall the cruse <06835>

of oil <08081> fail <02637> (8799), until the day <03117> that

the LORD <03068> sendeth <05414> (8800) rain <01653> upon

<06440> the earth <0127>.

1Ki 17:15 And she went <03212> (8799) and did <06213> (8799)

according to the saying <01697> of Elijah <0452>: and she, and

he, and her house <01004>, did eat <0398> (8799) many days

<03117>.

1Ki 17:16 And the barrel <03537> of meal <07058> wasted <03615>

(8804) not, neither did the cruse <06835> of oil <08081> fail

<02638>, according to the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>,

which he spake <01696> (8765) by <03027> Elijah <0452>.

1Ki 17:17 ¶ And it came to pass after <0310> these things

<01697>, that the son <01121> of the woman <0802>, the mistress

<01172> of the house <01004>, fell sick <02470> (8804); and his

sickness <02483> was so <03966> sore <02389>, that there was no

breath <05397> left <03498> (8738) in him.

1Ki 17:18 And she said <0559> (8799) unto Elijah <0452>, What

have I to do with thee, O thou man <0376> of God <0430>? art

thou come <0935> (8804) unto me to call <02142> <00> my sin

<05771> to remembrance <02142> (8687), and to slay <04191>

(8687) my son <01121>?

1Ki 17:19 And he said <0559> (8799) unto her, Give <05414>

(8798) me thy son <01121>. And he took <03947> (8799) him out of

her bosom <02436>, and carried him up <05927> (8686) into a loft

<05944>, where he abode <03427> (8802), and laid <07901> (8686)

him upon his own bed <04296>.

1Ki 17:20 And he cried <07121> (8799) unto the LORD <03068>,

and said <0559> (8799), O LORD <03068> my God <0430>, hast thou

also brought evil <07489> (8689) upon the widow <0490> with whom

I sojourn <01481> (8711), by slaying <04191> (8687) her son

<01121>?

1Ki 17:21 And he stretched <04058> (8709) himself upon the

child <03206> three <07969> times <06471>, and cried <07121>

(8799) unto the LORD <03068>, and said <0559> (8799), O LORD

<03068> my God <0430>, I pray thee, let this child’s <03206>

soul <05315> come <07725> <00> into him <07130> again <07725>

(8799).

1Ki 17:22 And the LORD <03068> heard <08085> (8799) the voice

<06963> of Elijah <0452>; and the soul <05315> of the child

<03206> came <07725> <00> into him <07130> again <07725> (8799),

and he revived <02421> (8799).

1Ki 17:23 And Elijah <0452> took <03947> (8799) the child

<03206>, and brought him down <03381> (8686) out of the chamber

<05944> into the house <01004>, and delivered <05414> (8799) him

unto his mother <0517>: and Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799),

See <07200> (8798), thy son <01121> liveth <02416>.

1Ki 17:24 And the woman <0802> said <0559> (8799) to Elijah

<0452>, Now by this <02088> I know <03045> (8804) that thou art

a man <0376> of God <0430>, and that the word <01697> of the

LORD <03068> in thy mouth <06310> is truth <0571>.

1Ki 18:01 ¶ And it came to pass after many <07227> days <03117>,

that the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to Elijah <0452>

in the third <07992> year <08141>, saying <0559> (8800), Go

<03212> (8798), shew <07200> (8734) thyself unto Ahab <0256>;

and I will send <05414> (8799) rain <04306> upon <06440> the

earth <0127>.

1Ki 18:02 And Elijah <0452> went <03212> (8799) to shew <07200>

(8736) himself unto Ahab <0256>. And there was a sore <02389>

famine <07458> in Samaria <08111>.

1Ki 18:03 And Ahab <0256> called <07121> (8799) Obadiah <05662>,

which was the governor of his house <01004>. (Now Obadiah

<05662> feared <03373> the LORD <03068> greatly <03966>:

1Ki 18:04 For it was so, when Jezebel <0348> cut off <03772>

(8687) the prophets <05030> of the LORD <03068>, that Obadiah

<05662> took <03947> (8799) an hundred <03967> prophets <05030>,

and hid <02244> (8686) them by fifty <0376> <02572> in a cave

<04631>, and fed <03557> (8773) them with bread <03899> and

water <04325>.)

1Ki 18:05 And Ahab <0256> said <0559> (8799) unto Obadiah

<05662>, Go <03212> (8798) into the land <0776>, unto all

fountains <04599> of water <04325>, and unto all brooks <05158>:

peradventure <0194> we may find <04672> (8799) grass <02682> to

save <02421> (8762) the horses <05483> and mules <06505> alive

<02421> (8762), that we lose <03772> (8686) not all the beasts

<0929>.

1Ki 18:06 So they divided <02505> (8762) the land <0776>

between them to pass throughout <05674> (8800) it: Ahab <0256>

went <01980> (8804) one <0259> way <01870> by himself, and

Obadiah <05662> went <01980> (8804) another <0259> way <01870>

by himself.

1Ki 18:07 And as Obadiah <05662> was in the way <01870>, behold,

Elijah <0452> met <07125> (8800) him: and he knew <05234>

(8686) him, and fell <05307> (8799) on his face <06440>, and

said <0559> (8799), Art thou that my lord <0113> Elijah <0452>?

1Ki 18:08 And he answered <0559> (8799) him, I am: go <03212>

(8798), tell <0559> (8798) thy lord <0113>, Behold, Elijah

<0452> is here.

1Ki 18:09 And he said <0559> (8799), What have I sinned <02398>

(8804), that thou wouldest deliver <05414> (8802) thy servant

<05650> into the hand <03027> of Ahab <0256>, to slay <04191>

(8687) me?

1Ki 18:10 As the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> liveth <02416>,

there is no <03426> nation <01471> or kingdom <04467>, whither

<0834> my lord <0113> hath not sent <07971> (8804) to seek

<01245> (8763) thee: and when they said <0559> (8804), He is not

there; he took an oath <07650> (8689) of the kingdom <04467> and

nation <01471>, that they found <04672> (8799) thee not.

1Ki 18:11 And now thou sayest <0559> (8802), Go <03212> (8798),

tell <0559> (8798) thy lord <0113>, Behold, Elijah <0452> is

here.

1Ki 18:12 And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am gone

<03212> (8799) from thee, that the Spirit <07307> of the LORD

<03068> shall carry <05375> (8799) thee whither I know <03045>

(8799) not; and so when I come <0935> (8804) and tell <05046>

(8687) Ahab <0256>, and he cannot find <04672> (8799) thee, he

shall slay <02026> (8804) me: but I thy servant <05650> fear

<03372> (8804) the LORD <03068> from my youth <05271>.

1Ki 18:13 Was it not told <05046> (8717) my lord <0113> what I

did <06213> (8804) when Jezebel <0348> slew <02026> (8800) the

prophets <05030> of the LORD <03068>, how I hid <02244> (8686)

an hundred <03967> men <0376> of the LORD’S <03068> prophets

<05030> by fifty <02572> in a cave <04631>, and fed <03557>

(8770) them with bread <03899> and water <04325>?

1Ki 18:14 And now thou sayest <0559> (8802), Go <03212> (8798),

tell <0559> (8798) thy lord <0113>, Behold, Elijah <0452> is

here: and he shall slay <02026> (8804) me.

1Ki 18:15 And Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799), As the LORD

<03068> of hosts <06635> liveth <02416>, before <06440> whom I

stand <05975> (8804), I will surely shew <07200> (8735) myself

unto him to day <03117>.

1Ki 18:16 So Obadiah <05662> went <03212> (8799) to meet

<07125> (8800) Ahab <0256>, and told <05046> (8686) him: and

Ahab <0256> went <03212> (8799) to meet <07125> (8800) Elijah

<0452>.

1Ki 18:17 ¶ And it came to pass, when Ahab <0256> saw <07200>

(8800) Elijah <0452>, that Ahab <0256> said <0559> (8799) unto

him, Art thou he that troubleth <05916> (8802) Israel <03478>?

1Ki 18:18 And he answered <0559> (8799), I have not troubled

<05916> (8804) Israel <03478>; but thou, and thy father’s <01>

house <01004>, in that ye have forsaken <05800> (8800) the

commandments <04687> of the LORD <03068>, and thou hast followed

<03212> (8799) <0310> Baalim <01168>.

1Ki 18:19 Now therefore send <07971> (8798), and gather <06908>

(8798) to me all Israel <03478> unto mount <02022> Carmel

<03760>, and the prophets <05030> of Baal <01168> four <0702>

hundred <03967> and fifty <02572>, and the prophets <05030> of

the groves <0842> four <0702> hundred <03967>, which eat <0398>

(8802) at Jezebel’s <0348> table <07979>.

1Ki 18:20 So Ahab <0256> sent <07971> (8799) unto all the

children <01121> of Israel <03478>, and gathered <06908> <00>

the prophets <05030> together <06908> (8799) unto mount <02022>

Carmel <03760>.

1Ki 18:21 ¶ And Elijah <0452> came <05066> (8799) unto all the

people <05971>, and said <0559> (8799), How long <05921> halt

<06452> (8802) ye between two <08147> opinions <05587>? if the

LORD <03068> be God <0430>, follow him: but if Baal <01168>,

then follow <03212> (8798) <0310> him. And the people <05971>

answered <06030> (8804) him not a word <01697>.

1Ki 18:22 Then said <0559> (8799) Elijah <0452> unto the people

<05971>, I, even I only, remain <03498> (8738) a prophet <05030>

of the LORD <03068>; but Baal’s <01168> prophets <05030> are

four <0702> hundred <03967> and fifty <02572> men <0376>.

1Ki 18:23 Let them therefore give <05414> (8799) us two <08147>

bullocks <06499>; and let them choose <0977> (8799) one <0259>

bullock <06499> for themselves, and cut it in pieces <05408>

(8762), and lay <07760> (8799) it on wood <06086>, and put

<07760> (8799) no fire <0784> under: and I will dress <06213>

(8799) the other <0259> bullock <06499>, and lay <05414> (8804)

it on wood <06086>, and put <07760> (8799) no fire <0784> under:

1Ki 18:24 And call <07121> (8804) ye on the name <08034> of

your gods <0430>, and I will call <07121> (8799) on the name

<08034> of the LORD <03068>: and the God <0430> that answereth

<06030> (8799) by fire <0784>, let him be God <0430>. And all

the people <05971> answered <06030> (8799) and said <0559>

(8799), It is well <02896> spoken <01697>.

1Ki 18:25 And Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799) unto the

prophets <05030> of Baal <01168>, Choose <0977> (8798) you one

<0259> bullock <06499> for yourselves, and dress <06213> (8798)

it first <07223>; for ye are many <07227>; and call <07121>

(8798) on the name <08034> of your gods <0430>, but put <07760>

(8799) no fire <0784> under.

1Ki 18:26 And they took <03947> (8799) the bullock <06499>

which was given <05414> (8804) them, and they dressed <06213>

(8799) it, and called <07121> (8799) on the name <08034> of Baal

<01168> from morning <01242> even until noon <06672>, saying

<0559> (8800), O Baal <01168>, hear <06030> (8798) us. But there

was no <0369> voice <06963>, nor any that answered <06030>

(8802). And they leaped <06452> (8762) upon the altar <04196>

which was made <06213> (8804).

1Ki 18:27 And it came to pass at noon <06672>, that Elijah

<0452> mocked <02048> (8762) them, and said <0559> (8799), Cry

<07121> (8798) aloud <01419> <06963>: for he is a god <0430>;

either he is talking <07879>, or he is pursuing <07873>, or he

is in a journey <01870>, or peradventure <0194> he sleepeth

<03463>, and must be awaked <03364> (8799).

1Ki 18:28 And they cried <07121> (8799) aloud <06963> <01419>,

and cut <01413> (8704) themselves after their manner <04941>

with knives <02719> and lancets <07420>, till the blood <01818>

gushed out <08210> (8800) upon them.

1Ki 18:29 And it came to pass, when midday <06672> was past

<05674> (8800), and they prophesied <05012> (8691) until the

time of the offering <05927> (8800) of the evening sacrifice

<04503>, that there was neither voice <06963>, nor any to answer

<06030> (8802), nor any that regarded <07182>.

1Ki 18:30 And Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799) unto all the

people <05971>, Come near <05066> (8798) unto me. And all the

people <05971> came near <05066> (8799) unto him. And he

repaired <07495> (8762) the altar <04196> of the LORD <03068>

that was broken down <02040> (8803).

1Ki 18:31 And Elijah <0452> took <03947> (8799) twelve <08147>

<06240> stones <068>, according to the number <04557> of the

tribes <07626> of the sons <01121> of Jacob <03290>, unto whom

the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came, saying <0559> (8800),

Israel <03478> shall be thy name <08034>:

1Ki 18:32 And with the stones <068> he built <01129> (8799) an

altar <04196> in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>: and he

made <06213> (8799) a trench <08585> about <05439> the altar

<04196>, as great as would contain <01004> two measures <05429>

of seed <02233>.

1Ki 18:33 And he put <06186> <00> the wood <06086> in order

<06186> (8799), and cut <05408> (8762) the bullock <06499> in

pieces, and laid <07760> (8799) him on the wood <06086>, and

said <0559> (8799), Fill <04390> (8798) four <0702> barrels

<03537> with water <04325>, and pour <03332> (8798) it on the

burnt sacrifice <05930>, and on the wood <06086>.

1Ki 18:34 And he said <0559> (8799), Do it the second time

<08138> (8798). And they did it the second time <08138> (8799).

And he said <0559> (8799), Do it the third time <08027> (8761).

And they did it the third time <08027> (8762).

1Ki 18:35 And the water <04325> ran <03212> (8799) round about

<05439> the altar <04196>; and he filled <04390> (8765) the

trench <08585> also with water <04325>.

1Ki 18:36 And it came to pass at the time of the offering

<05927> (8800) of the evening sacrifice <04503>, that Elijah

<0452> the prophet <05030> came near <05066> (8799), and said

<0559> (8799), LORD <03068> God <0430> of Abraham <085>, Isaac

<03327>, and of Israel <03478>, let it be known <03045> (8735)

this day <03117> that thou art God <0430> in Israel <03478>, and

that I am thy servant <05650>, and that I have done <06213>

(8804) all these things at thy word <01697>.

1Ki 18:37 Hear <06030> (8798) me, O LORD <03068>, hear <06030>

(8798) me, that this people <05971> may know <03045> (8799) that

thou art the LORD <03068> God <0430>, and that thou hast turned

<05437> <00> their heart <03820> back <05437> (8689) again

<0322>.

1Ki 18:38 Then the fire <0784> of the LORD <03068> fell <05307>

(8799), and consumed <0398> (8799) the burnt sacrifice <05930>,

and the wood <06086>, and the stones <068>, and the dust <06083>,

and licked up <03897> (8765) the water <04325> that was in the

trench <08585>.

1Ki 18:39 And when all the people <05971> saw <07200> (8799) it,

they fell <05307> (8799) on their faces <06440>: and they said

<0559> (8799), The LORD <03068>, he is the God <0430>; the LORD

<03068>, he is the God <0430>.

1Ki 18:40 And Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799) unto them, Take

<08610> (8798) the prophets <05030> of Baal <01168>; let not one

<0376> of them escape <04422> (8735). And they took <08610>

(8799) them: and Elijah <0452> brought them down <03381> (8686)

to the brook <05158> Kishon <07028>, and slew <07819> (8799)

them there.

1Ki 18:41 ¶ And Elijah <0452> said <0559> (8799) unto Ahab

<0256>, Get thee up <05927> (8798), eat <0398> (8798) and drink

<08354> (8798); for there is a sound <06963> of abundance

<01995> of rain <01653>.

1Ki 18:42 So Ahab <0256> went up <05927> (8799) to eat <0398>

(8800) and to drink <08354> (8800). And Elijah <0452> went up

<05927> (8804) to the top <07218> of Carmel <03760>; and he cast

himself down <01457> (8799) upon the earth <0776>, and put

<07760> (8799) his face <06440> between his knees <01290>,

1Ki 18:43 And said <0559> (8799) to his servant <05288>, Go up

<05927> (8798) now, look <05027> (8685) toward <01870> the sea

<03220>. And he went up <05927> (8799), and looked <05027>

(8686), and said <0559> (8799), There is nothing <03972>. And he

said <0559> (8799), Go again <07725> (8798) seven <07651> times

<06471>.

1Ki 18:44 And it came to pass at the seventh time <07637>, that

he said <0559> (8799), Behold, there ariseth <05927> (8802) a

little <06996> cloud <05645> out of the sea <03220>, like a

man’s <0376> hand <03709>. And he said <0559> (8799), Go up

<05927> (8798), say <0559> (8798) unto Ahab <0256>, Prepare

<0631> (8798) thy chariot, and get thee down <03381> (8798),

that the rain <01653> stop <06113> (8799) thee not.

1Ki 18:45 And it came to pass in the mean while <03541>, that

the heaven <08064> was black <06937> (8694) with clouds <05645>

and wind <07307>, and there was a great <01419> rain <01653>.

And Ahab <0256> rode <07392> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) to

Jezreel <03157>.

1Ki 18:46 And the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> was on

Elijah <0452>; and he girded up <08151> (8762) his loins <04975>,

and ran <07323> (8799) before <06440> Ahab <0256> to the

entrance <0935> (8800) of Jezreel <03157>.

1Ki 19:01 ¶ And Ahab <0256> told <05046> (8686) Jezebel <0348>

all that Elijah <0452> had done <06213> (8804), and withal how

he had slain <02026> (8804) all the prophets <05030> with the

sword <02719>.

1Ki 19:02 Then Jezebel <0348> sent <07971> (8799) a messenger

<04397> unto Elijah <0452>, saying <0559> (8800), So let the

gods <0430> do <06213> (8799) to me, and more <03254> (8686)

also, if I make <07760> (8799) not thy life <05315> as the life

<05315> of one <0259> of them by to morrow <04279> about this

time <06256>.

1Ki 19:03 And when he saw <07200> (8799) that, he arose <06965>

(8799), and went <03212> (8799) for his life <05315>, and came

<0935> (8799) to Beersheba <0884>, which belongeth to Judah

<03063>, and left <03240> (8686) his servant <05288> there.

1Ki 19:04 But he himself went <01980> (8804) a day’s <03117>

journey <01870> into the wilderness <04057>, and came <0935>

(8799) and sat down <03427> (8799) under a <0259> juniper tree

<07574>: and he requested <07592> (8799) for himself <05315>

that he might die <04191> (8800); and said <0559> (8799), It is

enough <07227>; now, O LORD <03068>, take away <03947> (8798) my

life <05315>; for I am not better <02896> than my fathers <01>.

1Ki 19:05 And as he lay <07901> (8799) and slept <03462> (8799)

under a <0259> juniper tree <07574>, behold, then an angel

<04397> touched <05060> (8802) him, and said <0559> (8799) unto

him, Arise <06965> (8798) and eat <0398> (8798).

1Ki 19:06 And he looked <05027> (8686), and, behold, there was

a cake <05692> baken on the coals <07529>, and a cruse <06835>

of water <04325> at his head <04763>. And he did eat <0398>

(8799) and drink <08354> (8799), and laid him down <07901>

(8799) again <07725> (8799).

1Ki 19:07 And the angel <04397> of the LORD <03068> came again

<07725> (8799) the second time <08145>, and touched <05060>

(8799) him, and said <0559> (8799), Arise <06965> (8798) and eat

<0398> (8798); because the journey <01870> is too great <07227>

for thee.

1Ki 19:08 And he arose <06965> (8799), and did eat <0398>

(8799) and drink <08354> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) in the

strength <03581> of that meat <0396> forty <0705> days <03117>

and forty <0705> nights <03915> unto Horeb <02722> the mount

<02022> of God <0430>.

1Ki 19:09 ¶ And he came <0935> (8799) thither unto a cave

<04631>, and lodged <03885> (8799) there; and, behold, the word

<01697> of the LORD <03068> came to him, and he said <0559>

(8799) unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah <0452>?

1Ki 19:10 And he said <0559> (8799), I have been very <07065>

(8763) jealous <07065> (8765) for the LORD <03068> God <0430> of

hosts <06635>: for the children <01121> of Israel <03478> have

forsaken <05800> (8804) thy covenant <01285>, thrown down

<02040> (8804) thine altars <04196>, and slain <02026> (8804)

thy prophets <05030> with the sword <02719>; and I, even I only,

am left <03498> (8735); and they seek <01245> (8762) my life

<05315>, to take it away <03947> (8800).

1Ki 19:11 And he said <0559> (8799), Go forth <03318> (8798),

and stand <05975> (8804) upon the mount <02022> before <06440>

the LORD <03068>. And, behold, the LORD <03068> passed by

<05674> (8802), and a great <01419> and strong <02389> wind

<07307> rent <06561> (8764) the mountains <02022>, and brake in

pieces <07665> (8764) the rocks <05553> before <06440> the LORD

<03068>; but the LORD <03068> was not in the wind <07307>: and

after <0310> the wind <07307> an earthquake <07494>; but the

LORD <03068> was not in the earthquake <07494>:

1Ki 19:12 And after <0310> the earthquake <07494> a fire <0784>;

but the LORD <03068> was not in the fire <0784>: and after

<0310> the fire <0784> a still <01827> small <01851> voice

<06963>.

1Ki 19:13 And it was so, when Elijah <0452> heard <08085>

(8800) it, that he wrapped <03874> (8686) his face <06440> in

his mantle <0155>, and went out <03318> (8799), and stood

<05975> (8799) in the entering in <06607> of the cave <04631>.

And, behold, there came a voice <06963> unto him, and said

<0559> (8799), What doest thou here, Elijah <0452>?

1Ki 19:14 And he said <0559> (8799), I have been very <07065>

(8763) jealous <07065> (8765) for the LORD <03068> God <0430> of

hosts <06635>: because the children <01121> of Israel <03478>

have forsaken <05800> (8804) thy covenant <01285>, thrown down

<02040> (8804) thine altars <04196>, and slain <02026> (8804)

thy prophets <05030> with the sword <02719>; and I, even I only,

am left <03498> (8735); and they seek <01245> (8762) my life

<05315>, to take it away <03947> (8800).

1Ki 19:15 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Go

<03212> (8798), return <07725> (8798) on thy way <01870> to the

wilderness <04057> of Damascus <01834>: and when thou comest

<0935> (8804), anoint <04886> (8804) Hazael <02371> to be king

<04428> over Syria <0758>:

1Ki 19:16 And Jehu <03058> the son <01121> of Nimshi <05250>

shalt thou anoint <04886> (8799) to be king <04428> over Israel

<03478>: and Elisha <0477> the son <01121> of Shaphat <08202> of

Abelmeholah <065> shalt thou anoint <04886> (8799) to be prophet

<05030> in thy room.

1Ki 19:17 And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth

<04422> (8737) the sword <02719> of Hazael <02371> shall Jehu

<03058> slay <04191> (8686): and him that escapeth <04422>

(8737) from the sword <02719> of Jehu <03058> shall Elisha

<0477> slay <04191> (8686).

1Ki 19:18 Yet I have left <07604> (8689) me seven <07651>

thousand <0505> in Israel <03478>, all the knees <01290> which

have not bowed <03766> (8804) unto Baal <01168>, and every mouth

<06310> which hath not kissed <05401> (8804) him.

1Ki 19:19 ¶ So he departed <03212> (8799) thence, and found

<04672> (8799) Elisha <0477> the son <01121> of Shaphat <08202>,

who was plowing <02790> (8802) with twelve <08147> <06240> yoke

<06776> of oxen before <06440> him, and he with the twelfth

<08147> <06240>: and Elijah <0452> passed <05674> (8799) by him,

and cast <07993> (8686) his mantle <0155> upon him.

1Ki 19:20 And he left <05800> (8799) the oxen <01241>, and ran

<07323> (8799) after <0310> Elijah <0452>, and said <0559>

(8799), Let me, I pray thee, kiss <05401> (8799) my father <01>

and my mother <0517>, and then I will follow <03212> (8799)

<0310> thee. And he said <0559> (8799) unto him, Go back <03212>

(8798) again <07725> (8798): for what have I done <06213> (8804)

to thee?

1Ki 19:21 And he returned back <07725> (8799) from him <0310>,

and took <03947> (8799) a yoke <06776> of oxen <01241>, and slew

<02076> (8799) them, and boiled <01310> (8765) their flesh

<01320> with the instruments <03627> of the oxen <01241>, and

gave <05414> (8799) unto the people <05971>, and they did eat

<0398> (8799). Then he arose <06965> (8799), and went <03212>

(8799) after <0310> Elijah <0452>, and ministered <08334> (8762)

unto him.

1Ki 20:01 ¶ And Benhadad <01130> the king <04428> of Syria

<0758> gathered <06908> <00> all his host <02428> together

<06908> (8804): and there were thirty <07970> and two <08147>

kings <04428> with him, and horses <05483>, and chariots <07393>:

and he went up <05927> (8799) and besieged <06696> (8799)

Samaria <08111>, and warred <03898> (8735) against it.

1Ki 20:02 And he sent <07971> (8799) messengers <04397> to Ahab

<0256> king <04428> of Israel <03478> into the city <05892>, and

said <0559> (8799) unto him, Thus saith <0559> (8804) Benhadad

<01130>,

1Ki 20:03 Thy silver <03701> and thy gold <02091> is mine; thy

wives <0802> also and thy children <01121>, even the goodliest

<02896>, are mine.

1Ki 20:04 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> answered

<06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799), My lord <0113>, O king

<04428>, according to thy saying <01697>, I am thine, and all

that I have.

1Ki 20:05 And the messengers <04397> came again <07725> (8799),

and said <0559> (8799), Thus speaketh <0559> (8804) Benhadad

<01130>, saying <0559> (8800), Although I have sent <07971>

(8804) unto thee, saying <0559> (8800), Thou shalt deliver

<05414> (8799) me thy silver <03701>, and thy gold <02091>, and

thy wives <0802>, and thy children <01121>;

1Ki 20:06 Yet I will send <07971> (8799) my servants <05650>

unto thee to morrow <04279> about this time <06256>, and they

shall search <02664> (8765) thine house <01004>, and the houses

<01004> of thy servants <05650>; and it shall be <01961> (8804),

that whatsoever is pleasant <04261> in thine eyes <05869>, they

shall put <07760> (8799) it in their hand <03027>, and take it

away <03947> (8804).

1Ki 20:07 Then the king <04428> of Israel <03478> called

<07121> (8799) all the elders <02205> of the land <0776>, and

said <0559> (8799), Mark <03045> (8798), I pray you, and see

<07200> (8798) how this man seeketh <01245> (8764) mischief

<07451>: for he sent <07971> (8804) unto me for my wives <0802>,

and for my children <01121>, and for my silver <03701>, and for

my gold <02091>; and I denied <04513> (8804) him not.

1Ki 20:08 And all the elders <02205> and all the people <05971>

said <0559> (8799) unto him, Hearken <08085> (8799) not unto him,

nor consent <014> (8799).

1Ki 20:09 Wherefore he said <0559> (8799) unto the messengers

<04397> of Benhadad <01130>, Tell <0559> (8798) my lord <0113>

the king <04428>, All that thou didst send <07971> (8804) for to

thy servant <05650> at the first <07223> I will do <06213>

(8799): but this thing <01697> I may <03201> (8799) not do

<06213> (8800). And the messengers <04397> departed <03212>

(8799), and brought <07725> <00> him word <01697> again <07725>

(8686).

1Ki 20:10 And Benhadad <01130> sent <07971> (8799) unto him,

and said <0559> (8799), The gods <0430> do so <06213> (8799)

unto me, and more also <03254> (8686), if the dust <06083> of

Samaria <08111> shall suffice <05606> (8799) for handfuls

<08168> for all the people <05971> that follow <07272> me.

1Ki 20:11 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> answered

<06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799), Tell <01696> (8761) him,

Let not him that girdeth <02296> (8802) on his harness boast

<01984> (8691) himself as he that putteth it off <06605> (8764).

1Ki 20:12 ¶ And it came to pass, when Benhadad heard <08085>

(8800) this message <01697>, as he was drinking <08354> (8802),

he and the kings <04428> in the pavilions <05521>, that he said

<0559> (8799) unto his servants <05650>, Set <07760> (8798)

yourselves in array. And they set <07760> (8799) themselves in

array against the city <05892>.

1Ki 20:13 And, behold, there came <05066> (8738) a <0259>

prophet <05030> unto Ahab <0256> king <04428> of Israel <03478>,

saying <0559> (8799), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>,

Hast thou seen <07200> (8804) all this great <01419> multitude

<01995>? behold, I will deliver <05414> (8802) it into thine

hand <03027> this day <03117>; and thou shalt know <03045>

(8804) that I am the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 20:14 And Ahab <0256> said <0559> (8799), By whom? And he

said <0559> (8799), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>,

Even by the young men <05288> of the princes <08269> of the

provinces <04082>. Then he said <0559> (8799), Who shall order

<0631> (8799) the battle <04421>? And he answered <0559> (8799),

Thou.

1Ki 20:15 Then he numbered <06485> (8799) the young men <05288>

of the princes <08269> of the provinces <04082>, and they were

two <08147> hundred <03967> and thirty <07970> two <08147>: and

after <0310> them he numbered <06485> (8804) all the people

<05971>, even all the children <01121> of Israel <03478>, being

seven <07651> thousand <0505>.

1Ki 20:16 And they went out <03318> (8799) at noon <06672>. But

Benhadad <01130> was drinking <08354> (8802) himself drunk

<07910> in the pavilions <05521>, he and the kings <04428>, the

thirty <07970> and two <08147> kings <04428> that helped <05826>

(8802) him.

1Ki 20:17 And the young men <05288> of the princes <08269> of

the provinces <04082> went out <03318> (8799) first <07223>; and

Benhadad <01130> sent out <07971> (8799), and they told <05046>

(8686) him, saying <0559> (8800), There are men <0582> come out

<03318> (8804) of Samaria <08111>.

1Ki 20:18 And he said <0559> (8799), Whether they be come out

<03318> (8804) for peace <07965>, take <08610> (8798) them alive

<02416>; or whether they be come out <03318> (8804) for war

<04421>, take <08610> (8798) them alive <02416>.

1Ki 20:19 So these young men <05288> of the princes <08269> of

the provinces <04082> came out <03318> (8804) of the city

<05892>, and the army <02428> which followed <0310> them.

1Ki 20:20 And they slew <05221> (8686) every one <0376> his man

<0376>: and the Syrians <0758> fled <05127> (8799); and Israel

<03478> pursued <07291> (8799) them: and Benhadad <01130> the

king <04428> of Syria <0758> escaped <04422> (8735) on an horse

<05483> with the horsemen <06571>.

1Ki 20:21 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> went out

<03318> (8799), and smote <05221> (8686) the horses <05483> and

chariots <07393>, and slew <05221> (8689) the Syrians <0758>

with a great <01419> slaughter <04347>.

1Ki 20:22 ¶ And the prophet <05030> came <05066> (8799) to the

king <04428> of Israel <03478>, and said <0559> (8799) unto him,

Go <03212> (8798), strengthen <02388> (8690) thyself, and mark

<03045> (8798), and see <07200> (8798) what thou doest <06213>

(8799): for at the return <08666> of the year <08141> the king

<04428> of Syria <0758> will come up <05927> (8802) against thee.

1Ki 20:23 And the servants <05650> of the king <04428> of Syria

<0758> said <0559> (8804) unto him, Their gods <0430> are gods

<0430> of the hills <02022>; therefore they were stronger

<02388> (8804) than we; but <0199> let us fight <03898> (8735)

against them in the plain <04334>, and surely <03808> we shall

be stronger <02388> (8799) than they.

1Ki 20:24 And do <06213> (8798) this thing <01697>, Take

<05493> (8685) the kings <04428> away, every man <0376> out of

his place <04725>, and put <07760> (8798) captains <06346> in

their rooms:

1Ki 20:25 And number <04487> (8799) thee an army <02428>, like

the army <02428> that thou hast lost <05307> (8802), horse

<05483> for horse <05483>, and chariot <07393> for chariot

<07393>: and we will fight <03898> (8735) against <0854> them in

the plain <04334>, and surely we shall be stronger <02388>

(8799) than they. And he hearkened <08085> (8799) unto their

voice <06963>, and did so <06213> (8799).

1Ki 20:26 And it came to pass at the return <08666> of the year

<08141>, that Benhadad <01130> numbered <06485> (8799) the

Syrians <0758>, and went up <05927> (8799) to Aphek <0663>, to

fight <04421> against Israel <03478>.

1Ki 20:27 And the children <01121> of Israel <03478> were

numbered <06485> (8719), and were all present <03557> (8791),

and went <03212> (8799) against <07125> (8800) them: and the

children <01121> of Israel <03478> pitched <02583> (8799) before

them like two <08147> little flocks <02835> of kids <05795>; but

the Syrians <0758> filled <04390> (8765) the country <0776>.

1Ki 20:28 And there came <05066> (8799) a man <0376> of God

<0430>, and spake <0559> (8799) unto the king <04428> of Israel

<03478>, and said <0559> (8799), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the

LORD <03068>, Because the Syrians <0758> have said <0559> (8804),

The LORD <03068> is God <0430> of the hills <02022>, but he is

not God <0430> of the valleys <06010>, therefore will I deliver

<05414> (8804) all this great <01419> multitude <01995> into

thine hand <03027>, and ye shall know <03045> (8804) that I am

the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 20:29 And they pitched <02583> (8799) one <0428> over

against <05227> the other <0428> seven <07651> days <03117>. And

so it was, that in the seventh <07637> day <03117> the battle

<04421> was joined <07126> (8799): and the children <01121> of

Israel <03478> slew <05221> (8686) of the Syrians <0758> an

hundred <03967> thousand <0505> footmen <07273> in one <0259>

day <03117>.

1Ki 20:30 But the rest <03498> (8737) fled <05127> (8799) to

Aphek <0663>, into the city <05892>; and there a wall <02346>

fell <05307> (8799) upon twenty <06242> and seven <07651>

thousand <0505> of the men <0376> that were left <03498> (8737).

And Benhadad <01130> fled <05127> (8804), and came <0935> (8799)

into the city <05892>, into an inner <02315> chamber <02315>.

1Ki 20:31 ¶ And his servants <05650> said <0559> (8799) unto him,

Behold now, we have heard <08085> (8804) that the kings <04428>

of the house <01004> of Israel <03478> are merciful <02617>

kings <04428>: let us, I pray thee, put <07760> (8799) sackcloth

<08242> on our loins <04975>, and ropes <02256> upon our heads

<07218>, and go out <03318> (8799) to the king <04428> of Israel

<03478>: peradventure he will save <02421> (8762) thy life

<05315>.

1Ki 20:32 So they girded <02296> (8799) sackcloth <08242> on

their loins <04975>, and put ropes <02256> on their heads

<07218>, and came <0935> (8799) to the king <04428> of Israel

<03478>, and said <0559> (8799), Thy servant <05650> Benhadad

<01130> saith <0559> (8804), I pray thee, let me live <02421>

(8799) <05315>. And he said <0559> (8799), Is he yet alive

<02416>? he is my brother <0251>.

1Ki 20:33 Now the men <0582> did diligently observe <05172>

(8762) whether any thing would come from him, and did hastily

<04116> (8762) catch <02480> (8686) it: and they said <0559>

(8799), Thy brother <0251> Benhadad <01130>. Then he said <0559>

(8799), Go <0935> (8798) ye, bring <03947> (8798) him. Then

Benhadad <01130> came forth <03318> (8799) to him; and he caused

him to come up <05927> (8686) into the chariot <04818>.

1Ki 20:34 And Benhadad said <0559> (8799) unto him, The cities

<05892>, which my father <01> took <03947> (8804) from thy

father <01>, I will restore <07725> (8686); and thou shalt make

<07760> (8799) streets <02351> for thee in Damascus <01834>, as

my father <01> made <07760> (8804) in Samaria <08111>. Then said

Ahab, I will send thee away <07971> (8762) with this covenant

<01285>. So he made <03772> (8799) a covenant <01285> with him,

and sent him away <07971> (8762).

1Ki 20:35 And a certain <0259> man <0376> of the sons <01121>

of the prophets <05030> said <0559> (8804) unto his neighbour

<07453> in the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, Smite <05221>

(8685) me, I pray thee. And the man <0376> refused <03985>

(8762) to smite <05221> (8687) him.

1Ki 20:36 Then said <0559> (8799) he unto him, Because thou

hast not obeyed <08085> (8804) the voice <06963> of the LORD

<03068>, behold, as soon as thou art departed <01980> (8802)

from me, a lion <0738> shall slay <05221> (8689) thee. And as

soon as he was departed <03212> (8799) from him <0681>, a lion

<0738> found <04672> (8799) him, and slew <05221> (8686) him.

1Ki 20:37 Then he found <04672> (8799) another <0312> man

<0376>, and said <0559> (8799), Smite <05221> (8685) me, I pray

thee. And the man <0376> smote <05221> (8686) him, so that in

smiting <05221> (8687) he wounded <06481> (8800) him.

1Ki 20:38 So the prophet <05030> departed <03212> (8799), and

waited <05975> (8799) for the king <04428> by the way <01870>,

and disguised <02664> (8691) himself with ashes <0666> upon his

face <05869>.

1Ki 20:39 And as the king <04428> passed by <05674> (8802), he

cried <06817> (8804) unto the king <04428>: and he said <0559>

(8799), Thy servant <05650> went out <03318> (8804) into the

midst <07130> of the battle <04421>; and, behold, a man <0376>

turned aside <05493> (8804), and brought <0935> (8686) a man

<0376> unto me, and said <0559> (8799), Keep <08104> (8798) this

man <0376>: if by any means <06485> (8736) he be missing <06485>

(8735), then shall thy life <05315> be for his life <05315>, or

else thou shalt pay <08254> (8799) a talent <03603> of silver

<03701>.

1Ki 20:40 And as thy servant <05650> was busy <06213> (8802)

here and there, he was gone <0369>. And the king <04428> of

Israel <03478> said <0559> (8799) unto him, So shall thy

judgment <04941> be; thyself hast decided <02782> (8804) it.

1Ki 20:41 And he hasted <04116> (8762), and took the ashes

<0666> away <05493> (8686) from his face <05869>; and the king

<04428> of Israel <03478> discerned <05234> (8686) him that he

was of the prophets <05030>.

1Ki 20:42 And he said <0559> (8799) unto him, Thus saith <0559>

(8804) the LORD <03068>, Because thou hast let go <07971> (8765)

out of thy hand <03027> a man <0376> whom I appointed to utter

destruction <02764>, therefore thy life <05315> shall go for his

life <05315>, and thy people <05971> for his people <05971>.

1Ki 20:43 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> went <03212>

(8799) to his house <01004> heavy <05620> and displeased <02198>,

and came <0935> (8799) to Samaria <08111>.

1Ki 21:01 ¶ And it came to pass after <0310> these things

<01697>, that Naboth <05022> the Jezreelite <03158> had a

vineyard <03754>, which was in Jezreel <03157>, hard by <0681>

the palace <01964> of Ahab <0256> king <04428> of Samaria

<08111>.

1Ki 21:02 And Ahab <0256> spake <01696> (8762) unto Naboth

<05022>, saying <0559> (8800), Give <05414> (8798) me thy

vineyard <03754>, that I may have it for a garden <01588> of

herbs <03419>, because it is near <07138> unto <0681> my house

<01004>: and I will give <05414> (8799) thee for it a better

<02896> vineyard <03754> than it; or, if it seem good <02896> to

thee <05869>, I will give <05414> (8799) thee the worth <04242>

of it in money <03701>.

1Ki 21:03 And Naboth <05022> said <0559> (8799) to Ahab <0256>,

The LORD <03068> forbid <02486> it me, that I should give

<05414> (8800) the inheritance <05159> of my fathers <01> unto

thee.

1Ki 21:04 And Ahab <0256> came <0935> (8799) into his house

<01004> heavy <05620> and displeased <02198> because of the word

<01697> which Naboth <05022> the Jezreelite <03158> had spoken

<01696> (8765) to him: for he had said <0559> (8799), I will not

give <05414> (8799) thee the inheritance <05159> of my fathers

<01>. And he laid him down <07901> (8799) upon his bed <04296>,

and turned away <05437> (8686) his face <06440>, and would eat

<0398> (8804) no bread <03899>.

1Ki 21:05 ¶ But Jezebel <0348> his wife <0802> came <0935>

(8799) to him, and said <01696> (8762) unto him, Why is thy

spirit <07307> so sad <05620>, that thou eatest <0398> (8802) no

bread <03899>?

1Ki 21:06 And he said <01696> (8762) unto her, Because I spake

<01696> (8762) unto Naboth <05022> the Jezreelite <03158>, and

said <0559> (8799) unto him, Give <05414> (8798) me thy vineyard

<03754> for money <03701>; or else, if it please <02655> thee, I

will give <05414> (8799) thee another vineyard <03754> for it:

and he answered <0559> (8799), I will not give <05414> (8799)

thee my vineyard <03754>.

1Ki 21:07 And Jezebel <0348> his wife <0802> said <0559> (8799)

unto him, Dost thou now govern <06213> (8799) the kingdom

<04410> of Israel <03478>? arise <06965> (8798), and eat <0398>

(8798) bread <03899>, and let thine heart <03820> be merry

<03190> (8799): I will give <05414> (8799) thee the vineyard

<03754> of Naboth <05022> the Jezreelite <03158>.

1Ki 21:08 So she wrote <03789> (8799) letters <05612> in Ahab’s

<0256> name <08034>, and sealed <02856> (8799) them with his

seal <02368>, and sent <07971> (8799) the letters <05612> unto

the elders <02205> and to the nobles <02715> that were in his

city <05892>, dwelling <03427> (8802) with Naboth <05022>.

1Ki 21:09 And she wrote <03789> (8799) in the letters <05612>,

saying <0559> (8800), Proclaim <07121> (8798) a fast <06685>,

and set <03427> (8685) Naboth <05022> on high <07218> among the

people <05971>:

1Ki 21:10 And set <03427> (8685) two <08147> men <0582>, sons

<01121> of Belial <01100>, before him, to bear witness <05749>

(8686) against him, saying <0559> (8800), Thou didst blaspheme

<01288> (8765) God <0430> and the king <04428>. And then carry

him out <03318> (8689), and stone <05619> (8798) him, that he

may die <04191> (8799).

1Ki 21:11 And the men <0582> of his city <05892>, even the

elders <02205> and the nobles <02715> who were the inhabitants

<03427> (8802) in his city <05892>, did <06213> (8799) as

Jezebel <0348> had sent <07971> (8804) unto them, and as it was

written <03789> (8803) in the letters <05612> which she had sent

<07971> (8804) unto them.

1Ki 21:12 They proclaimed <07121> (8804) a fast <06685>, and

set <03427> (8689) Naboth <05022> on high <07218> among the

people <05971>.

1Ki 21:13 And there came <0935> (8799) in two <08147> men

<0582>, children <01121> of Belial <01100>, and sat <03427>

(8799) before him: and the men <0582> of Belial <01100>

witnessed <05749> (8686) against him, even against Naboth

<05022>, in the presence of the people <05971>, saying <0559>

(8800), Naboth <05022> did blaspheme <01288> (8765) God <0430>

and the king <04428>. Then they carried him forth <03318> (8686)

out <02351> of the city <05892>, and stoned <05619> (8799) him

with stones <068>, that he died <04191> (8799).

1Ki 21:14 Then they sent <07971> (8799) to Jezebel <0348>,

saying <0559> (8800), Naboth <05022> is stoned <05619> (8795),

and is dead <04191> (8799).

1Ki 21:15 And it came to pass, when Jezebel <0348> heard

<08085> (8800) that Naboth <05022> was stoned <05619> (8795),

and was dead <04191> (8799), that Jezebel <0348> said <0559>

(8799) to Ahab <0256>, Arise <06965> (8798), take possession

<03423> (8798) of the vineyard <03754> of Naboth <05022> the

Jezreelite <03158>, which he refused <03985> (8765) to give

<05414> (8800) thee for money <03701>: for Naboth <05022> is not

alive <02416>, but dead <04191> (8804).

1Ki 21:16 And it came to pass, when Ahab <0256> heard <08085>

(8800) that Naboth <05022> was dead <04191> (8804), that Ahab

<0256> rose up <06965> (8799) to go down <03381> (8800) to the

vineyard <03754> of Naboth <05022> the Jezreelite <03158>, to

take possession <03423> (8800) of it.

1Ki 21:17 ¶ And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to

Elijah <0452> the Tishbite <08664>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 21:18 Arise <06965> (8798), go down <03381> (8798) to meet

<07125> (8800) Ahab <0256> king <04428> of Israel <03478>, which

is in Samaria <08111>: behold, he is in the vineyard <03754> of

Naboth <05022>, whither he is gone down <03381> (8804) to

possess <03423> (8800) it.

1Ki 21:19 And thou shalt speak <01696> (8765) unto him, saying

<0559> (8800), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, Hast

thou killed <07523> (8804), and also taken possession <03423>

(8804)? And thou shalt speak <01696> (8765) unto him, saying

<0559> (8800), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>, In the

place <04725> where dogs <03611> licked <03952> (8804) the blood

<01818> of Naboth <05022> shall dogs <03611> lick <03952> (8799)

thy blood <01818>, even thine.

1Ki 21:20 And Ahab <0256> said <0559> (8799) to Elijah <0452>,

Hast thou found <04672> (8804) me, O mine enemy <0341> (8802)?

And he answered <0559> (8799), I have found <04672> (8804) thee:

because thou hast sold <04376> (8692) thyself to work <06213>

(8800) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>.

1Ki 21:21 Behold, I will bring <0935> (8688) evil <07451> upon

thee, and will take away <01197> (8765) thy posterity <0310>,

and will cut off <03772> (8689) from Ahab <0256> him that

pisseth <08366> (8688) against the wall <07023>, and him that is

shut up <06113> (8803) and left <05800> (8803) in Israel <03478>,

1Ki 21:22 And will make <05414> (8804) thine house <01004> like

the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat

<05028>, and like the house <01004> of Baasha <01201> the son

<01121> of Ahijah <0281>, for the provocation <03708> wherewith

thou hast provoked me to anger <03707> (8689), and made Israel

<03478> to sin <02398> (8686).

1Ki 21:23 And of Jezebel <0348> also spake <01696> (8765) the

LORD <03068>, saying <0559> (8800), The dogs <03611> shall eat

<0398> (8799) Jezebel <0348> by the wall <02426> of Jezreel

<03157>.

1Ki 21:24 Him that dieth <04191> (8801) of Ahab <0256> in the

city <05892> the dogs <03611> shall eat <0398> (8799); and him

that dieth <04191> (8801) in the field <07704> shall the fowls

<05775> of the air <08064> eat <0398> (8799).

1Ki 21:25 But there was none like unto Ahab <0256>, which did

sell <04376> (8694) himself to work <06213> (8800) wickedness

<07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, whom Jezebel

<0348> his wife <0802> stirred up <05496> (8689).

1Ki 21:26 And he did very <03966> abominably <08581> (8686) in

following <03212> (8800) <0310> idols <01544>, according to all

things as did <06213> (8804) the Amorites <0567>, whom the LORD

<03068> cast out <03423> (8689) before <06440> the children

<01121> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 21:27 And it came to pass, when Ahab <0256> heard <08085>

(8800) those words <01697>, that he rent <07167> (8799) his

clothes <0899>, and put <07760> (8799) sackcloth <08242> upon

his flesh <01320>, and fasted <06684> (8799), and lay <07901>

(8799) in sackcloth <08242>, and went <01980> (8762) softly

<0328>.

1Ki 21:28 And the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> came to

Elijah <0452> the Tishbite <08664>, saying <0559> (8800),

1Ki 21:29 Seest <07200> (8804) thou how Ahab <0256> humbleth

<03665> (8738) himself before <06440> me? because <03282> he

humbleth <03665> (8738) himself before <06440> me, I will not

bring <0935> (8686) the evil <07451> in his days <03117>: but in

his son’s <01121> days <03117> will I bring <0935> (8686) the

evil <07451> upon his house <01004>.

1Ki 22:01 ¶ And they continued <03427> (8799) three <07969>

years <08141> without war <04421> between Syria <0758> and

Israel <03478>.

1Ki 22:02 And it came to pass in the third <07992> year <08141>,

that Jehoshaphat <03092> the king <04428> of Judah <03063> came

down <03381> (8799) to the king <04428> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 22:03 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> said <0559>

(8799) unto his servants <05650>, Know <03045> (8804) ye that

Ramoth <07433> in Gilead <01568> is ours, and we be still

<02814> (8688), and take <03947> (8800) it not out of the hand

<03027> of the king <04428> of Syria <0758>?

1Ki 22:04 And he said <0559> (8799) unto Jehoshaphat <03092>,

Wilt thou go <03212> (8799) with me to battle <04421> to

Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>? And Jehoshaphat <03092> said

<0559> (8799) to the king <04428> of Israel <03478>, I am as

thou <03644> art, my people <05971> as thy people <05971>, my

horses <05483> as thy horses <05483>.

1Ki 22:05 And Jehoshaphat <03092> said <0559> (8799) unto the

king <04428> of Israel <03478>, Enquire <01875> (8798), I pray

thee, at the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> to day <03117>.

1Ki 22:06 Then the king <04428> of Israel <03478> gathered

<06908> <00> the prophets <05030> together <06908> (8799), about

four <0702> hundred <03967> men <0376>, and said <0559> (8799)

unto them, Shall I go <03212> (8799) against Ramothgilead

<07433> <01568> to battle <04421>, or shall I forbear <02308>

(8799)? And they said <0559> (8799), Go up <05927> (8798); for

the Lord <0136> shall deliver <05414> (8799) it into the hand

<03027> of the king <04428>.

1Ki 22:07 And Jehoshaphat <03092> said <0559> (8799), Is there

not here a prophet <05030> of the LORD <03068> besides <05750>,

that we might enquire <01875> (8799) of him?

1Ki 22:08 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> said <0559>

(8799) unto Jehoshaphat <03092>, There is yet one <0259> man

<0376>, Micaiah <04321> the son <01121> of Imlah <03229>, by

whom we may enquire <01875> (8800) of the LORD <03068>: but I

hate <08130> (8804) him; for he doth not prophesy <05012> (8691)

good <02896> concerning me, but evil <07451>. And Jehoshaphat

<03092> said <0559> (8799), Let not the king <04428> say <0559>

(8799) so.

1Ki 22:09 Then the king <04428> of Israel <03478> called

<07121> (8799) an <0259> officer <05631>, and said <0559> (8799),

Hasten <04116> (8761) hither Micaiah <04321> the son <01121> of

Imlah <03229>.

1Ki 22:10 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> and

Jehoshaphat <03092> the king <04428> of Judah <03063> sat

<03427> (8802) each <0376> on his throne <03678>, having put on

<03847> (8794) their robes <0899>, in a void place <01637> in

the entrance <06607> of the gate <08179> of Samaria <08111>; and

all the prophets <05030> prophesied <05012> (8693) before

<06440> them.

1Ki 22:11 And Zedekiah <06667> the son <01121> of Chenaanah

<03668> made <06213> (8799) him horns <07161> of iron <01270>:

and he said <0559> (8799), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD

<03068>, With these shalt thou push <05055> (8762) the Syrians

<0758>, until thou have consumed <03615> (8763) them.

1Ki 22:12 And all the prophets <05030> prophesied <05012>

(8737) so, saying <0559> (8800), Go up <05927> (8798) to

Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>, and prosper <06743> (8685): for

the LORD <03068> shall deliver <05414> (8804) it into the king’s

<04428> hand <03027>.

1Ki 22:13 And the messenger <04397> that was gone <01980>

(8804) to call <07121> (8800) Micaiah <04321> spake <01696>

(8765) unto him, saying <0559> (8800), Behold now, the words

<01697> of the prophets <05030> declare good <02896> unto the

king <04428> with one <0259> mouth <06310>: let thy word <01697>,

I pray thee, be like the word <01697> of one <0259> of them,

and speak <01696> (8765) that which is good <02896>.

1Ki 22:14 And Micaiah <04321> said <0559> (8799), As the LORD

<03068> liveth <02416>, what the LORD <03068> saith <0559>

(8799) unto me, that will I speak <01696> (8762).

1Ki 22:15 ¶ So he came <0935> (8799) to the king <04428>. And

the king <04428> said <0559> (8799) unto him, Micaiah <04321>,

shall we go <03212> (8799) against Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>

to battle <04421>, or shall we forbear <02308> (8799)? And he

answered <0559> (8799) him, Go <05927> (8798), and prosper

<06743> (8685): for the LORD <03068> shall deliver <05414>

(8804) it into the hand <03027> of the king <04428>.

1Ki 22:16 And the king <04428> said <0559> (8799) unto him, How

many times <06471> shall I adjure <07650> (8688) thee that thou

tell <01696> (8762) me nothing but that which is true <0571> in

the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>?

1Ki 22:17 And he said <0559> (8799), I saw <07200> (8804) all

Israel <03478> scattered <06327> (8737) upon the hills <02022>,

as sheep <06629> that have not a shepherd <07462> (8802): and

the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799), These have no master <0113>:

let them return <07725> (8799) every man <0376> to his house

<01004> in peace <07965>.

1Ki 22:18 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> said <0559>

(8799) unto Jehoshaphat <03092>, Did I not tell <0559> (8804)

thee that he would prophesy <05012> (8691) no good <02896>

concerning me, but evil <07451>?

1Ki 22:19 And he said <0559> (8799), Hear <08085> (8798) thou

therefore the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>: I saw <07200>

(8804) the LORD <03068> sitting <03427> (8802) on his throne

<03678>, and all the host <06635> of heaven <08064> standing

<05975> (8802) by him on his right hand <03225> and on his left

<08040>.

1Ki 22:20 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799), Who shall

persuade <06601> (8762) Ahab <0256>, that he may go up <05927>

(8799) and fall <05307> (8799) at Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>?

And one said <0559> (8799) on this manner <03541>, and another

said <0559> (8802) on that manner <03541>.

1Ki 22:21 And there came forth <03318> (8799) a spirit <07307>,

and stood <05975> (8799) before <06440> the LORD <03068>, and

said <0559> (8799), I will persuade <06601> (8762) him.

1Ki 22:22 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto him,

Wherewith? And he said <0559> (8799), I will go forth <03318>

(8799), and I will be a lying <08267> spirit <07307> in the

mouth <06310> of all his prophets <05030>. And he said <0559>

(8799), Thou shalt persuade <06601> (8762) him, and prevail

<03201> (8799) also: go forth <03318> (8798), and do <06213>

(8798) so.

1Ki 22:23 Now therefore, behold, the LORD <03068> hath put

<05414> (8804) a lying <08267> spirit <07307> in the mouth

<06310> of all these thy prophets <05030>, and the LORD <03068>

hath spoken <01696> (8765) evil <07451> concerning thee.

1Ki 22:24 But Zedekiah <06667> the son <01121> of Chenaanah

<03668> went near <05066> (8799), and smote <05221> (8686)

Micaiah <04321> on the cheek <03895>, and said <0559> (8799),

Which way <0335> went <05674> (8804) the Spirit <07307> of the

LORD <03068> from me to speak <01696> (8763) unto thee?

1Ki 22:25 And Micaiah <04321> said <0559> (8799), Behold, thou

shalt see <07200> (8802) in that day <03117>, when thou shalt go

<0935> (8799) into an inner <02315> chamber <02315> to hide

<02247> (8736) thyself.

1Ki 22:26 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> said <0559>

(8799), Take <03947> (8798) Micaiah <04321>, and carry him back

<07725> (8685) unto Amon <0526> the governor <08269> of the city

<05892>, and to Joash <03101> the king’s <04428> son <01121>;

1Ki 22:27 And say <0559> (8804), Thus saith <0559> (8804) the

king <04428>, Put <07760> (8798) this fellow in the prison

<01004> <03608>, and feed <0398> (8685) him with bread <03899>

of affliction <03906> and with water <04325> of affliction

<03906>, until I come <0935> (8800) in peace <07965>.

1Ki 22:28 And Micaiah <04321> said <0559> (8799), If thou

return <07725> (8799) at all <07725> (8800) in peace <07965>,

the LORD <03068> hath not spoken <01696> (8765) by me. And he

said <0559> (8799), Hearken <08085> (8798), O people <05971>,

every one of you.

1Ki 22:29 ¶ So the king <04428> of Israel <03478> and

Jehoshaphat <03092> the king <04428> of Judah <03063> went up

<05927> (8799) to Ramothgilead <07433> <01568>.

1Ki 22:30 And the king <04428> of Israel <03478> said <0559>

(8799) unto Jehoshaphat <03092>, I will disguise <02664> (8692)

myself, and enter <0935> (8800) into the battle <04421>; but put

thou on <03847> (8798) thy robes <0899>. And the king <04428> of

Israel <03478> disguised <02664> (8691) himself, and went <0935>

(8799) into the battle <04421>.

1Ki 22:31 But the king <04428> of Syria <0758> commanded

<06680> (8765) his thirty <07970> and two <08147> captains

<08269> that had rule over his chariots <07393>, saying <0559>

(8800), Fight <03898> (8735) neither with small <06996> nor

great <01419>, save only with the king <04428> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 22:32 And it came to pass, when the captains <08269> of the

chariots <07393> saw <07200> (8800) Jehoshaphat <03092>, that

they said <0559> (8804), Surely it is the king <04428> of Israel

<03478>. And they turned aside <05493> (8799) to fight <03898>

(8736) against him: and Jehoshaphat <03092> cried out <02199>

(8799).

1Ki 22:33 And it came to pass, when the captains <08269> of the

chariots <07393> perceived <07200> (8800) that it was not the

king <04428> of Israel <03478>, that they turned back <07725>

(8799) from pursuing <0310> him.

1Ki 22:34 And a certain man <0376> drew <04900> (8804) a bow

<07198> at a venture <08537>, and smote <05221> (8686) the king

<04428> of Israel <03478> between the joints <01694> of the

harness <08302>: wherefore he said <0559> (8799) unto the driver

of his chariot <07395>, Turn <02015> (8798) thine hand <03027>,

and carry me out <03318> (8685) of the host <04264>; for I am

wounded <02470> (8717).

1Ki 22:35 And the battle <04421> increased <05927> (8799) that

day <03117>: and the king <04428> was stayed up <05975> (8716)

in his chariot <04818> against <05227> the Syrians <0758>, and

died <04191> (8799) at even <06153>: and the blood <01818> ran

out <03332> (8799) of the wound <04347> into the midst <02436>

of the chariot <07393>.

1Ki 22:36 And there went <05674> (8799) a proclamation <07440>

throughout the host <04264> about the going down <0935> (8800)

of the sun <08121>, saying <0559> (8800), Every man <0376> to

his city <05892>, and every man <0376> to his own country <0776>.

1Ki 22:37 So the king <04428> died <04191> (8799), and was

brought <0935> (8799) to Samaria <08111>; and they buried

<06912> (8799) the king <04428> in Samaria <08111>.

1Ki 22:38 And one washed <07857> (8799) the chariot <07393> in

the pool <01295> of Samaria <08111>; and the dogs <03611> licked

up <03952> (8799) his blood <01818>; and they washed <07364>

(8804) his armour <02185>; according unto the word <01697> of

the LORD <03068> which he spake <01696> (8765).

1Ki 22:39 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Ahab

<0256>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), and the ivory

<08127> house <01004> which he made <01129> (8804), and all the

cities <05892> that he built <01129> (8804), are they not

written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles

<01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478>?

1Ki 22:40 So Ahab <0256> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers

<01>; and Ahaziah <0274> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799)

in his stead.

1Ki 22:41 ¶ And Jehoshaphat <03092> the son <01121> of Asa

<0609> began to reign <04427> (8804) over Judah <03063> in the

fourth <0702> year <08141> of Ahab <0256> king <04428> of Israel

<03478>.

1Ki 22:42 Jehoshaphat <03092> was thirty <07970> and five

<02568> years <08141> old <01121> when he began to reign <04427>

(8800); and he reigned <04427> (8804) twenty <06242> and five

<02568> years <08141> in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother’s

<0517> name <08034> was Azubah <05806> the daughter <01323> of

Shilhi <07977>.

1Ki 22:43 And he walked <03212> (8799) in all the ways <01870>

of Asa <0609> his father <01>; he turned not aside <05493>

(8804) from it, doing <06213> (8800) that which was right

<03477> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>: nevertheless

the high places <01116> were not taken away <05493> (8804); for

the people <05971> offered <02076> (8764) and burnt incense

<06999> (8764) yet in the high places <01116>.

1Ki 22:44 And Jehoshaphat <03092> made peace <07999> (8686)

with the king <04428> of Israel <03478>.

1Ki 22:45 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of

Jehoshaphat <03092>, and his might <01369> that he shewed

<06213> (8804), and how he warred <03898> (8738), are they not

written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles

<01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>?

1Ki 22:46 And the remnant <03499> of the sodomites <06945>,

which remained <07604> (8738) in the days <03117> of his father

<01> Asa <0609>, he took <01197> (8765) out of the land <0776>.

1Ki 22:47 There was then no king <04428> in Edom <0123>: a

deputy <05324> (8737) was king <04428>.

1Ki 22:48 Jehoshaphat <03092> made <06213> (8804) (8675)

<06240> ships <0591> of Tharshish <08659> to go <03212> (8800)

to Ophir <0211> for gold <02091>: but they went <01980> (8804)

not; for the ships <0591> were broken <07665> (8738) at

Eziongeber <06100>.

1Ki 22:49 Then said <0559> (8804) Ahaziah <0274> the son

<01121> of Ahab <0256> unto Jehoshaphat <03092>, Let my servants

<05650> go <03212> (8799) with thy servants <05650> in the ships

<0591>. But Jehoshaphat <03092> would <014> (8804) not.

1Ki 22:50 And Jehoshaphat <03092> slept <07901> (8799) with his

fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) with his fathers

<01> in the city <05892> of David <01732> his father <01>: and

Jehoram <03088> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his

stead.

1Ki 22:51 Ahaziah <0274> the son <01121> of Ahab <0256> began

to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478> in Samaria <08111>

the seventeenth <07651> <06240> year <08141> of Jehoshaphat

<03092> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, and reigned <04427>

(8799) two years <08141> over Israel <03478>.

1Ki 22:52 And he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight

<05869> of the LORD <03068>, and walked <03212> (8799) in the

way <01870> of his father <01>, and in the way <01870> of his

mother <0517>, and in the way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379> the

son <01121> of Nebat <05028>, who made Israel <03478> to sin

<02398> (8689):

1Ki 22:53 For he served <05647> (8799) Baal <01168>, and

worshipped <07812> (8691) him, and provoked to anger <03707>

(8686) the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, according

to all that his father <01> had done <06213> (8804).
