2nd Chronicles Chapter 7 - King James Strong Number Version

1
Now when Solomon <H8010> had made an end <H3615> of praying, <H6419> the fire <H0784> came down <H3381> from heaven, <H8064> and consumed <H0398> the burnt offering <H5930> and the sacrifices; <H2077> and the glory <H3519> of the LORD <H3068> filled <H4390> the house. <H1004>
2
And the priests <H3548> could <H3201> not enter <H0935> into the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> because the glory <H3519> of the LORD <H3068> had filled <H4390> the LORD'S <H3068> house. <H1004>
3
And when all the children <H1121> of Israel <H3478> saw <H7200> how the fire <H0784> came down, <H3381> and the glory <H3519> of the LORD <H3068> upon the house, <H1004> they bowed <H3766> themselves with their faces <H0639> to the ground <H0776> upon the pavement, <H7531> and worshipped, <H7812> and praised <H3034> the LORD, <H3068> [saying], For [he is] good; <H2896> for his mercy <H2617> [endureth] for ever. <H5769>
4
Then the king <H4428> and all the people <H5971> offered <H2076> sacrifices <H2077> before <H6440> the LORD. <H3068>
5
And king <H4428> Solomon <H8010> offered <H2076> a sacrifice <H2077> of twenty <H6242> and two <H8147> thousand <H0505> oxen, <H1241> and an hundred <H3967> and twenty <H6242> thousand <H0505> sheep: <H6629> so the king <H4428> and all the people <H5971> dedicated <H2596> the house <H1004> of God. <H0430>
6
And the priests <H3548> waited <H5975> on their offices: <H4931> the Levites <H3881> also with instruments <H3627> of musick <H7892> of the LORD, <H3068> which David <H1732> the king <H4428> had made <H6213> to praise <H3034> the LORD, <H3068> because his mercy <H2617> [endureth] for ever, <H5769> when David <H1732> praised <H1984> by their ministry; <H3027> and the priests <H3548> sounded <H2690> trumpets before them, and all Israel <H3478> stood. <H5975>
7
Moreover Solomon <H8010> hallowed <H6942> the middle <H8432> of the court <H2691> that [was] before <H6440> the house <H1004> of the LORD: <H3068> for there he offered <H6213> burnt offerings, <H5930> and the fat <H2459> of the peace offerings, <H8002> because the brasen <H5178> altar <H4196> which Solomon <H8010> had made <H6213> was not able <H3201> to receive <H3557> the burnt offerings, <H5930> and the meat offerings, <H4503> and the fat. <H2459>
8
Also at the same time <H6256> Solomon <H8010> kept <H6213> the feast <H2282> seven <H7651> days, <H3117> and all Israel <H3478> with him, a very <H3966> great <H1419> congregation, <H6951> from the entering in <H0935> of Hamath <H2574> unto the river <H5158> of Egypt. <H4714>
9
And in the eighth <H8066> day <H3117> they made <H6213> a solemn assembly: <H6116> for they kept <H6213> the dedication <H2598> of the altar <H4196> seven <H7651> days, <H3117> and the feast <H2282> seven <H7651> days. <H3117>
10
And on the three <H7969> and twentieth <H6242> day <H3117> of the seventh <H7637> month <H2320> he sent the people <H5971> away <H7971> into their tents, <H0168> glad <H8056> and merry <H2896> in heart <H3820> for the goodness <H2896> that the LORD <H3068> had shewed <H6213> unto David, <H1732> and to Solomon, <H8010> and to Israel <H3478> his people. <H5971>
11
Thus Solomon <H8010> finished <H3615> the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> and the king's <H4428> house: <H1004> and all that came <H0935> into Solomon's <H8010> heart <H3820> to make <H6213> in the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> and in his own house, <H1004> he prosperously effected. <H6743>
12
And the LORD <H3068> appeared <H7200> to Solomon <H8010> by night, <H3915> and said <H0559> unto him, I have heard <H8085> thy prayer, <H8605> and have chosen <H0977> this place <H4725> to myself for an house <H1004> of sacrifice. <H2077>
13
If <H2005> I shut up <H6113> heaven <H8064> that there be no rain, <H4306> or if I command <H6680> the locusts <H2284> to devour <H0398> the land, <H0776> or if <H2005> I send <H7971> pestilence <H1698> among my people; <H5971>
14
If my people, <H5971> which are called <H7121> by my name, <H8034> shall humble <H3665> themselves, and pray, <H6419> and seek <H1245> my face, <H6440> and turn <H7725> from their wicked <H7451> ways; <H1870> then will I hear <H8085> from heaven, <H8064> and will forgive <H5545> their sin, <H2403> and will heal <H7495> their land. <H0776>
15
Now mine eyes <H5869> shall be open, <H6605> and mine ears <H0241> attent <H7183> unto the prayer <H8605> [that is made] in this place. <H4725>
16
For now have I chosen <H0977> and sanctified <H6942> this house, <H1004> that my name <H8034> may be there for <H5704> ever: <H5769> and mine eyes <H5869> and mine heart <H3820> shall be there perpetually. <H3605> <H3117>
17
And as for thee, if thou wilt walk <H3212> before <H6440> me, as David <H1732> thy father <H0001> walked, <H1980> and do <H6213> according to all that I have commanded <H6680> thee, and shalt observe <H8104> my statutes <H2706> and my judgments; <H4941>
18
Then will I stablish <H6965> the throne <H3678> of thy kingdom, <H4438> according as I have covenanted <H3772> with David <H1732> thy father, <H0001> saying, <H0559> There shall not fail <H3772> thee a man <H0376> [to be] ruler <H4910> in Israel. <H3478>
19
But if ye turn away, <H7725> and forsake <H5800> my statutes <H2708> and my commandments, <H4687> which I have set <H5414> before <H6440> you, and shall go <H1980> and serve <H5647> other <H0312> gods, <H0430> and worship <H7812> them;
20
Then will I pluck them up by the roots <H5428> out of my land <H0127> which I have given <H5414> them; and this house, <H1004> which I have sanctified <H6942> for my name, <H8034> will I cast out <H7993> of my sight, <H6440> and will make <H5414> it [to be] a proverb <H4912> and a byword <H8148> among all nations. <H5971>
21
And this house, <H1004> which is high, <H5945> shall be an astonishment <H8074> to every one that passeth <H5674> by it; so that he shall say, <H0559> Why hath the LORD <H3068> done <H6213> thus unto this land, <H0776> and unto this house? <H1004>
22
And it shall be answered, <H0559> Because they forsook <H5800> the LORD <H3068> God <H0430> of their fathers, <H0001> which brought them forth <H3318> out of the land <H0776> of Egypt, <H4714> and laid hold <H2388> on other <H0312> gods, <H0430> and worshipped <H7812> them, and served <H5647> them: therefore hath he brought <H0935> all this evil <H7451> upon them.
