2 But I have built an house of habitation for thee, and a place for thy dwelling for ever.
2 but I have built an exalted temple for You,a place for Your residence forever.
2 Now I have constructed a magnificent temple dedicated to you that will serve as a place for you to inhabit forever."

4 and he said, Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who spake with his mouth, unto David my father,-and, with his hand, hath fulfilled, saying:
4 He said, “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who spoke with His mouth to my father David and has fulfilled it with His hands, saying,
4 And he said, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, who hath with his hands fulfilled that which he spake with his mouth to my father David, saying,
4 He said:May the Lord God of Israel be praised!He spoke directly to my father David,and He has fulfilled the promiseby His power.He said,
4 Then Solomon prayed: "Blessed is the LORD God of Israel, who made a commitment to my father David and then personally fulfilled what he had promised when he said:
5 From the day I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt, I made choice of no city, out of all the tribes of Israel, for building a house, where my Name might be, - neither made I choice of any man, to be chief ruler over my people Israel:
5 ‘Since the day that I brought My people from the land of Egypt, I did not choose a city out of all the tribes of Israel in which to build a house that My name might be there, nor did I choose any man for a leader over My people Israel;
5 Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel:
5 “Since the day I brought My people Israelout of the land of Egypt,(C)I have not chosen a city to build a temple inamong any of the tribes of Israel,so that My name would be there,and I have not chosen a manto be ruler over My people Israel.
5 "From the day I brought out my people from the land of Egypt I never chose a city from all the tribes of Israel to build a temple where my name might reside. And I never chose any man to become Commander-in-Chief over my people Israel.
6 nevertheless I have made choice of Jerusalem, that my Name might be there, - and I have made choice of David, that he might be over my people Israel.
6 but (B)I have chosen Jerusalem that My name might be there, and I (C)have chosen David to be over My people Israel.’
6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.
6 But I have chosen Jerusalemso that My name will be there,(D)and I have chosen Davidto be over My people Israel.”(E)
6 But I have chosen Jerusalem, where my name will reside. And I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.'
7 And so it came to pass, that it was near the heart of David my father, - to build a house, to the Name of Yahweh, God of Israel.
7 (D)Now it was (b)in the heart of my father David to build a house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
7 Now it was in the heart of David my father to build an house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
7 Now it was in the heart of my father Davidto build a temple for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.(F)
7 "My father David wanted to build a temple for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
8 Then said Yahweh unto David my father, Because it was near thy heart to build a house for my Name, thou didst well that it was near thy heart:
8 But the Lord said to my father David, ‘Because it was (c)in your heart to build a house for My name, you did well that it was (d)in your heart.
8 But the LORD said to David my father, Forasmuch as it was in thine heart to build an house for my name, thou didst well in that it was in thine heart:
8 However, Yahweh said to my father David,“Since it was your desire to build a temple for My name,you have done well to have this desire.
8 The LORD told my father David:
9 Only, thou thyself, must not build the house, - but, thine own son, that proceedeth out of thy loins - he, shall build the house for my Name.
9 Nevertheless you shall not build the house, but your son who (e)will be born to you, he shall build the house for My name.’
9 Notwithstanding thou shalt not build the house; but thy son which shall come forth out of thy loins, he shall build the house for my name.
9 Yet, you are not the one to build the temple,but your son, your own offspring,will build the temple for My name.”
9 "Therefore, since you determined to build a temple for my name, you acted well, because it was your choice to do so. Nevertheless, you are not to build the Temple, but your son who will be born to you is to build a temple for my name.'
10 So then Yahweh hath established his word, which he spake, - and I have been raised up instead of David my father, and have taken my seat upon the throne of Israel, as spake Yahweh, and have built the house to the Name of Yahweh, God of Israel;
10 Now the Lord has fulfilled His word which He spoke; for I have risen in the place of my father David and sit on the throne of Israel, as the Lord (f)promised, and have built the house for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
10 The LORD therefore hath performed his word that he hath spoken: for I am risen up in the room of David my father, and am set on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised, and have built the house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.
10 So Yahweh has fulfilled what He promised.I have taken the place of my father Davidand I sit on the throne of Israel, as Yahweh promised.I have built the temple for the name of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
10 "The LORD has brought to fulfillment what he promised, and now here I stand, having succeeded my father David to sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. I have built the Temple for the name of the Lord GOD of Israel.
11 and have put there, the ark, - wherein is the covenant of Yahweh, - which he solemnised with the sons of Israel.
11 There I have set the ark (E)in which is the covenant of the Lord, which He made with the sons of Israel.”
11 And in it have I put the ark, wherein is the covenant of the LORD, that he made with the children of Israel.
11 I have placed in it the ark in which the covenant that the LORD made with the Israelis is stored."
12 Then stood he before the altar of Yahweh, in the presence of all the convocation of Israel, - and spread forth his hands;
12 Then he stood before the altar of the Lord in the presence of all the assembly of Israel and spread out his hands.
12 And he stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands:
12 Then Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in front of the entire congregation of Israel and spread out his hands.
12 Then Solomon took his place in front of the LORD's altar in the presence of the entire congregation of Israel and spread out his hands.
13 for Solomon had made a platform of bronze, and had set it in the midst of the enclosure, five cubits, the length thereof, and, five cubits, the breadth thereof, and, three cubits, the height thereof,-and he stood thereon, and knelt upon his knees, in the presence of all the convocation of Israel, and spread forth his hands, heavenward;
13 (F)Now Solomon had made a bronze platform, five cubits long, five cubits wide and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court; and he stood on it, (G)knelt on his knees in the presence of all the assembly of Israel and spread out his hands toward heaven.
13 For Solomon had made a brasen scaffold, of five cubits long, and five cubits broad, and three cubits high, and had set it in the midst of the court: and upon it he stood, and kneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven,
13 For Solomon had made a bronze platform 7½ feet(a) long, 7½ feet(b) wide, and 4½ feet(c) high and put it in the court. He stood on it,(H) knelt down in front of the entire congregation of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven.(I)
13 Solomon had a bronze platform constructed five cubits square and three cubits high. He had it erected in the middle of the courtyard, and stood on it. Then he knelt down on his knees in front of the entire congregation of Israel, spread out his hands toward heaven,
14 and said, O Yahweh! God of Israel, Not like unto thee, is there a god, in the heavens, or throughout the earth, - who keepest Covenant and Lovingkindness for thy servants who are walking before thee with all their heart:
14 He said, “O Lord, the God of Israel, (H)there is no god like You in heaven or on earth, (I)keeping covenant and showing lovingkindness to Your servants who walk before You with all their heart;
14 And said, O LORD God of Israel, there is no God like thee in the heaven, nor in the earth; which keepest covenant, and shewest mercy unto thy servants, that walk before thee with all their hearts:
14 He said:Lord God of Israel,there is no God like Youin heaven or on earth,(J)keeping His gracious covenantwith Your servants who walk before Youwith their whole heart.(K)
14 and said:
15 who hast kept, for thy servant David my father, that which thou didst promise him, - in that thou didst promise with thy mouth, and, with thy hand, hast fulfilled, as it is this day.
15 (J)who has kept with Your servant David, my father, that which You have (g)promised him; indeed You have spoken with Your mouth and have fulfilled it with Your hand, as it is this day.
15 Thou which hast kept with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him; and spakest with thy mouth, and hast fulfilled it with thine hand, as it is this day.
15 You have kept what You promisedto Your servant, my father David.You spoke directly to him,and You fulfilled Your promise by Your power,as it is today.(L)
15 "LORD God of Israel, there is no one like you, God of heaven and earth, who watches over his covenant, showing gracious love to your servants who live their lives in your presence with all their hearts. It is you, LORD God, who has kept your promise to my father, your servant David, that you made to him. Indeed, you made a commitment to my father David and then personally fulfilled what you had promised today.
16 Now, therefore, O Yahweh - God of Israel, keep thou, for thy servant David my father, that which thou didst promise him, saying, There shall not be cut off to thee a man, from before me, to sit upon the throne of Israel, if only, thy sons take heed to their way, to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.
16 Now therefore, O Lord, the God of Israel, keep with Your servant David, my father, that which You have (h)promised him, saying, ‘(i)(K)You shall not lack a man to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your sons take heed to their way, to walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’
16 Now therefore, O LORD God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that which thou hast promised him, saying, There shall not fail thee a man in my sight to sit upon the throne of Israel; yet so that thy children take heed to their way to walk in my law, as thou hast walked before me.
16 Therefore, Lord God of Israel,keep what You promisedto Your servant, my father David:“You will never fail to have a manto sit before Me on the throne of Israel,(M)if only your sons guard their way to walk in My Lawas you have walked before Me.”
16 "Now therefore, LORD God of Israel, keep your promise that you made to my father, your servant David, when you said, "You are to not lack a man to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your descendants will watch their lives, to live according to my Law, just as you have lived in my presence.'
17 Now, therefore, O Yahweh, God of Israel,-verified be thy promise, which thou didst make unto thy servant David.
17 Now therefore, O Lord, the God of Israel, let Your word be confirmed which You have spoken to Your servant David.
17 Now then, O LORD God of Israel, let thy word be verified, which thou hast spoken unto thy servant David.
17 Now, Lord God of Israel, please confirmwhat You promised to Your servant David.
17 "Now therefore, LORD God of Israel, may your promise that you made to your servant David be fulfilled"
18 But, in very deed, will God dwell with man on the earth? Lo! the heavens, even the leaven of heavens, cannot contain thee, how much less this house which I have built!
18 “But (L)will God indeed dwell with mankind on the earth? Behold, (M)heaven and the (j)highest heaven cannot contain You; how much less this house which I have built.
18 But will God in very deed dwell with men on the earth? behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain thee; how much less this house which I have built!

38 (Z)if they return to You with all their heart and with all their soul in the land of their captivity, where they have been taken captive, and pray toward their land which You have given to their fathers and the city which You have chosen, and toward the house which I have built for Your name,

38 and when they return to You with their whole mind and heartin the land of their captivity where they were taken captive,and when they pray in the direction of their landthat You gave their ancestors,and the city You have chosen,and toward the temple I have built for Your name,
