lo! I, am about to build a house for the Name of Yahweh my God, to hallow unto him - to burn before him sweet incense, and for a continual setting in array, and to offer ascending-sacrifices morning and evening, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the appointed feasts of Yahweh our God,-age-abiding, is this law for Israel.

And, the house which I am about to build, must be great, - for great is our God, above all gods.

yea to prepare me timbers in abundance, - for, the house which I am about to build, must be great and most wonderful.

And he made a molten sea, - ten - by the cubit, from the one brim thereof into the other brim thereof, it was round all about, and, five - by the cubit, was the height thereof, and, a line - of thirty by the cubit, did compass it round about.

And the king turned about his face, and blessed all the convocation of Israel, - while, all the convocation of Israel, was standing;

So it came to pass, when the chariot-captains saw Jehoshaphat, that, they, said, The king of Israel, it is. And they compassed him about, to fight, - but Jehoshaphat made outcry, and, Yahweh, helped him, yea God allured them away from him.

So the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was quiet, - for his God, gave him rest, round about.

So Jehoram passed over, with his captains, and all his chariot, with him,-and it came to pass that he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites that were round about unto him, and the chariot-captains.

also throughout the cities of Manasseh and Ephraim and Simeon, even as far as Naphtali, - searched he their houses, round about.
