So was completed all the work which King Solomon made for the house of Yahweh, and Solomon brought in the hallowed things of David his father - the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, did he put in the treasuries of the house of Yahweh.
And God gave wisdom unto Solomon, and discernment, and very great largeness of heart, - like the sand that is on the shore of the sea:
but, now, Yahweh my God hath given me rest on every side, - there is neither adversary nor incident of evil. Behold me! then, purposing to build a house for the Name of Yahweh my God - even as Yahweh spake unto David my father, saying - Thy son, whom I will set in thy stead, upon thy throne, he, shall build the house for my Name.
Then Solomon gave word to build a house for the Name of Yahweh, and a house for his kingdom. And Solomon numbered seventy thousand men to bear burdens, and eighty thousand men to hew in the mountain, - and, to oversee them, three thousand six hundred. And Solomon sent unto Huram king of Tyre, saying, - As thou didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him a house to dwell in, read more.
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. But who is able to build unto him a house? for, the heavens, even the heaven of heavens, cannot contain him, - who then am, I, that I should build unto him a house, though only to burn incense before him?

I have, built, a house as a high abode for thee, - A settled place for thee to abide in, for ages.
