1 Raja-raja 8:14-21
8:14 Then the king turned around
1 and pronounced a blessing over the whole Israelite assembly as they stood there.
2
8:15 He said, “The
Lord God of Israel is worthy of praise because he has fulfilled
3 what he promised
4 my father David.
8:16 He told David,
5 ‘Since the day I brought my people Israel out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city from all the tribes of Israel to build a temple in which to live.
6 But I have chosen David to lead my people Israel.’
8:17 Now my father David had a strong desire
7 to build a temple to honor the
Lord God of Israel.
8
8:18 The
Lord told my father David, ‘It is right for you to have a strong desire to build a temple to honor me.
9
8:19 But you will not build the temple; your very own son will build the temple for my honor.’
10
8:20 The
Lord has kept the promise he made.
11 I have taken my father David’s place and have occupied the throne of Israel, as the
Lord promised. I have built this temple for the honor
12 of the
Lord God of Israel
8:21 and set up in it a place for the ark containing the covenant the
Lord made with our ancestors
13 when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.”
