1 Kings 9
|
- 9:1 And it came to pass, when
Solomon had
finished the
building of the
house of the
LORD, and the
king's
house, and all
Solomon's
desire which he was
pleased to
do,
|
- 9:2 That the
LORD
appeared to
Solomon the second
time, as he had
appeared unto him at
Gibeon.
|
- 9:3 And the
LORD
said unto him, I have
heard thy
prayer and thy
supplication, that thou hast
made
before me: I have
hallowed this
house, which thou hast
built, to
put my
name there
for
ever; and mine
eyes and mine
heart shall be there
perpetually.
|
- 9:4 And if thou wilt
walk
before me, as
David thy
father
walked, in
integrity of
heart, and in
uprightness, to
do according to all that I have
commanded thee, and wilt
keep my
statutes and my
judgments:
|
- 9:5 Then I will
establish the
throne of thy
kingdom upon
Israel for
ever, as I
promised to
David thy
father,
saying, There shall not
fail thee a
man upon the
throne of
Israel.
|
- 9:6 But if ye shall at
all
turn from
following me, ye or your
children, and will not
keep my
commandments and my
statutes which I have
set
before you, but
go and
serve
other
gods, and
worship them:
|
- 9:7 Then will I cut
off
Israel
out of the
land which I have
given them; and this
house, which I have
hallowed for my
name, will I cast
out of my
sight; and
Israel shall be a
proverb and a
byword among all
people:
|
- 9:8 And at this
house, which is
high, every one that
passeth by it shall be
astonished, and shall
hiss; and they shall
say, Why hath the
LORD
done thus unto this
land, and to this
house?
|
- 9:9 And they shall
answer, Because they
forsook the
LORD their
God, who brought
forth their
fathers out of the
land of
Egypt, and have taken
hold upon
other
gods, and have
worshipped them, and
served them: therefore hath the
LORD
brought upon them all this
evil.

children that were
left
after them in the
land, whom the
children of

able utterly to
destroy, upon those did

levy a
tribute of
bondservice unto this
day.
