¹ And it cometh to pass, in the four hundred and eightieth year of the going out of the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, in the fourth year -- in the month of Zif, it `is' the second month -- of the reigning of Solomon over Israel, that he buildeth the house for Jehovah.

⁴⁷ and Solomon built Him an house.

¹ And Solomon beginneth to build the house of Jehovah, in Jerusalem, in the mount of Moriah, where He appeared to David his father, in the place that David had prepared, in the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite,

² and he beginneth to build in the second `day', in the second month, in the fourth year of his reign.

⁵ and ye yourselves, as living stones, are built up, a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

¹⁰ for he was looking for the city having the foundations, whose artificer and constructor `is' God.

¹¹ And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation --

⁷ being rooted and built up in him, and confirmed in the faith, as ye were taught -- abounding in it in thanksgiving.

²⁰ being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being chief corner-`stone',

²¹ in whom all the building fitly framed together doth increase to an holy sanctuary in the Lord,

¹³ Yea, he doth build the temple of Jehovah, And he doth bear away honour, And he hath sat and ruled on His throne, And hath been a priest on His throne, And a counsel of peace is between both.

¹⁹ and to Solomon my son give a perfect heart, to keep Thy commands, Thy testimonies, and Thy statutes, and to do the whole, even to build the palace `for' which I have prepared.'

³⁷ In the fourth year hath the house of Jehovah been founded, in the month Zif,
