13 And he carried out [03318] thence all the treasures [0214] of the house [01004] of the LORD [03068], and the treasures [0214] of the king's [04428] house [01004], and cut in pieces [07112] all the vessels [03627] of gold [02091] which Solomon [08010] king [04428] of Israel [03478] had made [06213] in the temple [01964] of the LORD [03068], as the LORD [03068] had said [01696].
1 Then Solomon [08010] assembled [06950] the elders [02205] of Israel [03478], and all the heads [07218] of the tribes [04294], the chief [05387] of the fathers [01] of the children [01121] of Israel [03478], unto king [04428] Solomon [08010] in Jerusalem [03389], that they might bring up [05927] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] out of the city [05892] of David [01732], which is Zion [06726].
2 And all the men [0376] of Israel [03478] assembled [06950] themselves unto king [04428] Solomon [08010] at the feast [02282] in the month [03391] Ethanim [0388], which is the seventh [07637] month [02320].
3 And all the elders [02205] of Israel [03478] came [0935], and the priests [03548] took up [05375] the ark [0727].
4 And they brought up [05927] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], and the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150], and all the holy [06944] vessels [03627] that were in the tabernacle [0168], even those did the priests [03548] and the Levites [03881] bring up [05927].
5 And king [04428] Solomon [08010], and all the congregation [05712] of Israel [03478], that were assembled [03259] unto him, were with him before [06440] the ark [0727], sacrificing [02076] sheep [06629] and oxen [01241], that could not be told [05608] nor numbered [04487] for multitude [07230].
6 And the priests [03548] brought in [0935] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] unto his place [04725], into the oracle [01687] of the house [01004], to the most [06944] holy [06944] place, even under the wings [03671] of the cherubims [03742].
7 For the cherubims [03742] spread forth [06566] their two wings [03671] over the place [04725] of the ark [0727], and the cherubims [03742] covered [05526] the ark [0727] and the staves [0905] thereof above [04605].
8 And they drew out [0748] the staves [0905], that the ends [07218] of the staves [0905] were seen out [07200] in the holy [06944] place before [06440] the oracle [01687], and they were not seen [07200] without [02351]: and there they are unto this day [03117].
9 There was nothing in the ark [0727] save [07535] the two [08147] tables [03871] of stone [068], which Moses [04872] put [03240] there at Horeb [02722], when the LORD [03068] made [03772] a covenant with the children [01121] of Israel [03478], when they came out [03318] of the land [0776] of Egypt [04714].
10 And it came to pass, when the priests [03548] were come out [03318] of the holy [06944] place, that the cloud [06051] filled [04390] the house [01004] of the LORD [03068],
11 So that the priests [03548] could [03201] not stand [05975] to minister [08334] because [06440] of the cloud [06051]: for the glory [03519] of the LORD [03068] had filled [04390] the house [01004] of the LORD [03068].
12 Then spake [0559] Solomon [08010], The LORD [03068] said [0559] that he would dwell [07931] in the thick darkness [06205].
13 I have surely [01129] built [01129] thee an house [01004] to dwell in [02073], a settled place [04349] for thee to abide in [03427] for ever [05769].
14 And the king [04428] turned [05437] his face [06440] about [05437], and blessed [01288] all the congregation [06951] of Israel [03478]: (and all the congregation [06951] of Israel [03478] stood [05975]
15 And he said [0559], Blessed [01288] be the LORD [03068] God [0430] of Israel [03478], which spake [01696] with his mouth [06310] unto David [01732] my father [01], and hath with his hand [03027] fulfilled [04390] it, saying [0559],
16 Since the day [03117] that I brought forth [03318] my people [05971] Israel [03478] out of Egypt [04714], I chose [0977] no city [05892] out of all the tribes [07626] of Israel [03478] to build [01129] an house [01004], that my name [08034] might be therein; but I chose [0977] David [01732] to be over my people [05971] Israel [03478].
17 And it was in the heart [03824] of David [01732] my father [01] to build [01129] an house [01004] for the name [08034] of the LORD [03068] God [0430] of Israel [03478].
18 And the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto David [01732] my father [01], Whereas [03282] [0834] it was in thine heart [03824] to build [01129] an house [01004] unto my name [08034], thou didst well [02895] that it was in thine heart [03824].
19 Nevertheless [07535] thou shalt not build [01129] the house [01004]; but thy son [01121] that shall come forth out [03318] of thy loins [02504], he shall build [01129] the house [01004] unto my name [08034].
20 And the LORD [03068] hath performed [06965] his word [01697] that he spake [01696], and I am risen up [06965] in the room of David [01732] my father [01], and sit [03427] on the throne [03678] of Israel [03478], as the LORD [03068] promised [01696], and have built [01129] an house [01004] for the name [08034] of the LORD [03068] God [0430] of Israel [03478].
21 And I have set [07760] there a place [04725] for the ark [0727], wherein is the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068], which he made [03772] with our fathers [01], when he brought them out [03318] of the land [0776] of Egypt [04714].
24 And lo Zadok [06659] also, and all the Levites [03881] were with him, bearing [05375] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of God [0430]: and they set down [03332] the ark [0727] of God [0430]; and Abiathar [054] went up [05927], until all the people [05971] had done [08552] passing [05674] out of the city [05892].
25 And the king [04428] said [0559] unto Zadok [06659], Carry back [07725] the ark [0727] of God [0430] into the city [05892]: if I shall find [04672] favour [02580] in the eyes [05869] of the LORD [03068], he will bring me again [07725], and shew [07200] me both it, and his habitation [05116]:
26 But if he thus say [0559], I have no delight [02654] in thee; behold, here am I, let him do [06213] to me as seemeth [05869] good [02896] unto him.
27 The king [04428] said [0559] also unto Zadok [06659] the priest [03548], Art not thou a seer [07200]? return [07725] into the city [05892] in peace [07965], and your two [08147] sons [01121] with you, Ahimaaz [0290] thy son [01121], and Jonathan [03083] the son [01121] of Abiathar [054].
28 See [07200], I will tarry [04102] in the plain [06160] [05679] of the wilderness [04057], until there come [0935] word [01697] from you to certify [05046] me.
29 Zadok [06659] therefore and Abiathar [054] carried [07725] the ark [0727] of God [0430] again [07725] to Jerusalem [03389]: and they tarried [03427] there.
2 That the king [04428] said [0559] unto Nathan [05416] the prophet [05030], See [07200] now, I dwell [03427] in an house [01004] of cedar [0730], but the ark [0727] of God [0430] dwelleth [03427] within [08432] curtains [03407].
2 And David [01732] arose [06965], and went [03212] with all the people [05971] that were with him from Baale of Judah [01184], to bring up [05927] from thence the ark [0727] of God [0430], whose name [08034] is called [07121] by the name [08034] of the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635] that dwelleth [03427] between the cherubims [03742].
3 And they set [07392] the ark [0727] of God [0430] upon a new [02319] cart [05699], and brought [05375] it out of the house [01004] of Abinadab [041] that was in Gibeah [01390]: and Uzzah [05798] and Ahio [0283], the sons [01121] of Abinadab [041], drave [05090] the new [02319] cart [05699].
4 And they brought [05375] it out of the house [01004] of Abinadab [041] which was at Gibeah [01390], accompanying [05973] the ark [0727] of God [0430]: and Ahio [0283] went [01980] before [06440] the ark [0727].
5 And David [01732] and all the house [01004] of Israel [03478] played [07832] before [06440] the LORD [03068] on all manner of instruments made of fir [01265] wood [06086], even on harps [03658], and on psalteries [05035], and on timbrels [08596], and on cornets [04517], and on cymbals [06767].
6 And when they came [0935] to Nachon's [05225] threshingfloor [01637], Uzzah [05798] put forth [07971] his hand to the ark [0727] of God [0430], and took hold [0270] of it; for the oxen [01241] shook [08058] it.
7 And the anger [0639] of the LORD [03068] was kindled [02734] against Uzzah [05798]; and God [0430] smote [05221] him there for his error [07944]; and there he died [04191] by the ark [0727] of God [0430].
8 And David [01732] was displeased [02734], because the LORD [03068] had made [06555] a breach [06556] upon Uzzah [05798]: and he called [07121] the name of the place [04725] Perezuzzah [06560] to this day [03117].
9 And David [01732] was afraid [03372] of the LORD [03068] that day [03117], and said [0559], How shall the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] come [0935] to me?
10 So David [01732] would [014] not remove [05493] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] unto him into the city [05892] of David [01732]: but David [01732] carried it aside [05186] into the house [01004] of Obededom [05654] the Gittite [01663].
11 And the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] continued [03427] in the house [01004] of Obededom [05654] the Gittite [01663] three [07969] months [02320]: and the LORD [03068] blessed [01288] Obededom [05654], and all his household [01004].
12 And it was told [05046] king [04428] David [01732], saying [0559], The LORD [03068] hath blessed [01288] the house [01004] of Obededom [05654], and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark [0727] of God [0430]. So David [01732] went [03212] and brought up [05927] the ark [0727] of God [0430] from the house [01004] of Obededom [05654] into the city [05892] of David [01732] with gladness [08057].
13 And it was so, that when they that bare [05375] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] had gone [06805] six [08337] paces [06806], he sacrificed [02076] oxen [07794] and fatlings [04806].
14 And David [01732] danced [03769] before [06440] the LORD [03068] with all his might [05797]; and David [01732] was girded [02296] with a linen [0906] ephod [0646].
15 So David [01732] and all the house [01004] of Israel [03478] brought up [05927] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] with shouting [08643], and with the sound [06963] of the trumpet [07782].
16 And as the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] came [0935] into the city [05892] of David [01732], Michal [04324] Saul's [07586] daughter [01323] looked [08259] through a window [02474], and saw [07200] king [04428] David [01732] leaping [06339] and dancing [03769] before [06440] the LORD [03068]; and she despised [0959] him in her heart [03820].
17 And they brought [0935] in the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], and set [03322] it in his place [04725], in the midst [08432] of the tabernacle [0168] that David [01732] had pitched [05186] for it: and David [01732] offered [05927] burnt offerings [05930] and peace offerings [08002] before [06440] the LORD [03068].
2 And it came to pass, while [03117] the ark [0727] abode [03427] in Kirjathjearim [07157], that the time [03117] was long [07235]; for it was twenty [06242] years [08141]: and all the house [01004] of Israel [03478] lamented [05091] after [0310] the LORD [03068].
1 And the men [0582] of Kirjathjearim [07157] came [0935], and fetched up [05927] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], and brought [0935] it into the house [01004] of Abinadab [041] in the hill [01389], and sanctified [06942] Eleazar [0499] his son [01121] to keep [08104] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068].
1 And the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] was in the country [07704] of the Philistines [06430] seven [07651] months [02320].
2 And the Philistines [06430] called [07121] for the priests [03548] and the diviners [07080], saying [0559], What shall we do [06213] to the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068]? tell [03045] us wherewith we shall send [07971] it to his place [04725].
3 And they said [0559], If ye send away [07971] the ark [0727] of the God [0430] of Israel [03478], send [07971] it not empty [07387]; but in any wise [07725] return [07725] him a trespass offering [0817]: then ye shall be healed [07495], and it shall be known [03045] to you why his hand [03027] is not removed [05493] from you.
4 Then said [0559] they, What shall be the trespass offering [0817] which we shall return [07725] to him? They answered [0559], Five [02568] golden [02091] emerods [02914] [06076], and five [02568] golden [02091] mice [05909], according to the number [04557] of the lords [05633] of the Philistines [06430]: for one [0259] plague [04046] was on you all, and on your lords [05633].
5 Wherefore ye shall make [06213] images [06754] of your emerods [02914] [06076], and images [06754] of your mice [05909] that mar [07843] the land [0776]; and ye shall give [05414] glory [03519] unto the God [0430] of Israel [03478]: peradventure he will lighten [07043] his hand [03027] from off you, and from off your gods [0430], and from off your land [0776].
6 Wherefore then do ye harden [03513] your hearts [03824], as the Egyptians [04714] and Pharaoh [06547] hardened [03513] their hearts [03820]? when he had wrought wonderfully [05953] among them, did they not let the people go [07971], and they departed [03212]?
7 Now therefore make [06213] a [0259] new [02319] cart [05699], and take [03947] two [08147] milch [05763] kine [06510], on which there hath come [05927] no yoke [05923], and tie [0631] the kine [06510] to the cart [05699], and bring [07725] their calves [01121] home [01004] from them [0310]:
8 And take [03947] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], and lay [05414] it upon the cart [05699]; and put [07760] the jewels [03627] of gold [02091], which ye return [07725] him for a trespass offering [0817], in a coffer [0712] by the side [06654] thereof; and send it away [07971], that it may go [01980].
9 And see [07200], if it goeth up [05927] by the way [01870] of his own coast [01366] to Bethshemesh [01053], then he hath done [06213] us this great [01419] evil [07451]: but if not, then we shall know [03045] that it is not his hand [03027] that smote [05060] us: it was a chance [04745] that happened to us [01961].
10 And the men [0582] did so [06213]; and took [03947] two [08147] milch [05763] kine [06510], and tied [0631] them to the cart [05699], and shut up [03607] their calves [01121] at home [01004]:
11 And they laid [07760] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] upon the cart [05699], and the coffer [0712] with the mice [05909] of gold [02091] and the images [06754] of their emerods [02914].
12 And the kine [06510] took the straight [03474] way [01870] to the way [01870] of Bethshemesh [01053], and went along [01980] the highway [04546] [0259], lowing [01600] as they went [01980], and turned not aside [05493] to the right hand [03225] or to the left [08040]; and the lords [05633] of the Philistines [06430] went [01980] after [0310] them unto the border [01366] of Bethshemesh [01053].
13 And they of Bethshemesh [01053] were reaping [07114] their wheat [02406] harvest [07105] in the valley [06010]: and they lifted up [05375] their eyes [05869], and saw [07200] the ark [0727], and rejoiced [08055] to see [07200] it.
14 And the cart [05699] came [0935] into the field [07704] of Joshua [03091], a Bethshemite [01030], and stood [05975] there, where there was a great [01419] stone [068]: and they clave [01234] the wood [06086] of the cart [05699], and offered [05927] the kine [06510] a burnt offering [05930] unto the LORD [03068].
15 And the Levites [03881] took down [03381] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], and the coffer [0712] that was with it, wherein the jewels [03627] of gold [02091] were, and put [07760] them on the great [01419] stone [068]: and the men [0582] of Bethshemesh [01053] offered [05927] burnt offerings [05930] and sacrificed [02076] sacrifices [02077] the same day [03117] unto the LORD [03068].
16 And when the five [02568] lords [05633] of the Philistines [06430] had seen [07200] it, they returned [07725] to Ekron [06138] the same day [03117].
17 And these are the golden [02091] emerods [02914] which the Philistines [06430] returned [07725] for a trespass offering [0817] unto the LORD [03068]; for Ashdod [0795] one [0259], for Gaza [05804] one [0259], for Askelon [0831] one [0259], for Gath [01661] one [0259], for Ekron [06138] one [0259];
18 And the golden [02091] mice [05909], according to the number [04557] of all the cities [05892] of the Philistines [06430] belonging to the five [02568] lords [05633], both of fenced [04013] cities [05892], and of country [06521] villages [03724], even unto the great [01419] stone of Abel [059], whereon they set down [03240] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068]: which stone remaineth unto this day [03117] in the field [07704] of Joshua [03091], the Bethshemite [01030].
19 And he smote [05221] the men [0376] of Bethshemesh [01053], because they had looked [07200] into the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], even he smote [05221] of the people [05971] fifty [02572] thousand [0505] and threescore and ten [07657] men [0582]: and the people [05971] lamented [056], because the LORD [03068] had smitten [05221] many of the people [05971] with a great [01419] slaughter [04347].
20 And the men [0582] of Bethshemesh [01053] said [0559], Who is able [03201] to stand [05975] before [06440] this holy [06918] LORD [03068] God [0430]? and to whom shall he go up [05927] from us?
21 And they sent [07971] messengers [04397] to the inhabitants [03427] of Kirjathjearim [07157], saying [0559], The Philistines [06430] have brought again [07725] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068]; come ye down [03381], and fetch it up [05927] to you.
1 And the Philistines [06430] took [03947] the ark [0727] of God [0430], and brought [0935] it from Ebenezer [072] unto Ashdod [0795].
2 When the Philistines [06430] took [03947] the ark [0727] of God [0430], they brought [0935] it into the house [01004] of Dagon [01712], and set [03322] it by [0681] Dagon [01712].
3 And when they of Ashdod [0796] arose early [07925] on the morrow [04283], behold, Dagon [01712] was fallen [05307] upon his face [06440] to the earth [0776] before [06440] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068]. And they took [03947] Dagon [01712], and set [07725] him in his place [04725] again [07725].
4 And when they arose early [07925] on the morrow [04283] morning [01242], behold, Dagon [01712] was fallen [05307] upon his face [06440] to the ground [0776] before [06440] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068]; and the head [07218] of Dagon [01712] and both [08147] the palms [03709] of his hands [03027] were cut off [03772] upon the threshold [04670]; only the stump of Dagon [01712] was left [07604] to him.
5 Therefore neither the priests [03548] of Dagon [01712], nor any that come [0935] into Dagon's [01712] house [01004], tread [01869] on the threshold [04670] of Dagon [01712] in Ashdod [0795] unto this day [03117].
6 But the hand [03027] of the LORD [03068] was heavy [03513] upon them of Ashdod [0796], and he destroyed [08074] them, and smote [05221] them with emerods [02914] [06076], even Ashdod [0795] and the coasts [01366] thereof.
7 And when the men [0582] of Ashdod [0795] saw [07200] that it was so, they said [0559], The ark [0727] of the God [0430] of Israel [03478] shall not abide [03427] with us: for his hand [03027] is sore [07185] upon us, and upon Dagon [01712] our god [0430].
8 They sent [07971] therefore and gathered [0622] all the lords [05633] of the Philistines [06430] unto them, and said [0559], What shall we do [06213] with the ark [0727] of the God [0430] of Israel [03478]? And they answered [0559], Let the ark [0727] of the God [0430] of Israel [03478] be carried about [05437] unto Gath [01661]. And they carried [05437] the ark [0727] of the God [0430] of Israel [03478] about [05437] thither.
9 And it was so, that, after [0310] they had carried it about [05437], the hand [03027] of the LORD [03068] was against the city [05892] with a very [03966] great [01419] destruction [04103]: and he smote [05221] the men [0582] of the city [05892], both small [06996] and great [01419], and they had emerods [02914] [06076] in their secret parts [08368].
10 Therefore they sent [07971] the ark [0727] of God [0430] to Ekron [06138]. And it came to pass, as the ark [0727] of God [0430] came [0935] to Ekron [06138], that the Ekronites [06139] cried out [02199], saying [0559], They have brought about [05437] the ark [0727] of the God [0430] of Israel [03478] to us, to slay [04191] us and our people [05971].
1 And the word [01697] of Samuel [08050] came to all Israel [03478]. Now Israel [03478] went out [03318] against [07125] the Philistines [06430] to battle [04421], and pitched [02583] beside Ebenezer [072]: and the Philistines [06430] pitched [02583] in Aphek [0663].
2 And the Philistines [06430] put themselves in array [06186] against [07125] Israel [03478]: and when they joined [05203] battle [04421], Israel [03478] was smitten [05062] before [06440] the Philistines [06430]: and they slew [05221] of the army [04634] in the field [07704] about four [0702] thousand [0505] men [0376].
3 And when the people [05971] were come [0935] into the camp [04264], the elders [02205] of Israel [03478] said [0559], Wherefore hath the LORD [03068] smitten [05062] us to day [03117] before [06440] the Philistines [06430]? Let us fetch [03947] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] out of Shiloh [07887] unto us, that, when it cometh [0935] among [07130] us, it may save [03467] us out of the hand [03709] of our enemies [0341].
4 So the people [05971] sent [07971] to Shiloh [07887], that they might bring [05375] from thence the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635], which dwelleth [03427] between the cherubims [03742]: and the two [08147] sons [01121] of Eli [05941], Hophni [02652] and Phinehas [06372], were there with the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of God [0430].
5 And when the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] came [0935] into the camp [04264], all Israel [03478] shouted [07321] with a great [01419] shout [08643], so that the earth [0776] rang again [01949].
6 And when the Philistines [06430] heard [08085] the noise [06963] of the shout [08643], they said [0559], What meaneth the noise [06963] of this great [01419] shout [08643] in the camp [04264] of the Hebrews [05680]? And they understood [03045] that the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] was come [0935] into the camp [04264].
7 And the Philistines [06430] were afraid [03372], for they said [0559], God [0430] is come [0935] into the camp [04264]. And they said [0559], Woe [0188] unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore [0865] [08032].
8 Woe [0188] unto us! who shall deliver [05337] us out of the hand [03027] of these mighty [0117] Gods [0430]? these are the Gods [0430] that smote [05221] the Egyptians [04714] with all the plagues [04347] in the wilderness [04057].
9 Be strong [02388], and quit [01961] yourselves like men [0582], O ye Philistines [06430], that ye be not servants [05647] unto the Hebrews [05680], as they have been [05647] to you: quit [01961] yourselves like men [0582], and fight [03898].
10 And the Philistines [06430] fought [03898], and Israel [03478] was smitten [05062], and they fled [05127] every man [0376] into his tent [0168]: and there was a very [03966] great [01419] slaughter [04347]; for there fell [05307] of Israel [03478] thirty [07970] thousand [0505] footmen [07273].
11 And the ark [0727] of God [0430] was taken [03947]; and the two [08147] sons [01121] of Eli [05941], Hophni [02652] and Phinehas [06372], were slain [04191].
3 And ere the lamp [05216] of God [0430] went out [03518] in the temple [01964] of the LORD [03068], where the ark [0727] of God [0430] was, and Samuel [08050] was laid down [07901] to sleep;
27 And the children [01121] of Israel [03478] enquired [07592] of the LORD [03068], (for the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of God [0430] was there in those days [03117],
11 So the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068] compassed [05437] the city [05892], going about [05362] it once [06471] [0259]: and they came [0935] into the camp [04264], and lodged [03885] in the camp [04264].
3 And they commanded [06680] the people [05971], saying [0559], When ye see [07200] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] your God [0430], and the priests [03548] the Levites [03881] bearing [05375] it, then ye shall remove [05265] from your place [04725], and go [01980] after [0310] it.
4 Yet there shall be a space [07350] between you and it, about two thousand [0505] cubits [0520] by measure [04060]: come not near [07126] unto it, that ye may know [03045] the way [01870] by which ye must go [03212]: for ye have not passed [05674] this way [01870] heretofore [08543] [08032].
5 And Joshua [03091] said [0559] unto the people [05971], Sanctify [06942] yourselves: for to morrow [04279] the LORD [03068] will do [06213] wonders [06381] among [07130] you.
6 And Joshua [03091] spake [0559] unto the priests [03548], saying [0559], Take up [05375] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285], and pass over [05674] before [06440] the people [05971]. And they took up [05375] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285], and went [03212] before [06440] the people [05971].
7 And the LORD [03068] said [0559] unto Joshua [03091], This day [03117] will I begin [02490] to magnify [01431] thee in the sight [05869] of all Israel [03478], that they may know [03045] that, as I was with Moses [04872], so I will be with thee.
8 And thou shalt command [06680] the priests [03548] that bear [05375] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285], saying [0559], When ye are come [0935] to the brink [07097] of the water [04325] of Jordan [03383], ye shall stand still [05975] in Jordan [03383].
9 And Joshua [03091] said [0559] unto the children [01121] of Israel [03478], Come hither [05066], and hear [08085] the words [01697] of the LORD [03068] your God [0430].
10 And Joshua [03091] said [0559], Hereby ye shall know [03045] that the living [02416] God [0410] is among [07130] you, and that he will without fail [03423] drive out [03423] from before [06440] you the Canaanites [03669], and the Hittites [02850], and the Hivites [02340], and the Perizzites [06522], and the Girgashites [01622], and the Amorites [0567], and the Jebusites [02983].
11 Behold, the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the Lord [0113] of all the earth [0776] passeth over [05674] before [06440] you into Jordan [03383].
12 Now therefore take [03947] you twelve [08147] [06240] men [0376] out of the tribes [07626] of Israel [03478], out of every [0259] tribe [07626] a man [0376].
13 And it shall come to pass, as soon as the soles [03709] of the feet [07272] of the priests [03548] that bear [05375] the ark [0727] of the LORD [03068], the Lord [0113] of all the earth [0776], shall rest [05117] in the waters [04325] of Jordan [03383], that the waters [04325] of Jordan [03383] shall be cut off [03772] from the waters [04325] that come down [03381] from above [04605]; and they shall stand [05975] upon an [0259] heap [05067].
14 And it came to pass, when the people [05971] removed [05265] from their tents [0168], to pass over [05674] Jordan [03383], and the priests [03548] bearing [05375] the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] before [06440] the people [05971];
15 And as they that bare [05375] the ark [0727] were come [0935] unto Jordan [03383], and the feet [07272] of the priests [03548] that bare [05375] the ark [0727] were dipped [02881] in the brim [07097] of the water [04325], (for Jordan [03383] overfloweth [04390] all his banks [01415] all the time [03117] of harvest [07105],)
33 And they departed [05265] from the mount [02022] of the LORD [03068] three [07969] days [03117]' journey [01870]: and the ark [0727] of the covenant [01285] of the LORD [03068] went [05265] before [06440] them in the three [07969] days [03117]' journey [01870], to search out [08446] a resting place [04496] for them.
31 And their charge [04931] shall be the ark [0727], and the table [07979], and the candlestick [04501], and the altars [04196], and the vessels [03627] of the sanctuary [06944] wherewith they minister [08334], and the hanging [04539], and all the service [05656] thereof.
15 And when Aaron [0175] and his sons [01121] have made an end [03615] of covering [03680] the sanctuary [06944], and all the vessels [03627] of the sanctuary [06944], as the camp [04264] is to set forward [05265]; after [0310] that, the sons [01121] of Kohath [06955] shall come [0935] to bear [05375] it: but they shall not touch [05060] any holy thing [06944], lest they die [04191]. These things are the burden [04853] of the sons [01121] of Kohath [06955] in the tabernacle [0168] of the congregation [04150].
1 And Bezaleel [01212] made [06213] the ark [0727] of shittim [07848] wood [06086]: two cubits [0520] and a half [02677] was the length [0753] of it, and a cubit [0520] and a half [02677] the breadth [07341] of it, and a cubit [0520] and a half [02677] the height [06967] of it:
2 And he overlaid [06823] it with pure [02889] gold [02091] within [01004] and without [02351], and made [06213] a crown [02213] of gold [02091] to it round about [05439].
3 And he cast [03332] for it four [0702] rings [02885] of gold [02091], to be set by the four [0702] corners [06471] of it; even two [08147] rings [02885] upon the one [0259] side [06763] of it, and two [08147] rings [02885] upon the other [08145] side [06763] of it.
4 And he made [06213] staves [0905] of shittim [07848] wood [06086], and overlaid [06823] them with gold [02091].
5 And he put [0935] the staves [0905] into the rings [02885] by the sides [06763] of the ark [0727], to bear [05375] the ark [0727].
6 And he made [06213] the mercy seat [03727] of pure [02889] gold [02091]: two cubits [0520] and a half [02677] was the length [0753] thereof, and one cubit [0520] and a half [02677] the breadth [07341] thereof.
7 And he made [06213] two [08147] cherubims [03742] of gold [02091], beaten out of one piece [04749] made [06213] he them, on the two [08147] ends [07098] of the mercy seat [03727];
8 One [0259] cherub [03742] on the end [07098] on this side, and another [0259] cherub [03742] on the other end [07098] on that side: out of the mercy seat [03727] made [06213] he the cherubims [03742] on the two [08147] ends [07098] [07099] thereof.
9 And the cherubims [03742] spread out [06566] their wings [03671] on high [04605], and covered [05526] with their wings [03671] over the mercy seat [03727], with their faces [06440] one [0376] to another [0251]; even to the mercy seatward [03727] were the faces [06440] of the cherubims [03742].
19 And [2532] the temple [3485] of God [2316] was opened [455] in [1722] heaven [3772], and [2532] there was seen [3700] in [1722] his [846] temple [3485] the ark [2787] of his [846] testament [1242]: and [2532] there were [1096] lightnings [796], and [2532] voices [5456], and [2532] thunderings [1027], and [2532] an earthquake [4578], and [2532] great [3173] hail [5464].
11 And it came to pass on the twentieth [06242] day of the second [08145] month [02320], in the second [08145] year [08141], that the cloud [06051] was taken up [05927] from off the tabernacle [04908] of the testimony [05715].
6 And thou shalt put [05414] it before [06440] the vail [06532] that is by the ark [0727] of the testimony [05715], before [06440] the mercy seat [03727] that is over the testimony [05715], where I will meet [03259] with thee.
12 And it was told [05046] king [04428] David [01732], saying [0559], The LORD [03068] hath blessed [01288] the house [01004] of Obededom [05654], and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark [0727] of God [0430]. So David [01732] went [03212] and brought up [05927] the ark [0727] of God [0430] from the house [01004] of Obededom [05654] into the city [05892] of David [01732] with gladness [08057].
21 And he brought [0935] the ark [0727] into the tabernacle [04908], and set up [07760] the vail [06532] of the covering [04539], and covered [05526] the ark [0727] of the testimony [05715]; as the LORD [03068] commanded [06680] Moses [04872].
18 And Moses [04872] reared up [06965] the tabernacle [04908], and fastened [05414] his sockets [0134], and set up [07760] the boards [07175] thereof, and put [05414] in the bars [01280] thereof, and reared up [06965] his pillars [05982].
33 And thou shalt hang up [05414] the vail [06532] under the taches [07165], that thou mayest bring [0935] in thither within [01004] the vail [06532] the ark [0727] of the testimony [05715]: and the vail [06532] shall divide [0914] unto you between the holy [06944] place and the most [06944] holy [06944].
18 And thou shalt make [06213] two [08147] cherubims [03742] of gold [02091], of beaten work [04749] shalt thou make [06213] them, in the two [08147] ends [07098] of the mercy seat [03727].
19 And make [06213] one [0259] cherub [03742] on the one end [07098], and the other [0259] cherub [03742] on the other [02088] end [07098]: even of the mercy seat [03727] shall ye make [06213] the cherubims [03742] on the two [08147] ends [07098] thereof.
20 And the cherubims [03742] shall stretch [06566] forth their wings [03671] on high [04605], covering [05526] the mercy seat [03727] with their wings [03671], and their faces [06440] shall look one [0376] to another [0251]; toward the mercy seat [03727] shall the faces [06440] of the cherubims [03742] be.
17 And thou shalt make [06213] a mercy seat [03727] of pure [02889] gold [02091]: two cubits [0520] and a half [02677] shall be the length [0753] thereof, and a cubit [0520] and a half [02677] the breadth [07341] thereof.
