ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Thou hast shed blood abundantly, and hast made great wars: thou shalt not build an house unto my name, because thou hast shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name, because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Howbeit the LORD God of Israel chose me before all the house of my father to be king over Israel for ever: for he hath chosen Judah to be the ruler; and of the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he liked me to make me king over all Israel:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen eighteen thousand talents, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ The sons of Shelah the son of Judah were, Er the father of Lecah, and Laadah the father of Mareshah, and the families of the house of them that wrought fine linen, of the house of Ashbea,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And Shallum the son of Kore, the son of Ebiasaph, the son of Korah, and his brethren, of the house of his father, the Korahites, were over the work of the service, keepers of the gates of the tabernacle: and their fathers, being over the host of the LORD, were keepers of the entry.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ So they and their children had the oversight of the gates of the house of the LORD, namely, the house of the tabernacle, by wards.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ For these Levites, the four chief porters, were in their set office, and were over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁰ And of the children of Ephraim twenty thousand and eight hundred, mighty men of valour, famous throughout the house of their fathers.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ So David brought not the ark home to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that he had.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obed-edom with joy.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴³ And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² He shall build me an house, and I will stablish his throne for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ But I will settle him in mine house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for evermore.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And David the king came and sat before the LORD, and said, Who am I, O LORD God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And yet this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God; for thou hast also spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ Therefore now, LORD, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ Let it even be established, that thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ Now therefore let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever: for thou blessest, O LORD, and it shall be blessed for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ He shall build an house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And they cast lots, as well the small as the great, according to the house of their fathers, for every gate.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ To Obed-edom southward; and to his sons the house of Asuppim.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT
