² Then Solomon ^H8010 assembled ^H6950 the elders ^H2205 of Israel, ^H3478 and all the heads ^H7218 of the tribes, ^H4294 the chief ^H5387 of the fathers ^H1 of the children ^H1121 of Israel, ^H3478 unto Jerusalem, ^H3389 to bring up ^H5927 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the LORD ^H3068 out of the city ^H5892 of David, ^H1732 which is Zion. ^H6726

³ Wherefore all the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 assembled ^H6950 themselves unto the king ^H4428 in the feast ^H2282 which was in the seventh ^H7637 month. ^H2320

⁴ And all the elders ^H2205 of Israel ^H3478 came; ^H935 and the Levites ^H3881 took up ^H5375 the ark. ^H727

⁵ And they brought up ^H5927 the ark, ^H727 and the tabernacle ^H168 of the congregation, ^H4150 and all the holy ^H6944 vessels ^H3627 that were in the tabernacle, ^H168 these did the priests ^H3548 and the Levites ^H3881 bring up. ^H5927

⁶ Also king ^H4428 Solomon, ^H8010 and all the congregation ^H5712 of Israel ^H3478 that were assembled ^H3259 unto him before ^H6440 the ark, ^H727 sacrificed ^H2076 sheep ^H6629 and oxen, ^H1241 which could not be told ^H5608 nor numbered ^H4487 for multitude. ^H7230

⁷ And the priests ^H3548 brought in ^H935 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the LORD ^H3068 unto his place, ^H4725 to the oracle ^H1687 of the house, ^H1004 into the most ^H6944 holy ^H6944 place, even under the wings ^H3671 of the cherubims: ^H3742

⁸ For the cherubims ^H3742 spread forth ^H6566 their wings ^H3671 over the place ^H4725 of the ark, ^H727 and the cherubims ^H3742 covered ^H3680 the ark ^H727 and the staves ^H905 thereof above. ^H4605

⁹ And they drew out ^H748 the staves ^H905 of the ark, that the ends ^H7218 of the staves ^H905 were seen ^H7200 from the ark ^H727 before ^H6440 the oracle; ^H1687 but they were not seen ^H7200 without. ^H2351 And there it is unto this day. ^H3117

¹⁰ There was nothing in the ark ^H727 save the two ^H8147 tables ^H3871 which Moses ^H4872 put ^H5414 therein at Horeb, ^H2722 when the LORD ^H3068 made ^H3772 a covenant with the children ^H1121 of Israel, ^H3478 when they came out ^H3318 of Egypt. ^H4714
