Chapter 7 Now when Solomon had made an end
of praying, the fire came down from heaven

00:07.040 --> 00:09.800
and consumed the burnt offering and the
sacrifices.

00:10.580 --> 00:12.620
And the glory of the Lord filled the
house.

00:13.420 --> 00:17.620
And the priests could not enter into the
house of the Lord because the glory of the

00:17.620 --> 00:19.360
Lord had filled the Lord's house.

00:21.060 --> 00:25.760
And when all the children of Israel saw
how the fire came down and the glory of

00:25.760 --> 00:30.180
the Lord upon the house, they bowed
themselves with their faces to the ground

00:30.180 --> 00:35.540
upon the pavement and worshipped and
praised the Lord, saying, For he is good,

00:35.940 --> 00:38.180
for his mercy endureth forever.

00:38.700 --> 00:41.760
Then the king and all the people offered
sacrifices before the Lord.

00:42.500 --> 00:48.820
And King Solomon offered a sacrifice of 20
and 2,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep.

00:49.740 --> 00:53.460
So the king and all the people dedicated
the house of God.

00:54.200 --> 00:58.920
And the priests waited on their offices,
the Levites also with instruments of music

00:58.920 --> 01:03.700
of the Lord, which David the king had made
to praise the Lord, because his mercy

01:03.700 --> 01:04.700
endureth forever.

01:05.780 --> 01:10.200
When David praised by their ministry,
and the priests sounded trumpets before

01:10.200 --> 01:12.240
them, and all Israel stood.

01:13.460 --> 01:17.280
Moreover Solomon hallowed the middle of
the court that was before the house of the

01:17.280 --> 01:17.560
Lord.

01:18.300 --> 01:21.960
For there he offered burnt offerings and
the fat of the peace offerings,

01:21.960 --> 01:26.860
because the brassen altar, which Solomon
had made, was not able to receive the

01:26.860 --> 01:29.780
burnt offerings, and the meat offerings,
and the fat.

01:30.740 --> 01:35.840
Also at the same time Solomon kept the
feast seven days, and all Israel with him,

01:36.140 --> 01:40.580
a very great congregation, from the
entering inn of Hamath unto the river of

01:40.580 --> 01:40.920
Egypt.

01:41.940 --> 01:46.700
And in the eighth day they made a solemn
assembly, for they kept the dedication of

01:46.700 --> 01:49.840
the altar seven days, and the feast seven
days.

01:50.420 --> 01:54.640
And on the three and twentieth day of the
seventh month, he sent the people away

01:54.640 --> 01:59.560
into their tents, glad and merry in heart,
for the goodness that the Lord had showed

01:59.560 --> 02:02.600
unto David, and to Solomon, and to Israel
his people.

02:03.640 --> 02:06.760
Thus Solomon finished the house of the
Lord, and the king's house.

02:07.340 --> 02:10.480
And all that came into Solomon's heart to
make in the house of the Lord,

02:10.860 --> 02:13.720
and in his own house, he prosperously
effected.

02:14.260 --> 02:19.100
And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night,
and said unto him, I have heard thy

02:19.100 --> 02:23.540
prayer, and have chosen this place to
myself for an house of sacrifice.

02:24.500 --> 02:29.680
If I shut up heaven, that there be no
rain, or if I command the locusts to

02:29.680 --> 02:35.160
devour the land, or if I send pestilence
among my people, if my people,

02:35.480 --> 02:41.360
which are called by my name, shall humble
themselves, and pray, and seek my face,

02:41.720 --> 02:46.680
and turn from their wicked ways,
then will I hear from heaven, and will

02:46.680 --> 02:49.380
forgive their sin, and will heal their
land.

02:50.020 --> 02:54.580
Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears
attend unto the prayer that is made in

02:54.580 --> 02:55.160
this place.

02:55.840 --> 03:00.720
For now have I chosen and sanctified this
house, that my name may be there forever,

03:01.320 --> 03:04.820
and mine eyes, and mine heart shall be
there perpetually.

03:05.800 --> 03:11.060
And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before
me, as David thy father walked,

03:11.060 --> 03:15.840
and do according to all that I have
commanded thee, and shalt observe my

03:15.840 --> 03:20.400
statutes and my judgments, then will I
establish the throne of thy kingdom,

03:21.020 --> 03:26.180
according as I have covenanted with David
thy father, saying, There shall not fail

03:26.180 --> 03:28.200
thee a man to be ruler in Israel.

03:28.920 --> 03:34.200
But if ye turn away, and forsake my
statutes and my commandments, which I have

03:34.200 --> 03:40.000
set before you, and shall go and serve
other gods and worship them, then will I

03:40.000 --> 03:43.500
pluck them up by the roots out of my land,
which I have given them.

03:44.060 --> 03:49.500
And this house, which I have sanctified
for my name, will I cast out of my sight,

03:49.960 --> 03:54.020
and will make it to be a proverb and a
byword among all nations.

03:54.780 --> 03:59.260
And this house, which is high,
shall be an astonishment to every one that

03:59.260 --> 04:00.240
passeth by it.

04:00.740 --> 04:06.860
So that he shall say, Why hath the Lord
done thus unto this land and unto this

04:06.860 --> 04:07.260
house?

04:07.260 --> 04:13.020
And it shall be answered, Because they
forsook the Lord God of their fathers,

04:13.540 --> 04:18.600
which brought them forth out of the land
of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods,

04:18.820 --> 04:21.320
and worshipped them, and served them.

04:21.980 --> 04:25.500
Therefore hath he brought all this evil
upon them.
