| 8:4 | And they carried the ark of the Lord, and the tabernacle of the covenant, and all the vessels of the Sanctuary, which were in the tabernacle; and the priests and the Levites carried these. |
| 8:5 | Then king Solomon, and the entire multitude of Israel, who had assembled before him, advanced with him before the ark. And they immolated sheep and oxen, which could not be numbered or estimated. |

| 8:12 | Then Solomon said: “The Lord has said that he would dwell in a cloud. |
| 8:13 | Building, I have built a house as your dwelling place, your most firm throne forever.” |
