Shelomoh’s address to the people

8:14 Shelomoh’s address to the people

Full kingdom

(2 Chr. 6:3-11)

14Then while all the people stood there, the king turned around and pronounced a blessing on all Yisrael, 15saying, “Blessed is Yahweh, the God of Yisrael, who spoke audibly to my father David, and then put into action the promise he’d given, 16‘From the day when I brought my people Yisrael out of Egypt, I didn’t choose a city from among all the tribes of Yisrael to build a house in so that my name would be established there. Instead I chose David to lead my people Yisrael.’ ”[ref]

17Shelomoh continued, “My father David wanted to build a temple to confirm Yahweh’s power and authority here.[ref] 18However, Yahweh told him that it was good that he wanted to build a temple for him, 19however he wouldn’t be the one to build it, because it would be his biological son who would do it.[ref]

20Now Yahweh has put his promise into action, and I’m here now having succeeded my father David—sitting on Yisrael’s throne just as Yahweh said, and I’ve been the one to build the residence for Yisrael’s God Yahweh. 21I’ve included a place for the box containing the two stone tablets with the agreement that Yahweh made with our ancestors when he brought them out of Egypt.”
