The Second Book of the Chronicles
CHAPTER 1
2 Chronicles 1:1
1 And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the
LORD his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly. 2 Chronicles 1:2
2 Then Solomon spake unto all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of
hundreds, and to the judges, and to every governor in all Israel, the chief
of the fathers.
2 Chronicles 1:3
3 So Solomon, and all the congregation with him, went to the high place
that was at Gibeon; for there was the tabernacle of the congregation of
God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness. 2
Chronicles 1:4
4 But the ark of God had David brought up from Kirjathjearim to the place
which David had prepared for it: for he had pitched a tent for it at
Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 1:5
5 Moreover the brasen altar, that Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur,
had made, he put before the tabernacle of the LORD: and Solomon  and the
congregation  sought  unto it.
2 Chronicles 1:6
6 And Solomon went up thither to the brasen altar before the LORD, which
was at the tabernacle of the congregation, and offered a thousand burnt
offerings upon it.
2 Chronicles 1:7
7 In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I
shall give thee.
2 Chronicles 1:8
8 And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy unto David my
father, and hast made me to reign in his stead. 2 Chronicles 1:9
9 Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for
thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in
multitude.
2 Chronicles 1:10
10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before
this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great? 2
Chronicles 1:11
11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast
not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither
yet hast asked long life;  but hast asked  wisdom  and knowledge  for
thyself, that thou mayest judge  my people,  over whom I have made thee
king:
2 Chronicles 1:12
12 Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches,
and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been
before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like. 2 Chronicles
1:13
13 Then Solomon came from his journey to the high place that was at Gibeon
to Jerusalem, from before the tabernacle of the congregation, and reigned
over Israel.
2 Chronicles 1:14
14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and
four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, which he placed in the
chariot  cities,  and with the king  at Jerusalem. 2 Chronicles 1:15
15 And the king made silver and gold at Jerusalem as plenteous as stones,
and cedar trees made he as the sycomore trees that are in the vale for
abundance.
2 Chronicles 1:16
16 And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and linen yarn: the king's
merchants received the linen yarn at a price. 2 Chronicles 1:17
17 And they fetched up, and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot for six
hundred shekels of silver, and an horse for an hundred and fifty: and so
brought they out horses for all the kings of the Hittites,  and for the
kings  of Syria,  by their means.
CHAPTER 2
2 Chronicles 2:1
1 And Solomon determined to build an house for the name of the LORD, and an
house for his kingdom.
2 Chronicles 2:2
2 And Solomon told out threescore and ten thousand men to bear burdens, and
fourscore thousand to hew in the mountain, and three thousand and six
hundred  to oversee  them.
2 Chronicles 2:3
3 And Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, As thou didst deal
with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him an house  to
dwell  therein, even so deal with me. 2 Chronicles 2:4
4 Behold, I build an house to the name of the LORD my God, to dedicate it
to him, and to burn before him sweet incense, and for the continual
shewbread, and for the burnt offerings  morning  and evening,  on the
sabbaths,  and on the new moons,  and on the solemn feasts  of the LORD 
our God.  This is an ordinance for ever  to Israel.
2 Chronicles 2:5
5 And the house which I build is great: for great is our God above all
gods. 2 Chronicles 2:6
6 But who is able to build him an house, seeing the heaven and heaven of
heavens cannot contain him? who am I then, that I should build him an
house, save only to burn sacrifice before him? 2 Chronicles 2:7
7 Send me now therefore a man cunning to work in gold, and in silver, and
in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and that can
skill to grave  with the cunning men  that are with me in Judah  and in
Jerusalem, whom David  my father  did provide. 2 Chronicles 2:8
8 Send me also cedar trees, fir trees, and algum trees, out of Lebanon: for
I know that thy servants can skill to cut timber in Lebanon; and, behold,
my servants  shall be with thy servants, 2 Chronicles 2:9
9 Even to prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I am about to
build shall be wonderful great.
2 Chronicles 2:10
10 And, behold, I will give to thy servants, the hewers that cut timber,
twenty thousand measures of beaten wheat, and twenty thousand measures  of
barley,  and twenty  thousand  baths  of wine,  and twenty  thousand  baths
of oil.
2 Chronicles 2:11
11 Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to
Solomon, Because the LORD hath loved his people, he hath made thee king
over them.
2 Chronicles 2:12
12 Huram said moreover, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, that made heaven
and earth, who hath given to David the king a wise  son,  endued  with
prudence  and understanding,  that might build  an house  for the LORD, 
and an house  for his kingdom.
2 Chronicles 2:13
13 And now I have sent a cunning man, endued with understanding, of Huram
my father's,
2 Chronicles 2:14
14 The son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father was a man of
Tyre, skilful to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron,  in stone,
and in timber,  in purple,  in blue,  and in fine linen,  and in crimson;
also to grave  any manner of graving,  and to find out  every device  which
shall be put  to him, with thy cunning men,  and with the cunning men  of
my lord  David  thy father.
2 Chronicles 2:15
15 Now therefore the wheat, and the barley, the oil, and the wine, which my
lord hath spoken of, let him send unto his servants: 2 Chronicles 2:16
16 And we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as thou shalt need: and we
will bring it to thee in floats by sea to Joppa; and thou shalt carry it up
to Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 2:17
17 And Solomon numbered all the strangers that were in the land of Israel,
after the numbering wherewith David his father had numbered them; and they
were found an hundred and fifty  thousand  and three  thousand  and six
hundred.
2 Chronicles 2:18
18 And he set threescore and ten thousand of them to be bearers of burdens,
and fourscore thousand to be hewers in the mountain, and three thousand and
six hundred overseers  to set  the people  a work. CHAPTER 3
2 Chronicles 3:1
1 Then Solomon began to build the house of the LORD at Jerusalem in mount
Moriah, where the LORD appeared unto David his father, in the place that
David  had prepared  in the threshingfloor  of Ornan  the Jebusite. 2
Chronicles 3:2
2 And he began to build in the second day of the second month, in the
fourth year of his reign.
2 Chronicles 3:3
3 Now these are the things wherein Solomon was instructed for the building
of the house of God. The length by cubits after the first measure was
threescore cubits, and the breadth twenty  cubits. 2 Chronicles 3:4
4 And the porch that was in the front of the house, the length of it was
according to the breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the height was an
hundred and twenty: and he overlaid it within  with pure  gold. 2
Chronicles 3:5
5 And the greater house he cieled with fir tree, which he overlaid with
fine gold, and set thereon palm trees and chains. 2 Chronicles 3:6
6 And he garnished the house with precious stones for beauty: and the gold
was gold of Parvaim.
2 Chronicles 3:7
7 He overlaid also the house, the beams, the posts, and the walls thereof,
and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubims on the walls. 2
Chronicles 3:8
8 And he made the most holy house, the length whereof was according to the
breadth of the house, twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits:
and he overlaid  it with fine  gold,  amounting to six  hundred  talents. 2
Chronicles 3:9
9 And the weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold. And he overlaid
the upper chambers with gold.
2 Chronicles 3:10
10 And in the most holy house he made two cherubims of image work, and
overlaid them with gold.
2 Chronicles 3:11
11 And the wings of the cherubims were twenty cubits long: one wing of the
one cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the
other wing  was likewise five  cubits,  reaching  to the wing  of the other
cherub.
2 Chronicles 3:12
12 And one wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall
of the house: and the other wing was five cubits  also, joining  to the
wing of the other  cherub.
2 Chronicles 3:13
13 The wings of these cherubims spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and
they stood on their feet, and their faces were inward. 2 Chronicles 3:14
14 And he made the vail of blue, and purple, and crimson, and fine linen,
and wrought cherubims thereon.
2 Chronicles 3:15
15 Also he made before the house two pillars of thirty and five cubits
high, and the chapiter that was on the top of each of them was five cubits.
2 Chronicles 3:16
16 And he made chains, as in the oracle, and put them on the heads of the
pillars; and made an hundred pomegranates, and put them on the chains. 2
Chronicles 3:17
17 And he reared up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand,
and the other on the left; and called the name of that on the right hand
Jachin, and the name  of that on the left  Boaz.
