9:1

The Second Appearance and the Failsafe of the Kingdom

And it came to pass, when Shalumoh had finished the building of the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and the king's house, and all Shalumoh's desire which he was pleased to do,

9:2

That 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 appeared to Shalumoh the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.

9:3

The Hallowing of the Qodesh House

And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 said unto him, "I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me: I have hallowed this house, which thou hast built, to put my name there for ever; and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually."

9:4

The Condition of the Dawidic Throne

"And if thou wilt walk before me, as Dawid thy father walked, in integrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:"

9:5

"Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Yashar'al for ever, as I promised to Dawid thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Yashar'al."

9:6

The Warning of the Lo Alahiym

"But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other lo alahiym, and worship them:"

9:7

The Prophecy of the Byword

"Then will I cut off Yashar'al out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Yashar'al shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:"

9:8

"And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 done thus unto this land, and to this house?"

9:9

"And they shall answer, Because they forsook 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 their Alahiym, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Mitzrayim, and have taken hold upon other lo alahiym, and have worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 brought upon them all this evil."

9:10

The Geopolitical Transaction with Tyre

And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Shalumoh had built the two houses, the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and the king's house,

9:11

(Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Shalumoh with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire,) that then king Shalumoh gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

9:12

And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Shalumoh had given him; and they pleased him not.

9:13

The Land of Cabul

And he said, "What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother?" And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.

9:14

And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.

9:15

The Architecture of the Empire

And this is the reason of the levy which king Shalumoh raised; for to build the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Yarushalayim, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

9:16

For Pharaoh king of Mitzrayim had gone up, and taken Gezer, and burnt it with fire, and slain the Kena’anites that dwelt in the city, and given it for a present unto his daughter, Shalumoh's wife.

9:17

And Shalumoh built Gezer, and Beth-horon the nether,

9:18

And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,

9:19

And all the cities of store that Shalumoh had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Shalumoh desired to build in Yarushalayim, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

9:20

The Subjugation of the Kena’anite Matrix

And all the people that were left of the Emorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hiwites, and Yebusites, which were not of the children of Yashar'al,

9:21

Their children that were left after them in the land, whom the children of Yashar'al also were not able utterly to destroy, upon those did Shalumoh levy a tribute of bondservice unto this day.

9:22

The Sovereign Status of Yashar’el

But of the children of Yashar'al did Shalumoh make no bondmen: but they were men of war, and his servants, and his princes, and his captains, and rulers of his chariots, and his horsemen.

9:23

These were the chief of the officers that were over Shalumoh's work, five hundred and fifty, which bore rule over the people that wrought in the work.

9:24

The Quarantine of the Mitzrite Queen

But Pharaoh's daughter came up out of the city of Dawid unto her house which Shalumoh had built for her: then did he build Millo.

9:25

The Three Annual Feasts

And three times in a year did Shalumoh offer burnt offerings and peace offerings upon the altar which he built unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, and he burnt incense upon the altar that was before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄. So he finished the house.

9:26

The Fleet at Etziyun-geber

And king Shalumoh made a navy of ships in Etziyun-geber, which is beside Eloth, on the shore of the Yam Suph, in the land of Edom.

9:27

And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen that had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Shalumoh.

9:28

The Gold of Ophir

And they came to Ophir, and fetched from thence gold, four hundred and twenty talents, and brought it to king Shalumoh.
