menu_book Verse in Context

11 The LORD’s word came to Solomon, saying,

12 “Concerning this house which you are building, if you will walk in my statutes, and execute my ordinances, and keep all my commandments to walk in them, then I will establish my word with you, which I spoke to David your father.

13 I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.”

15 He built the walls of the house within with boards of cedar; from the floor of the house to the walls of the ceiling, he covered them on the inside with wood. He covered the floor of the house with cypress boards.
