1 Kings 8:11 in Context — 1 Kings 8
9 Il n’y avait dans l’arche que les deux tables de pierre, que Moïse y déposa en Horeb, lorsque l’Éternel fit alliance avec les enfants d’Israël, à leur sortie du pays d’Égypte.
10 Au moment où les sacrificateurs sortirent du lieu saint, la nuée remplit la maison de l’Éternel.
11 Les sacrificateurs ne purent pas y rester pour faire le service, à cause de la nuée; car la gloire de l’Éternel remplissait la maison de l’Éternel.
12 Alors Salomon dit: L’Éternel veut habiter dans l’obscurité!
13 J’ai bâti une maison qui sera ta demeure, un lieu où tu résideras éternellement!
