1 Kings 8:12 in Context — 1 Kings 8
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!
14 Le roi tourna son visage, et bénit toute l’assemblée d’Israël; et toute l’assemblée d’Israël était debout.
