New Testament

2 Chronicles 1:4-9 Amplified Bible (AMP)

4. But David had brought up the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place which David had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.

5. Moreover, the bronze altar that Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made was there before the tabernacle of the Lord, and Solomon and the assembly sought [the Lord].

6. Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the Lord at the Tent of Meeting and offered 1,000 burnt offerings on it.

7. That night God appeared to Solomon and said to him, Ask what I shall give you.

8. And Solomon said to God, You have shown great mercy and loving-kindness to David my father and have made me king in his place.

9. Now, O Lord God, let Your promise to David my father be fulfilled, for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
