כִּי אִֽם-אֶל-הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר-יִבְחַר יְהוָה אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם מִכָּל-שִׁבְטֵיכֶם לָשׂוּם אֶת-שְׁמוֹ שָׁם לְשִׁכְנוֹ תִדְרְשׁוּ וּבָאתָ שָֽׁמָּה׃
But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come:
וַיָּבֹא יַֽעֲקֹב שָׁלֵם עִיר שְׁכֶם אֲשֶׁר בְּאֶרֶץ כְּנַעַן בְּבֹאוֹ מִפַּדַּן אֲרָם וַיִּחַן אֶת-פְּנֵי הָעִֽיר׃
And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padan-aram; and pitched his tent before the city.
וַיֵּרָא יְהוָה אֶל-שְׁלֹמֹה בַּלָּיְלָה וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ שָׁמַעְתִּי אֶת-תְּפִלָּתֶךָ וּבָחַרְתִּי בַּמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה לִי לְבֵית זָֽבַח׃
And the LORD appeared to Solomon by night, and said unto him, I have heard thy prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for an house of sacrifice.
אֵלֶּה יַֽעַמְדוּ לְבָרֵךְ אֶת-הָעָם עַל-הַר גְּרִזִים בְּעָבְרְכֶם אֶת-הַיַּרְדֵּן שִׁמְעוֹן וְלֵוִי וִֽיהוּדָה וְיִשָּׂשכָר וְיוֹסֵף וּבִנְיָמִֽן׃
These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when ye are come over Jordan; Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin:
וְהָיָה כִּי יְבִֽיאֲךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֶל-הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר-אַתָּה בָא-שָׁמָּה לְרִשְׁתָּהּ וְנָֽתַתָּה אֶת-הַבְּרָכָה עַל-הַר גְּרִזִים וְאֶת-הַקְּלָלָה עַל-הַר עֵיבָֽל׃
And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal.
וַיַּֽעֲבֹר אַבְרָם בָּאָרֶץ עַד מְקוֹם שְׁכֶם עַד אֵלוֹן מוֹרֶה וְהַֽכְּנַעֲנִי אָז בָּאָֽרֶץ׃
And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
וַיִּבְחַר אֶת-שֵׁבֶט יְהוּדָה אֶֽת-הַר צִיּוֹן אֲשֶׁר אָהֵֽב׃
But chose the tribe of Judah, the mount Zion which he loved.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד זֶה הוּא בֵּית יְהוָה הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְזֶה-מִּזְבֵּחַ לְעֹלָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Then David said, This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.
כִּֽי-בָחַר יְהוָה בְּצִיּוֹן אִוָּהּ לְמוֹשָׁב לֽוֹ׃
For the LORD hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.
καὶ οὐκ ἐδέξαντο αὐτόν ὅτι τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ἦν πορευόμενον εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ
And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֵלָיו שָׁמַעְתִּי אֶת-תְּפִלָּֽתְךָ וְאֶת-תְּחִנָּֽתְךָ אֲשֶׁר הִתְחַנַּנְתָּה לְפָנַי הִקְדַּשְׁתִּי אֶת-הַבַּיִת הַזֶּה אֲשֶׁר בָּנִתָה לָֽשׂוּם-שְׁמִי שָׁם עַד-עוֹלָם וְהָיוּ עֵינַי וְלִבִּי שָׁם כָּל-הַיָּמִֽים׃
And the LORD 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.
וְכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וּזְקֵנָיו וְשֹֽׁטְרִים׀ וְשֹֽׁפְטָיו עֹֽמְדִים מִזֶּה׀ וּמִזֶּה׀ לָֽאָרוֹן נֶגֶד הַכֹּֽהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם נֹֽשְׂאֵי׀ אֲרוֹן בְּרִית-יְהוָה כַּגֵּר כָּֽאֶזְרָח חֶצְיוֹ אֶל-מוּל הַר-גְּרִזִים וְהַֽחֶצְיוֹ אֶל-מוּל הַר-עֵיבָל כַּֽאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה מֹשֶׁה עֶֽבֶד-יְהוָה לְבָרֵךְ אֶת-הָעָם יִשְׂרָאֵל בָּרִֽאשֹׁנָֽה׃
And all Israel, and their elders, and officers, and their judges, stood on this side the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, as well the stranger, as he that was born among them; half of them over against mount Gerizim, and half of them over against mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ לְמֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר לֵאמֹר הַגּוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר הִגְלִיתָ וַתּוֹשֶׁב בְּעָרֵי שֹֽׁמְרוֹן לֹא יָֽדְעוּ אֶת-מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵי הָאָרֶץ וַיְשַׁלַּח-בָּם אֶת-הָֽאֲרָיוֹת וְהִנָּם מְמִיתִים אוֹתָם כַּֽאֲשֶׁר אֵינָם יֹֽדְעִים אֶת-מִשְׁפַּט אֱלֹהֵי הָאָֽרֶץ׃
Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.
וַיִּבֶן שָׁם דָּוִיד מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָה וַיַּעַל עֹלוֹת וּשְׁלָמִים וַיִּקְרָא אֶל-יְהוָה וַֽיַּעֲנֵהוּ בָאֵשׁ מִן-הַשָּׁמַיִם עַל מִזְבַּח הָֽעֹלָֽה׃
And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.
וָֽאֶבְחַר בִּירוּשָׁלִַם לִֽהְיוֹת שְׁמִי שָׁם וָֽאֶבְחַר בְּדָוִיד לִֽהְיוֹת עַל-עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
But I have chosen Jerusalem, that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.
וְעַתָּה בָּחַרְתִּי וְהִקְדַּשְׁתִּי אֶת-הַבַּיִת הַזֶּה לִֽהְיוֹת-שְׁמִי שָׁם עַד-עוֹלָם וְהָיוּ עֵינַי וְלִבִּי שָׁם כָּל-הַיָּמִֽים׃
For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
וַיֵּאָסְפוּ כָּל-בַּֽעֲלֵי שְׁכֶם וְכָל-בֵּית מִלּוֹא וַיֵּלְכוּ וַיַּמְלִיכוּ אֶת-אֲבִימֶלֶךְ לְמֶלֶךְ עִם-אֵלוֹן מֻצָּב אֲשֶׁר בִּשְׁכֶֽם׃
