Solomon finished the Lord’s temple and the royal palace and completed everything he had in mind for the Lord’s temple and his own palace.
Solomon gave orders to begin building the temple for the Lord’s name and a royal palace for himself.
On the twenty-third day of the seventh month, Solomon dismissed the people to their tents. They rejoiced with cheerful hearts for all the blessings the Lord had given David, Solomon, and his people Israel.
I accomplished some great things: I built houses for myself. I planted vineyards for myself.
