When Solomon had finished building the temple of the Lord and the royal palace, and had achieved all he had desired to do,

Solomon finished building the Lord’ s temple and the royal palace. He had accomplished everything he had planned to do.

As soon as Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord and the king’s house and all that Solomon desired to build,

When Solomon finished building the temple of the LORD, the royal palace, and all that Solomon desired to do,

Now it came about when Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord and the king’s house, and all that Solomon desired to do,

And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord and the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he wanted to do,

And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of Jehovah, and the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,

When Solomon finished building the temple of the Lord, the royal palace, and all that Solomon desired to do,

And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished the building of the house of the LORD, and the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,

After Solomon finished building the LORD’s temple, the royal palace, and all the other construction projects he had planned,

When Solomon had finished the building of Yahweh’s house, the king’s house, and all Solomon’s desire which he was pleased to do,

He built towns as supply centers and constructed towns where his chariots and horses could be stationed. He built everything he desired in Jerusalem and Lebanon and throughout his entire realm.

So Solomon finished the Temple of the Lord, as well as the royal palace. He completed everything he had planned to do in the construction of the Temple and the palace.Then one night the Lord appeared to Solomon and said,“ I have heard your prayer and have chosen this Temple as the place for making sacrifices.At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or command grasshoppers to devour your crops, or send plagues among you.Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.My eyes will be open and my ears attentive to every prayer made in this place.For I have chosen this Temple and set it apart to be holy— a place where my name will be honored forever. I will always watch over it, for it is dear to my heart.“ As for you, if you faithfully follow me as David your father did, obeying all my commands, decrees, and regulations,then I will establish the throne of your dynasty. For I made this covenant with your father, David, when I said,‘ One of your descendants will always rule over Israel.’“ But if you or your descendants abandon me and disobey the decrees and commands I have given you, and if you serve and worship other gods,then I will uproot the people from this land that I have given them. I will reject this Temple that I have made holy to honor my name. I will make it an object of mockery and ridicule among the nations.And though this Temple is impressive now, all who pass by will be appalled. They will ask,‘ Why did the Lord do such terrible things to this land and to this Temple?’“ And the answer will be,‘ Because his people abandoned the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who brought them out of Egypt, and they worshiped other gods instead and bowed down to them. That is why he has brought all these disasters on them.’”It took Solomon twenty years to build the Lord’s Temple and his own royal palace. At the end of that time,Solomon turned his attention to rebuilding the towns that King Hiram had given him, and he settled Israelites in them.Solomon also fought against the town of Hamath zobah and conquered it.He rebuilt Tadmor in the wilderness and built towns in the region of Hamath as supply centers.He fortified the towns of Upper Beth horon and Lower Beth horon, rebuilding their walls and installing barred gates.He also rebuilt Baalath and other supply centers and constructed towns where his chariots and horses could be stationed. He built everything he desired in Jerusalem and Lebanon and throughout his entire realm.

he gave twenty towns in the land of Galilee to King Hiram of Tyre.( Hiram had previously provided all the cedar and cypress timber and gold that Solomon had requested.)

I also tried to find meaning by building huge homes for myself and by planting beautiful vineyards.

The foundation of the Lord’s Temple was laid in midspring, in the month of Ziv, during the fourth year of Solomon’s reign.The entire building was completed in every detail by midautumn, in the month of Bul, during the eleventh year of his reign. So it took seven years to build the Temple.Solomon also built a palace for himself, and it took him thirteen years to complete the construction.

Anything I wanted, I would take. I denied myself no pleasure. I even found great pleasure in hard work, a reward for all my labors.

Enjoy what you have rather than desiring what you don’t have. Just dreaming about nice things is meaningless— like chasing the wind.

So King Solomon finished all his work on the Temple of the Lord. Then he brought all the gifts his father, David, had dedicated— the silver, the gold, and the various articles— and he stored them in the treasuries of the Lord’s Temple.
