1 Kings 9:8-10
Good News Translation
8 (A)This Temple will become a pile of ruins,[a] and everyone who passes by will be shocked and amazed. ‘Why did the Lord do this to this land and this Temple?’ they will ask. 9 People will answer, ‘It is because they abandoned the Lord their God, who brought their ancestors out of Egypt. They gave their allegiance to other gods and worshiped them. That is why the Lord has brought this disaster on them.’”
Solomon's Agreement with Hiram(B)
10 It took Solomon twenty years to build the Temple and his palace.
