(this is a scan from the exact, authentic, original 1611 'HE' King James Bible)

1 Now when Solomon had made an ende of praying, the fire came downe from heauen, and consumed the burnt offering, and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the house.

2 And the Priests could not enter into the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled the Lords house.

3 And when all the children of Israel saw how the fire came downe, and the glory of the Lord vpon the house, they bowed themselues with their faces to the ground vpon the pauement, and worshipped, and praised the Lord, saying, For hee is good, for his mercy endureth for euer.

4 ¶ Then the King and all the people, offered sacrifices before the Lord.

5 And King Solomon offered a sacrifice of twentie and two thousand oxen, and an hundred and twentie thousand sheepe. So the King and all the people, dedicated the house of God.

6 And the Priests waited on their offices: the Leuites also with instruments of musicke of the Lord, which Dauid the King had made to praise the Lord, because his mercy endureth for euer, when Dauid praised by their ministerie: and the Priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel stood.

7 Moreouer, Solomon hallowed the middle of the Court, that was before the house of the Lord: for there hee offered burnt offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen Altar which Solomon had made, was not able to receiue the burnt offerings, and the meat offerings, and the fat.

8 ¶ Also at the same time Solomon kept the feast seuen dayes, and all Israel with him, a very great Congregation, from the entring in of Hamath, vnto the Riuer of Egypt.

9 And in the eight day they made a solemne assembly: for they kept the dedication of the Altar seuen dayes, and the feast seuen dayes.

10 And on the three and twentieth day of the seuenth moneth, he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodnesse that the Lord had shewed vnto Dauid, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people.

11 Thus Solomon finished the house of the Lord, and the Kings house: and all that came into Solomons heart to make in the house of the Lord, and in his owne house, hee prosperously effected.

12 ¶ And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night, and said vnto him, I haue heard thy prayer, and haue chosen this place to my selfe for an house of sacrifice.

13 If I shut vp heauen that there bee no raine, or if I command the locusts to deuoure the land, or if I send pestilence among my people:

14 If my people which are called by my Name, shall humble themselues and pray, and seeke my face, and turne from their wicked wayes: then will I heare from heauen, and will forgiue their sinne, and will heale their land.

15 Now mine eyes shalbe open, and mine eares attent vnto the prayer that is made in this place.

16 For now haue I chosen, & sanctified this house, that my Name may be there for euer: and mine eyes and mine heart shalbe there perpetually.

17 And as for thee, if thou wilt walke before me, as Dauid thy father walked, and doe according to all that I haue commanded thee, and shalt obserue my Statutes, and my Iudgements:

18 Then wil I stablish the throne of thy kingdome, according as I haue couenanted with Dauid thy father, saying, There shall not faile thee a man to be ruler in Israel.

19 But if yee turne away and forsake my Statutes and my Commandements which I haue set before you, and shall goe and serue other gods, and worship them:

20 Then will I plucke them vp by the roots out of my land which I haue giuen them, and this house which I haue sanctified for my Name, wil I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a prouerbe, and a by-word among all nations.

21 And this house which is high, shall be an astonishment to euery one that passeth by it; so that hee shall say; Why hath the Lord done thus vnto this land, and vnto this house?

22 And it shalbe answered, Because they forsooke the Lord God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and layd hold on others gods, and worshipped them, aud serued them: Therefore hath hee brought all this euil vpon them.

Dan\'i's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment on 5/17/2013, 7:56am...

If we would do as the word says in IIChron:14, I feel this entire world and mostly our country would be so much wiser, compassionate to ALL people and truly blessed.

 


Linda's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment about verse 14 on 4/18/2013, 5:04am...

We will be far, far more fruitful if we spend more time with people, sharing the Gospel of Grace (Christ wants to live in you) and demonstrating His goodness, since it is His goodness that causes people to repent and brings healing into the “land” of human hearts. (Rom. 2:24)

The promise of 2 Chron. 7:14 has already been fulfilled in Christ. God has fulfilled His own promise through His own Son by bringing His Kingdom into human hearts; and promising that His Kingdom will one day rule over all the earth. Now, anyone who receives Him as king, receives the healing of 2 Chron. 7:14. We are His Kingdom, we are His land.

 


Minister Stinson's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment on 4/12/2013, 2:05pm...

God is speaking to the church and even we have gone away from the statues, commandments, and judgments of God. Verse 14:"If my people, which are called by my name, etc." would repent from our evil ways, prayer has gotten away from the church. We pray when we need something and it is time again to seek his face and not what he can do for you, because in our seeking; everything else is provided. The world is watching the church folks!

 


Falako ademolu omo-oba's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment about verse 14 on 3/22/2013, 7:44am...

I really learn a very big lesson from this chapter.

 


Leslie's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment about verse 14 on 3/19/2013, 12:16am...

God have laid on my heart to reach all believers to start praying for our world. We have stopped praying; it is time know to pass it on, so that we begin each day with taking five or ten minutes a day and pray to our father in heaven. He will heal the land if you believe. If you don’t stand for something you will fall for nothing. I am getting ready to get people wearing t-shirts with this scripture on the back, 2 Chronicles 7:14. And prayer walks with different people and churches and on the front of the shirt; it will say pray. Put it on the back of your car make the call. God is out in front of us, and support us pray everyone that desires. It is for the believers and they that trust God.

 


RACHEL WAMBUI's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment on 2/27/2013, 1:53am...

A contrite spirit and a humble heart, GOD will not despise. Fasting and prayers are a symbol of that. Therefore we are assured that He will answer our prayers.

 


Estone's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment about verse 14 on 1/11/2013, 1:24pm...

I like you work.

 


Rukenya's 2 Chronicles Chapter 7 comment on 1/09/2013, 8:52am...

God, my God is the God that not only hears prayers but also answers them. He is the God of covenant; and delights in keeping his covenants. He is the just God that rewards men according to their doings. I love this God.
