H1961–הָיָה–ha.yah

And the LORD said to David my father, Whereas it was in thy heart to build a house to my name, thou didst well that it was in thy heart.

הָיָה֙ ha.Yah “it was”הָיָ֖ה ha.Yah “it was”

That thy eyes may be open towards this house night and day, even towards the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken to the prayer which thy servant shall make towards this place.

לִהְיוֹת֩ (הְיוֹת֩) h.yOt “be”יִהְיֶ֥ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they have sinned against thee; if they pray towards this place, and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou afflictest them:

יִהְיֶ֥ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

If there shall be in the land famine, if there shall be pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, or if there shall be caterpillar; if their enemy shall besiege them in the land of their cities, whatever plague, whatever sickness there shall be;

יִהְיֶ֣ה yih.Yeh “it will be”יִ֠הְיֶה Yih.yeh “it will be”יִהְיֶ֔ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

Whatever prayer and supplication shall be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, who shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands towards this house:

תִֽהְיֶה֙ tih.Yeh “it will belong”

That thy eyes may be open to the supplication of thy servant, and to the supplication of thy people Israel, to hearken to them in all their supplications to thee.

לִהְי֨וֹת (הְי֨וֹת) h.Yot “be”

And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD, from kneeling on his knees, with his hands spread up to heaven.

וַיְהִ֣י׀ (יְהִ֣י) y.Hi “it was”

The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:

יְהִ֨י ye.Hi “may he be”הָיָ֖ה ha.Yah “he was”

And let these my words with which I have made supplication before the LORD, be nigh to the LORD our God day and night, that he may maintain the cause of his servant, and the cause of his people Israel at all times, as the matter shall require:

וְיִֽהְי֨וּ (יִֽהְי֨וּ) yih.Yu “may they be”

Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.

וְהָיָ֤ה (הָיָ֤ה) ha.Yah “it will be”

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 perform,

וַיְהִי֙ (יְהִי֙) y.Hi “it was”

And the LORD said to 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 my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.

וְהָי֨וּ (הָי֨וּ) ha.Yu “they will be”

Then will I cut off Israel from the land which I have given them; and this house which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a by-word among all people:

וְהָיָ֧ה (הָיָ֧ה) ha.Yah “it will become”

And at this house which is high, every one that passeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus to this land, and to this house?

יִהְיֶ֣ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD, and the king's house,

וַיְהִ֗י (יְהִ֗י) y.Hi “it was”

And all the cities of store that Solomon had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

הָי֣וּ ha.Yu “they belonged”

And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices, and very much gold, and precious stones: and when she had come to Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.

הָיָ֖ה ha.Yah “it was”

And Solomon told her all her questions: there was not any thing hid from the king, which he told her not.

הָיָ֤ה ha.Yah “it was”

And the provisions of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cup-bearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit in her.

הָ֥יָה Ha.yah “it was”

And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in my own land of thy acts and of thy wisdom.

הָיָ֣ה ha.Yah “it was”

Blessed be the LORD thy God, who delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel: because the LORD loved Israel for ever, therefore he made thee king, to do judgment and justice.

יְהִ֨י ye.Hi “may he be”

Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty six talents of gold,

וַֽיְהִי֙ (יְהִי֙) y.Hi “it was”

And Solomon collected chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he bestowed in the cities for chariots, and with the king at Jerusalem.

וַיְהִי־ (יְהִי) y.hi- “it belonged”

And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.

וַיְהִי־ (יְהִי) y.hi- “it belonged”

For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.

וַיְהִ֗י (יְהִ֗י) y.Hi “it was”הָיָ֨ה ha.Yah “it was”
