Kings III 8:4-11

⁴and the tabernacle of testimony, and the holy furniture that was in the tabernacle of testimony.

⁵And the king and all Israel were occupied before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen, without number.

⁶And the priests bring in the ark into its place, into the oracle of the house, even into the holy of holies, under the wings of the cherubs.

⁷For the cherubs spread out their wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubs covered the ark and its holy things above.

⁸And the holy staffs projected, and the ends of the holy staffs appeared out of the holy places in front of the oracle, and were not seen without.

⁹There was nothing in the ark except the two tables of stone, the tables of the covenant which Moses put there in Horeb, which tables the Lord made as a covenant with the children of Israel in their going forth from the land of Egypt.

¹⁰And it came to pass when the priests departed out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house.

¹¹And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, because the glory of the Lord filled the house.
