Ver. 12-22. And the Lord appeared to Solomon by night From hence, to the end of the chapter, much the same things are related as in ( 1 Kings 9:2-9 ) , (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:2), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:3), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:4), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:5), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:6), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:7), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:8), (See Gill on 1 Kings 9:9), excepting ( 2 Chronicles 7:13-15 ) which contain an answer to the particular requests made by Solomon in case of a famine or pestilence, that when the people of Israel should humble themselves in prayer and supplication, the Lord would be attentive to them, and forgive them, ( 2 Chronicles 6:26-30 ) and which is given as a specimen, and as encouragement to expect the same treatment in all other cases mentioned in Solomon's prayer, they so behaving.

igitur in die vicesimo tertio mensis septimi dimisit populos ad tabernacula sua laetantes atque gaudentes super bono quod fecerat Dominus David et Salomoni et Israhel populo suo
11
conplevitque Salomon domum Domini et domum regis et omnia quae disposuerat in corde suo ut faceret in domo Domini et in domo sua et prosperatus est
12
apparuit autem ei Dominus nocte et ait audivi orationem tuam et elegi locum istum mihi in domum sacrificii
13
si clausero caelum et pluvia non fluxerit et mandavero et praecepero lucustae ut devoret terram et misero pestilentiam in populum meum
14
conversus autem populus meus super quos invocatum est nomen meum deprecatus me fuerit et exquisierit faciem meam et egerit paenitentiam a viis suis pessimis et ego exaudiam de caelo et propitius ero peccatis eorum et sanabo terram eorum
