Nor could the priests stand and minister by reason of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.

and the priests could not stand to do their service because of the cloud; for the glory of Jehovah had filled the house of God.

and the priests have not been able to stand to minister from the presence of the cloud, for the honour of Jehovah hath filled the house of God.

So that the priests were not able to keep their places to do their work because of the cloud; for the house of God was full of the glory of the Lord.

so that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the glory of the LORD filled God's house.

Neither were the priests able to stand and to minister, because of the cloud. For the glory of the Lord had filled the house of God.

The priests could not stand - What a proof of the being of God, and of the Divine presence! What must those holy men have felt at this time!

2-Chronicles 5:14, again, agrees with 1-Kings 8:6, and has been there commented upon.

Glory of the Lord - And this beautified it more than all the gold with which it was overlaid, or the precious stones with which it was garnished. Yet even that was no glory, in comparison of the glory of the gospel - dispensation.
