2 Chronicles 8:16

Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected.

The verse stands within the account of Solomon's reign that gives special attention to the building and services of the temple. All the work for the house of the Lord was prepared from the day its foundation was laid until it was finished. When that continuous preparation reached its end, the house was perfected and complete.

The word rendered perfected is the Hebrew kalah, meaning the finishing or completing of the temple work.
