2 Chronicles 7:4-10

4Then the kingH4428 and all the peopleH5971 offeredH2076 sacrificeH2077 before Jehovah. 5And kingH4428 SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of twentyH6242 and twoH8147 thousandH505 oxenH1241, and a hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 sheepH6629. So the kingH4428 and all the peopleH5971 dedicated the houseH1004 of GodH430. 6And the priestsH3548 stoodH5975, according to their offices; the LevitesH3881 also with instrumentsH3627 of music of Jehovah, which DavidH1732 the kingH4428 had madeH6213 to giveH3034 thanksH3034 unto Jehovah (for his lovingkindness endureth for everH5769), when DavidH1732 praisedH1984 by their ministry: and the priestsH3548 sounded trumpetsH2690 before them; and all IsraelH3478 stoodH5975. 7Moreover SolomonH8010 hallowed the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was before the houseH1004 of Jehovah; for there he offered the burnt-offerings, and the fatH2459 of the peace-offerings, because the brazen altarH4196 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 was not ableH3201 to receive the burnt-offering, and the meal-offering, and the fatH2459.

8So SolomonH8010 held the feastH2282 at that timeH6256 sevenH7651 daysH3117, and all IsraelH3478 with him, a veryH3966 greatH1419 assemblyH6951, from the entrance of HamathH2574 unto the brook of EgyptH4714. 9And on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 they held a solemnH6116 assemblyH6116: for they kept the dedicationH2598 of the altarH4196 sevenH7651 daysH3117, and the feastH2282 sevenH7651 daysH3117. 10And on the threeH7969 and twentieth dayH3117 of the seventhH7637 monthH2320 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971 unto their tentsH168, joyfulH8056 and glad of heartH3820 for the goodness that Jehovah had showed unto DavidH1732, and to SolomonH8010, and to IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971.
