1 Kings 8:54-66

541When SolomonH8010 had finishedH3615 prayingH6419 thisH2088 entireH3605 prayerH8605 and supplicationH8467 to the LordH3068, 2he aroseH6965 from beforeH6440 the altarH4196 of the LordH3068, from kneelingH3766 on his kneesH1290 with his 3handsH3709 spreadH6566 toward heavenH8064. 55And he stoodH5975 and 4blessedH1288 allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, sayingH559:

56“BlessedH1288 be the LordH3068, whoH834 has givenH5414 restH4496 to His peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, 5according to allH3605 that He 6promisedH1696; 7not oneH259 wordH1697 has 8failedH5307 of allH3605 His goodH2896 9promiseH1697, whichH834 He 10promisedH1696 throughH3027 MosesH4872 His servantH5650. 57May the LordH3068 our GodH430 be with us, as He was with our fathersH1; 11may He not leaveH5800 us or forsakeH5203 us, 58that 12He may inclineH5186 our heartsH3824 to Himself, to walkH1980 in allH3605 His waysH1870 and to keepH8104 His commandmentsH4687 and His statutesH2706 and His ordinancesH4941, whichH834 He commandedH6680 our fathersH1. 59And may theseH428 wordsH1697 of mine, with whichH834 I have madeH2603 supplicationH2603 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, be nearH7138 to the LordH3068 our GodH430 dayH3119 and nightH3915, that He may maintainH6213 the 13causeH4941 of His servantH5650 and the 14causeH4941 of His peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, 15as eachH3117 dayH3117 requiresH1697, 60soH4616 16that allH3605 the peoplesH5971 of the earthH776 may knowH3045 that 17the LordH3068 is GodH430; thereH369 is noH369 oneH369 elseH5750. 6118Let your heartH3824 therefore be 19whollyH8003 devotedH8003 to the LordH3068 our GodH430, to walkH1980 in His statutesH2706 and to keepH8104 His commandmentsH4687, as at thisH2088 dayH3117.”

6220Now the kingH4428 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 with him 21offeredH2076 sacrificeH2077 beforeH6440 the LordH3068. 63SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 for the sacrificeH2077 of peaceH8002 offeringsH8002, whichH834 he offeredH2076 to the LordH3068, 22,000H6242H8147H505 oxenH1241 and 120,000H3967H6242H505 sheepH6629. 22So the kingH4428 and allH3605 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 dedicatedH2596 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068. 64On the sameH1931 dayH3117 the kingH4428 consecratedH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, becauseH3588 thereH8033 he 23offeredH6213 the burntH5930 offeringH5930 and the grain offeringH4503 and the fatH2459 of the peaceH8002 offeringsH8002; for 24the bronzeH5178 altarH4196 that was beforeH6440 the LordH3068 was tooH4480 smallH6996 to holdH3557 the burntH5930 offeringH5930 and the grain offeringH4503 and the fatH2459 of the peaceH8002 offeringsH8002.

65So 25SolomonH8010 observedH6213 the feastH2282 at that timeH6256, and allH3605 IsraelH3478 with him, a greatH1419 assemblyH6951 26from the entranceH935 of HamathH2574 27to the brookH5158 of EgyptH4714, beforeH6440 the LordH3068 our GodH430, for sevenH7651 daysH3117 and sevenH7651 more daysH3117, even fourteenH702H6240 daysH3117. 66On the eighthH8066 dayH3117 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971 and they blessedH1288 the kingH4428. Then they wentH1980 to their tentsH168 joyfulH8056 and gladH2896 of heartH3820 for allH3605 the goodnessH2899 that the LordH3068 had 28shownH6213 to DavidH1732 His servantH5650 and to IsraelH3478 His peopleH5971.
