2 Chronicles 7:4-10

4Then the kingH4428 and all the peopleH5971 offeredH2076 sacrificesH2077 beforeH6440 YhwhH3068. 5And kingH4428 SolomonH8010 offeredH2076 a sacrificeH2077 of twentyH6242 and twoH8147 thousandH505 oxenH1241, and an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 thousandH505 sheepH6629: so the kingH4428 and all the peopleH5971 dedicatedH2596 the houseH1004 of GodH430. 6And the priestsH3548 waitedH5975 on their officesH4931: the LevitesH3881 also with instrumentsH3627 of musickH7892 of YhwhH3068, which DavidH1732 the kingH4428 had madeH6213 to praiseH3034 YhwhH3068, because his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769, when DavidH1732 praisedH1984 by their ministryH3027; and the priestsH3548 sounded trumpetsH2690 before them, and all IsraelH3478 stoodH5975.1 7Moreover SolomonH8010 hallowedH6942 the middleH8432 of the courtH2691 that was beforeH6440 the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068: for there he offeredH6213 burnt offeringsH5930, and the fatH2459 of the peace offeringsH8002, because the brasenH5178 altarH4196 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213 was not ableH3201 to receiveH3557 the burnt offeringsH5930, and the grain offeringsH4503, and the fatH2459.

8Also at the same timeH6256 SolomonH8010 keptH6213 the feastH2282 sevenH7651 daysH3117, and all IsraelH3478 with him, a veryH3966 greatH1419 congregationH6951, from the entering inH935 of HamathH2574 unto the riverH5158 of EgyptH4714. 9And in the eighthH8066 dayH3117 they madeH6213 a solemn assemblyH6116: for they keptH6213 the dedicationH2598 of the altarH4196 sevenH7651 daysH3117, and the feastH2282 sevenH7651 daysH3117.2 10And on the threeH7969 and twentiethH6242 dayH3117 of the seventhH7637 monthH2320 he sentH7971 the peopleH5971 awayH7971 into their tentsH168, gladH8056 and merryH2896 in heartH3820 for the goodnessH2896 that YhwhH3068 had shewedH6213 unto DavidH1732, and to SolomonH8010, and to IsraelH3478 his peopleH5971.
