2 Chronicles 7:5

Compare all

3 When all the children of Israel saw how the fire came down, and the glory of the Lord on the temple, they bowed their faces to the ground on the pavement, and worshiped and praised the Lord, saying:
^a“For He is good,
^bFor His mercy endures forever.”

4 ^aThen the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the Lord.

5 King Solomon offered a sacrifice of twenty-two thousand bulls and one hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.

6 ^aAnd the priests attended to their services; the Levites also with instruments of the music of the Lord, which King David had made to praise the Lord, saying, “For His mercy endures forever,” whenever David offered praise by their¹ ministry. ^bThe priests sounded trumpets opposite them, while all Israel stood.

7 Furthermore ^aSolomon consecrated the middle of the court that was in front of the house of the Lord; for there he offered burnt offerings and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat.

8 ^aAt that time Solomon kept the feast seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great assembly ^bfrom the entrance of Hamath to ^cthe Brook of Egypt.

9 And on the eighth day they held a ^asacred assembly, for they observed the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
