2 Chronicles 7:7

Compare all

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.

10 ^aOn the twenty-third day of the seventh month he sent the people away to their tents, joyful and glad of heart for the good that the Lord had done for David, for Solomon, and for His people Israel.

11 Thus ^aSolomon finished the house of the Lord and the king’s house; and Solomon successfully accomplished all that came into his heart to make in the house of the Lord and in his own house.

God’s Second Appearance to Solomon

12 Then the Lord ^aappeared to Solomon by night, and said to him: “I have heard your prayer, ^band have chosen this ^cplace for Myself as a house of sacrifice.
