- The priests stood at their posts, and the Levites also, with the instruments of music to the LORD, which King David had made for giving praise to the LORD--"for His lovingkindness is everlasting"--whenever he gave praise by their means, while the priests on the other side blew trumpets; and all Israel was standing.
- Then Solomon consecrated the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD, for there he offered the burnt offerings and the fat of the peace offerings because the bronze altar which Solomon had made was not able to contain the burnt offering, the grain offering and the fat.
- So Solomon observed the feast at that time for seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great assembly who came from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of Egypt.
- On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly, for the dedication of the altar they observed seven days and the feast seven days.
- Then on the twenty-third day of the seventh month he sent the people to their tents, rejoicing and happy of heart because of the goodness that the LORD had shown to David and to Solomon and to His people Israel.

- 祭司侍立、各供其職.利未人也拿著耶和華的樂器、就是大衛王造出來、藉利未人頌讚耶和華的.(他的慈愛永遠長存)祭司在眾人面前吹號.以色列人都站立。
- 所羅門因他所造的銅壇、容不下燔祭、素祭和脂油、便將耶和華殿前院子當中分別為聖、在那裡獻燔祭和平安祭牲的脂油。
- 那時所羅門和以色列眾人、就是從哈馬口直到埃及小河所有的以色列人、都聚集、成為大會、守節七日。
- 第八日設立嚴肅會.行奉獻壇的禮七日、守節七日。
- 七月二十三日、王遣散眾民.他們因見耶和華向大衛和所羅門與他民以色列所施的恩惠、就都心中喜樂、各歸各家去了。
