⁶²Then the king and all of Israel with him offered a sacrifice in the presence of Yahweh. ⁶³Solomon sacrificed the fellowship offerings which he offered to Yahweh: twenty-two thousand oxen and one hundred and twenty thousand sheep; and the king and all of the Israelites^b dedicated the house of Yahweh. ⁶⁴On that day the king consecrated the middle of the courtyard before the house of Yahweh because he offered there the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the fellowship offerings because the bronze altar that was in the presence of Yahweh was too small to hold the burnt offerings and the grain offerings and the fat of the fellowship offerings. ⁶⁵Solomon held the festival at that time and all of Israel with him, a great assembly from Lebo Hamath up to the wadi^c of Egypt before Yahweh our God, for seven days and seven days, a total of fourteen days. ⁶⁶On the eighth day, he sent the people away, and they blessed the king, and they went to their tents rejoicing and in good spirits^d because of all the goodness that Yahweh had shown to David his servant and to Israel his people.
