1 Reyes 8:65-66

65 Así Salomón celebró la fiesta en aquella ocasión, y todo Israel con él, una gran asamblea desde la entrada de Hamat hasta el torrente de Egipto, delante del SEÑOR nuestro Dios, por siete días y siete días más, o sea catorce días.

66 Al octavo día despidió al pueblo. Ellos bendijeron al rey, y se fueron a sus tiendas gozosos y alegres de corazón por todo el bien que el SEÑOR había mostrado a su siervo David y a su pueblo Israel.
