3
And when all the sons of Israel saw the fire come down and the glory of the LORD upon the house, they fell to the ground upon the pavement upon their faces and worshipped and praised the LORD,
saying, For
he is good, for his mercy endures for ever.
4
Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before the LORD.
5
And King Solomon offered in sacrifice twenty-two thousand oxen and one hundred and twenty thousand sheep; and so the king and all the people dedicated the house of God.
6
And the priests were upon their watches, and the Levites with the instruments of music of the LORD, which David the king had made to praise the LORD, because his mercy
endures for ever, when David praised by their hand. Likewise, the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Israel was on their feet.
7
Solomon also sanctified the middle of the court that
was before the house of the LORD, for there he offered burnt offerings and the fat of the peace
offerings because the brasen altar which Solomon had made was not able to receive the burnt offerings and the present and the fat.
