| 7 1 | When Solomon had ended his prayer, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of Yahweh filled the temple. | Dedication of the temple. 2Chr.7.1-10 | 1Kgs.8.62-66 | וּכְכַלֹּות שְׁלֹמֹה לְהִתְפַּלֵּל וְהָאֵשׁ יָרְדָה מֵהַשָּׁמַיִם וַתֹּאכַל הָעֹלָה וְהַזְּבָחִים וּכְבֹוד יְהוָה מָלֵא אֶת־הַבָּיִת׃ |
| 2 | And the priests could not enter the house of Yahweh, because the glory of Yahweh filled Yahweh's house. | וְלֹא יָכְלוּ הַכֹּהֲנִים לָבֹוא אֶל־בֵּית יְהוָה כִּי־מָלֵא כְבֹוד־יְהוָה אֶת־בֵּית יְהוָה׃ | |
| 3 | When all the children of Israel saw the fire come down and the glory of Yahweh upon the temple, they bowed down with their faces to the earth on the pavement, and worshipped and gave thanks to Yahweh, saying, "For he is good, | וְכֹל בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל רֹאִים בְּרֶדֶת הָאֵשׁ וּכְבֹוד יְהוָה עַל־הַבָּיִת וַיִּכְרְעוּ אַפַּיִם אַרְצָה עַל־הָרִצְפָה וַיִּשְׁתַּחֲווּ וְהֹודֹות לַיהוָה כִּי טֹוב כִּי לְעֹולָם חַסְדֹּו׃ | |
| 4 | Then the king and all the people offered sacrifice before Yahweh. | וְהַמֶּלֶךְ וְכָל־הָעָם זֹבְחִים זֶבַח לִפְנֵי יְהוָה׃ ס | |
| 5 | King Solomon offered as a sacrifice twenty-two thousand oxen and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the people dedicated the house of God. | וַיִּזְבַּח הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־זֶבַח הַבָּקָר עֶשְׂרִים וּשְׁנַיִם אֶלֶף וְצֹאן מֵאָה וְעֶשְׂרִים אָלֶף וַיַּחְנְכוּ אֶת־בֵּית הָאֱלֹהִים הַמֶּלֶךְ וְכָל־הָעָם׃ | |
| 6 | The priests stood at their posts; the Levites also, with the instruments for music to Yahweh which King David had made for giving thanks to Yahweh - for his steadfast love endures for ever - whenever David offered praises by their ministry; opposite them the priests sounded trumpets; and all Israel stood. | וְהַכֹּהֲנִים עַל־מִשְׁמְרֹותָם עֹמְדִים וְהַלְוִיִּם בִּכְלֵי־שִׁיר יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה דָּוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ לְהֹדֹות לַיהוָה כִּי־לְעֹולָם חַסְדֹּו בְּהַלֵּל דָּוִיד בְּיָדָם וְהַכֹּהֲנִים כ= מַחֲצֹצְרִים ק= מַחְצְרִים נֶגְדָּם וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל עֹמְדִים׃ ס | |
| 7 | And Solomon consecrated the middle of the court that was before the house of Yahweh; for there he offered the burnt offering and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar Solomon had made could not hold the burnt offering and the cereal offering and the fat. | וַיְקַדֵּשׁ שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־תֹּוךְ הֶחָצֵר אֲשֶׁר לִפְנֵי בֵית־יְהוָה כִּי־עָשָׂה שָׁם הָעֹלֹות וְאֵת חֶלְבֵי הַשְּׁלָמִים כִּי־מִזְבַּח הַנְּחֹשֶׁת אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה שְׁלֹמֹה לֹא יָכֹול לְהָכִיל אֶת־הָעֹלָה וְאֶת־הַמִּנְחָה וְאֶת־הַחֲלָבִים׃ | |
| 8 | At that time Solomon held the feast for seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great congregation, from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of Egypt. | וַיַּעַשׂ שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־הֶחָג בָּעֵת הַהִיא שִׁבְעַת יָמִים וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל עִמֹּו קָהָל גָּדֹול מְאֹד מִלְּבֹוא חֲמָת עַד־נַחַל מִצְרָיִם׃ | |
| 9 | And on the eighth day they held a solemn assembly; for they had kept the dedication of the altar seven days and the feast seven days. | וַיַּעֲשׂוּ בַּיֹּום הַשְּׁמִינִי עֲצָרֶת כִּי חֲנֻכַּת הַמִּזְבֵּחַ עָשׂוּ שִׁבְעַת יָמִים וְהֶחָג שִׁבְעַת יָמִים׃ | |
| 10 | On the twenty-third day of the seventh month he sent the people away to their homes, joyful and glad of heart for the goodness that Yahweh had shown to David and to Solomon and to Israel his people. | וּבְיֹום עֶשְׂרִים וּשְׁלֹשָׁה לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי שִׁלַּח אֶת־הָעָם לְאָהֳלֵיהֶם שְׂמֵחִים וְטֹובֵי לֵב עַל־הַטֹּובָה אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה יְהוָה לְדָוִיד וְלִשְׁלֹמֹה וּלְיִשְׂרָאֵל עַמֹּו׃ | |
