3 Y como vieron todos los hijos de Israel descender el fuego y la gloria de Jehová sobre la casa, cayeron en tierra sobre sus rostros en el pavimento, y adoraron, confesando á Jehová [y diciendo]: Que es bueno, que su misericordia es para siempre.

4 Entonces el rey y todo el pueblo sacrificaron víctimas delante de Jehová.
