1 Kings 8:63 in Context — 1 Kings 8

61 Que votre cœur soit tout à l’Éternel, notre Dieu, comme il l’est aujourd’hui, pour suivre ses lois et pour observer ses commandements.

62 Le roi et tout Israël avec lui offrirent des sacrifices devant l’Éternel.

63 Salomon immola vingt-deux mille bœufs et cent vingt mille brebis pour le sacrifice d’actions de grâces qu’il offrit à l’Éternel. Ainsi le roi et tous les enfants d’Israël firent la dédicace de la maison de l’Éternel.

64 En ce jour, le roi consacra le milieu du parvis, qui est devant la maison de l’Éternel; car il offrit là les holocaustes, les offrandes, et les graisses des sacrifices d’actions de grâces, parce que l’autel d’airain qui est devant l’Éternel était trop petit pour contenir les holocaustes, les offrandes, et les graisses des sacrifices d’actions de grâces.

65 Salomon célébra la fête en ce temps-là, et tout Israël avec lui. Une grande multitude, venue depuis les environs de Hamath jusqu’au torrent d’Égypte, s’assembla devant l’Éternel, notre Dieu, pendant sept jours, et sept autres jours, soit quatorze jours.
