Israel

Let your heart

<03117>_.
And Solomon
<08010>
<08010>
a sacrifice
<02077>
<02077>
of peace offerings

<08002>_,
unto the LORD

<06629>_.
So the king
<04428>
<04428>
and all the children

<03478>
<03478>

<03068>_.
The same day
<03117>
<03117>
did the king
<04428>
<04428>
the middle

<08432>

<03068>_:
burnt offerings

<04503>_,
and the fat

<08002>_:
because the brasen

<04196>
that [was] before
<06440>
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
[was] too little
<06996>
<06996>
the burnt offerings
<05930>_,
<05930>_,
and meat offerings
<04503>_,
<04503>_,
and the fat
<02459>
<02459>
of the peace offerings
<08002>_.
<08002>_.
And at that time
<06256>
<06256>
Solomon
<08010>
<08010>
a feast
<02282>_,
<02282>_,

<06951>_,
in of Hamath
<02574>
<02574>
unto the river

seven

<03117>_.
On the eighth
<08066>
<08066>
day
<03117>
<03117>
the people
<05971>
<05971>

<04428>_,
unto their tents
