65 And Solomon made at that time a feast and all Israel with him, a very great Congregation, even from the entering in of [a]Hamath unto the river of Egypt, before the Lord our God, [b]seven days and seven days, even fourteen days.
66 And the eighth day he sent the people away: and they [c]thanked the King, and went unto their tents joyous, and with glad heart, because of all the goodness that the Lord had done for David his servant, and for Israel his people.
