NOW when Shalomah had made an end of praying, the fire came down from heaven, and consumed the ascending smoke offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of Yahuah filled the house.
And the priests could not enter into the house of Yahuah, because the glory of Yahuah had filled Yahuah's house.
And when all the children of Yashar'el saw how the fire came down, and the glory of Yahuah upon the house, they bowed themselves with their faces to the ground upon the pavement, and worshipped, and praised Yahuah, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endures forever.
Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices before Yahuah.
And King Shalomah offered a sacrifice of twenty and two thousand oxen, and a hundred and twenty thousand sheep: so the king and all the people dedicated the house of Elohiym.
And the priests waited on their offices: the Leviyiym also with instruments of music of Yahuah, which Daviyd the king had made to praise Yahuah, because his mercy endures forever, when Daviyd praised by their ministry; and the priests sounded trumpets before them, and all Yashar'el stood.
Moreover Shalomah hallowed the middle of the court that was before the house of Yahuah: for there he offered ascending smoke offerings, and את the fat of the peace offerings, because the brasen altar which Shalomah had made was not able to receive the ascending smoke offerings, and the oblations, and the fat.
Also at the same time Shalomah kept the feast seven days, and all Yashar'el with him, a very great assembly, from the entering in of Chamath unto the river of Mitsrayim.
And in the eighth day they made a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodness that Yahuah had showed unto Daviyd, and to Shalomah, and to Yashar'el his people.
Thus Shalomah finished the house of Yahuah, and the king's house: and all that came into Shalomah's heart to make in the house of Yahuah, and in his own house, he prosperously effected.
And Yahuah appeared to El-Shalomah by night, and said unto him, I have heard your prayer, and have chosen this place to myself for a house of sacrifice.
If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people;
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Now my eyes shall be open, and my ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place.
For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there forever: and my eyes and my heart shall be there perpetually.
And as for you, if you will walk before me, as Daviyd your father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded you, and shall guard my statutes and my judgments;
Then will I stablish את the throne of your kingdom, according as I have covenanted with Daviyd your father, saying, There shall not fail you a man to be ruler in Yashar'el.
But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other elohiym, and worship them;
Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations.
And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to everyone that passes by it; so that he shall say, Why has Yahuah done thus unto this land, and unto this house?
And it shall be answered, Because they forsook Yahuah Elohai of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Mitsrayim, and laid hold on other elohiym, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore has he brought את all this evil upon them.
