³ And all the men of Israel came together to the king at the feast in the seventh month.

² And all the men of Israel came together to King Solomon at the feast, in the month Ethanim, the seventh month.

⁸ So Solomon kept the feast at that time for seven days, and all Israel with him, a very great meeting, for the people had come together from the way into Hamath and from as far as the river of Egypt.

⁹ And on the eighth day they had a holy meeting; the offerings for making the altar holy went on for seven days, and the feast for seven days.

¹⁰ And on the twenty-third day of the seventh month, he sent the people away to their tents, full of joy and glad in their hearts, because of all the good which the Lord had done to David and to Solomon and to Israel his people.

³⁴ Say to the children of Israel, On the fifteenth day of this seventh month let the feast of tents be kept to the Lord for seven days.

³⁵ On the first day there will be a holy meeting: do no field-work.

³⁶ Every day for seven days give an offering made by fire to the Lord; and on the eighth day there is to be a holy meeting, when you are to give an offering made by fire to the Lord; this is a special holy day: you may do no field-work on that day.
