1 Kings 8:65-66
International Standard Version
65 So Solomon observed the Festival of Tents[a] at that time, as did all of Israel with him. A large assembly came up from as far away as Lebo-hamath and the Wadi[b] of Egypt to appear in the presence of the Lord our God, not just for seven days, but for seven days after that, a total of fourteen days. 66 The following[c] day, Solomon[d] sent the people away as they blessed the king. Then they went back to their tents, rejoicing and glad for all the good things that the Lord had done for his servant David and to his people Israel.
