The children of Israel who were present at Jerusalem kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests praised the LORD day by day, singing with loud instruments to the LORD.

On the eighth day they held a solemn assembly: for they kept the dedication of the altar seven days, and the feast seven days.
