2 They all assembled during the Festival of Shelters in the seventh month, in the month of Ethanim.
3 When all the leaders had gathered, the priests lifted the Covenant Box
4 and carried it to the Temple. The Levites and the priests also moved the Tent of the Lord's presence and all its equipment to the Temple.
5 King Solomon and all the people of Israel assembled in front of the Covenant Box and sacrificed a large number of sheep and cattle — too many to count.
6 Then the priests carried the Covenant Box into the Temple and put it in the Most Holy Place, beneath the winged creatures.
7 Their outstretched wings covered the box and the poles it was carried by.
8 The ends of the poles could be seen by anyone standing directly in front of the Most Holy Place, but from nowhere else. (The poles are still there today.)
