Salomo vigslet plass midt i forgården foran Herrens hus, for der ofret han brennofferet og fettstykkene på fredsofferet, for bronsalteret som Salomo hadde laget, kunne ikke romme brennofferet, grødeofferet og fettstykkene.
Solomon also consecrated the middle part of the courtyard in front of the Temple of the LORD, and there he offered burnt offerings, the fat of the fellowship offerings, because the bronze altar he had made could not hold the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat portions.
