...the glory of Yahweh filled the temple. The priests could not enter the temple of Yahweh because the glory of Yahweh filled it. When all the Israelites saw the fire coming down and the glory of Yahweh above the temple, they knelt on the pavement with their faces to the ground, and they worshiped and gave thanks to Yahweh, saying,
"He is good;
his love endures forever."
So Solomon observed the festival at that time for seven days, and all Israel with him—a vast assembly, people from Lebo Hamath to the Wadi of Egypt. On the eighth day they held an assembly, for they had celebrated the dedication of the altar for seven days and the festival for seven days more. On the twenty-third day of the seventh month he sent the people to their homes, joyful and glad in heart for the good things Yahweh had done for David and Solomon and for his people Israel.
2 Chronicles 7:1b-3, 8-10 NIV
[Yahweh, help us to see the good things you do all around us; may our hearts overflow with gladness]
