1 Chronicles 22:6-16

6Then he calledH7121 for SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, and charged him to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 7And DavidH1732 saidH559 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, As for me, it was in my heartH3824 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 unto the nameH8034 of Jehovah my GodH430. 8But the wordH1697 of Jehovah came to me, sayingH559, Thou hast shedH8210 bloodH1818 abundantly, and hast madeH6213 greatH1419 warsH4421: thou shalt not buildH1129 a houseH1004 unto my nameH8034, because thou hast shedH8210 much bloodH1818 upon the earthH776 in my sight. 9Behold, a sonH1121 shall beH1961 bornH3205 to thee, who shall beH1961 a manH376 of restH5117; and I will giveH5414 him restH5117 from all his enemiesH341 roundH5439 about; for his nameH8034 shall beH1961 SolomonH8010, and I will giveH5414 peaceH7965 and quietness unto IsraelH3478 in his daysH3117. 10He shall buildH1129 a houseH1004 for my nameH8034; and he shall beH1961 my sonH1121, and I will beH1961 his fatherH1; and I will establishH3559 the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4438 over IsraelH3478 for everH5769. 11NowH6258, my sonH1121, Jehovah beH1961 with thee; and prosperH6743 thou, and buildH1129 the houseH1004 of Jehovah thy GodH430, as he hath spokenH1696 concerning thee. 12OnlyH389 Jehovah giveH5414 thee discretion and understandingH998, and giveH5414 thee charge concerning IsraelH3478; that so thou mayest keepH8104 the lawH8451 of Jehovah thy GodH430. 13ThenH227 shalt thou prosperH6743, if thou observeH8104 to do the statutesH2706 and the ordinancesH4941 which Jehovah charged MosesH4872 with concerning IsraelH3478: be strongH2388, and of good courage; fearH3372 not, neither be dismayedH2865. 14Now, behold, in my affliction I have preparedH3559 for the houseH1004 of Jehovah a hundredH3967 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of goldH2091, and a thousandH505 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and of brass and ironH1270 without weightH4948; for it is in abundanceH7230: timber also and stoneH68 have I preparedH3559; and thou mayest addH3254 thereto. 15Moreover there are workmen with thee in abundanceH7230, hewers and workers of stoneH68 and timber, and all men that are skilful in every manner of workH4399: 16of the goldH2091, the silverH3701, and the brass, and the ironH1270, there is no numberH4557. AriseH6965 and beH1961 doing, and Jehovah beH1961 with thee.
