1 Chronicles 28:9-20
9And thou, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, knowH3045 thou the GodH430 of thy fatherH1, and serveH5647 him with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 and with a willing mind; for Jehovah searcheth all heartsH3820, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughtsH4284. If thou seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of thee; but if thou forsakeH5800 him, he will cast thee off for everH5703. 10TakeH2388 heed nowH6258; for Jehovah hath chosenH977 thee to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for the sanctuaryH4720: be strongH2388, and do it.
11Then DavidH1732 gaveH5414 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 the patternH8403 of the porchH197of the temple, and of the housesH1004 thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upperH5944 roomsH2315 thereof, and of the innerH6442 chambersH2315 thereof, and of the place of the mercy-seat; 12and the patternH8403 of all that he had by the SpiritH7307, for the courts of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and for all the chambers roundH5439 about, for the treasuriesH214 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, and for the treasuriesH214 of the dedicated thingsH6944; 13also for the courses of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and for all the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and for all the vesselsH3627 of serviceH5656 in the houseH1004 of Jehovah; 14of goldH2091 by weightH4948 for the vesselsH3627 of goldH2091, for all vesselsH3627 of every kind of serviceH5656; of silverH3701 for all the vesselsH3627 of silverH3701 by weightH4948, for all vesselsH3627 of every kind of serviceH5656; 15by weightH4948 also for the candlesticks of goldH2091, and for the lampsH5216 thereof, of goldH2091, by weightH4948 for every candlestick and for the lampsH5216 thereof; and for the candlesticks of silverH3701, silverH3701 by weightH4948 for every candlestick and for the lampsH5216 thereof, according to the use of every candlestick; 16and the goldH2091 by weightH4948 for the tablesH7979 of showbread, for every tableH7979; and silverH3701 for the tablesH7979 of silverH3701; 17and the flesh-hooks, and the basins, and the cups, of pureH2889 goldH2091; and for the golden bowlsH4219 by weightH4948 for every bowlH4219; and for the silverH3701 bowlsH4219 by weightH4948 for every bowlH4219; 18and for the altarH4196 of incenseH7004 refinedH2212 goldH2091 by weightH4948; and goldH2091 for the patternH8403 of the chariotH4818, even the cherubimH3742, that spreadH6566 out their wings, and covered the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah. 19All this, said David, have I been made to understand in writing from the handH3027 of Jehovah, even all the works of this patternH8403.
20And DavidH1732 saidH559 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, Be strongH2388 and of good courage, and do it: fearH3372 not, nor be dismayedH2865; for Jehovah GodH430, even my GodH430, is with thee; he will not failH3615 thee, nor forsakeH5800 thee, until all the workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah be finishedH3615.
