1 Chronicles 29:1-9
1And DavidH1732 the kingH4428 saidH559 unto all the assemblyH6951, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, whom alone GodH430 hath chosenH977, is yet youngH5288 and tenderH7390, and the workH4399 is greatH1419; for the palace is not for manH120, but for Jehovah GodH430. 2Now I have preparedH3559 with all my might for the houseH1004 of my GodH430 the goldH2091 for the things of goldH2091, and the silverH3701 for the things of silverH3701, and the brass for the things of brass, the ironH1270 for the things of ironH1270, and woodH6086 for the things of woodH6086; onyxH7718 stonesH68, and stonesH68 to be set, stonesH68 for inlaid work, and of divers colors, and all manner of preciousH3368 stonesH68, and marble stonesH68 in abundanceH7230. 3Moreover also, because I have setH5414 my affection on the houseH1004 of my GodH430, seeing that I have a treasureH5459 of mine own of goldH2091 and silverH3701, I giveH5414 it unto the houseH1004 of my GodH430, over and above all that I have preparedH3559 for the holyH6944 houseH1004, 4even threeH7969 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of goldH2091, of the goldH2091 of OphirH211, and sevenH7651 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of refinedH2212 silverH3701, wherewith to overlay the wallsH7023 of the housesH1004; 5of goldH2091 for the things of goldH2091, and of silverH3701 for the things of silverH3701, and for all manner of workH4399 to be made by the handsH3027 of artificers. Who then offereth willingly to consecrate himself this dayH3117 unto Jehovah?
6Then the princesH8269 of the fathers’H1houses, and the princesH8269 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the captains of thousandsH505 and of hundredsH3967, with the rulers over the king’sH4428 workH4399, offeredH5068 willingly; 7and they gaveH5414 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430 of goldH2091 fiveH2568 thousandH505 talentsH3603 and tenH6235 thousandH505 daricsH150, and of silverH3701 tenH6235 thousandH505 talentsH3603, and of brass eighteen thousandH505 talentsH3603, and of ironH1270 a hundredH3967 thousandH505 talentsH3603. 8And they with whom precious stonesH68 were foundH4672 gaveH5414 them to the treasureH214 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, under the handH3027 of JehielH3171 the GershoniteH1649. 9Then the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055, for that they offeredH5068 willingly, because with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 they offeredH5068 willingly to Jehovah: and DavidH1732 the kingH4428 alsoH1571 rejoicedH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057.
