1 Chronicles 29:13-25

13NowH6258 thereforeH6258, our GodH430, we thankH3034 thee, and praiseH1984 thy glorious nameH8034. 14But who am I, and what is my peopleH5971, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we givenH5414 thee. 15For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathersH1 were: our daysH3117 on the earthH776 are as a shadowH6738, and there is no abiding. 16O Jehovah our GodH430, all this store that we have preparedH3559 to buildH1129 thee a houseH1004 for thy holyH6944 nameH8034 cometh of thy handH3027, and is all thine own. 17I knowH3045 also, my GodH430, that thou triest the heartH3824, and hast pleasureH8057 in uprightnessH3476. As for me, in the uprightnessH3476 of my heartH3824 I have willingly offeredH5068 all these thingsH428: and nowH6258 have I seenH7200 with joyH8057 thy peopleH5971, that are present hereH6311, offerH5068 willingly unto thee. 18O Jehovah, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, of IsaacH3327, and of IsraelH3478, our fathersH1, keepH8104 this for everH5769 in the imagination of the thoughtsH4284 of the heartH3824 of thy peopleH5971, and prepareH3559 their heartH3824 unto thee; 19and giveH5414 unto SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 a perfectH8003 heartH3824, to keepH8104 thy commandmentsH4687, thy testimoniesH5715, and thy statutesH2708, and to do all these things, and to buildH1129 the palace, for which I have madeH6213 provision.

20And DavidH1732 saidH559 to all the assemblyH6951, Now blessH1288 Jehovah your GodH430. And all the assemblyH6951 blessedH1288 Jehovah, the GodH430 of their fathersH1, and bowedH7812 downH7812 their heads, and worshipped Jehovah, and the kingH4428. 21And they sacrificedH2076 sacrificesH2077 unto Jehovah, and offeredH5927 burnt-offerings unto Jehovah, on the morrow after that dayH3117, even a thousandH505 bullocks, a thousandH505 ramsH352, and a thousandH505 lambsH3532, with their drink-offerings, and sacrificesH2077 in abundanceH7230 for all IsraelH3478, 22and did eatH398 and drinkH8354 before Jehovah on that dayH3117 with greatH1419 gladnessH8057.

And they made SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732 kingH4427 the secondH8145 time, and anointedH4886 him unto Jehovah to be princeH5057, and ZadokH6659 to be priestH3548. 23Then SolomonH8010 satH3427 on the throneH3678 of Jehovah as kingH4428 instead of DavidH1732 his fatherH1, and prospered; and all IsraelH3478 obeyed him. 24And all the princesH8269, and the mightyH1368 menH1368, and all the sonsH1121 likewise of kingH4428 DavidH1732, submitted themselves unto SolomonH8010 the kingH4428. 25And Jehovah magnifiedH1431 SolomonH8010 exceedingly in the sight of all IsraelH3478, and bestowed upon him such royal majestyH1935 as had not beenH1961 on any kingH4428 before him in IsraelH3478.
