1 Chronicles 29:6-20

6And the chiefH8269 fathersH1 and princesH8269 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the captains of thousandsH505 and of hundredsH3967, and the comptrollers of the king's businessH4399, offeredH5068 willingly.

7And they gaveH5414 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of 1GodH430 fiveH2568 thousandH505 talentsH3603 and tenH6235 thousandH505 daricsH150 of goldH2091, and tenH6235 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and eighteen thousandH505 talentsH3603 of brass, and oneH3967 hundredH3967 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of ironH1270.

8And they with whom stonesH68 were foundH4672 gaveH5414 [them] to the treasureH214 of the houseH1004 of Jehovah, into the handH3027 of JehielH3171 the GershoniteH1649.

9And the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055 because they offeredH5068 willingly, for with perfectH8003 heartH3820 they offeredH5068 willingly to Jehovah; and DavidH1732 the kingH4428 alsoH1571 rejoicedH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057.

10And DavidH1732 blessedH1288 Jehovah in the sight of all the congregation; and DavidH1732 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be thou, Jehovah, the 2GodH430 of our fatherH1 IsraelH3478, for everH5769 and everH5769.

11Thine, Jehovah, is the greatnessH1420, and the power, and the gloryH8597, and the splendour, and the majestyH1935; for all that is in the heavensH8064 and on the earthH776 is thine: thine, Jehovah, is the kingdomH4467, and thou art exalted as HeadH7218 above all;

12and richesH6239 and gloryH3519 are of thee, and thou rulest over everythingH3605; and in thy handH3027 is power and might; and in thy handH3027 it is to makeH1431 all greatH1431 and strongH2388.

13And nowH6258, our 3GodH430, we thankH3034 thee, and praiseH1984 thy glorious nameH8034.

14But who am I, and what is my peopleH5971, that we should be able to offer willingly after this manner? for all is of thee, and of that which is from thy handH3027 have we givenH5414 thee.

15For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathersH1: our daysH3117 on the earthH776 are as a shadowH6738, and there is no hope [of life].

16Jehovah our 4GodH430, all this store that we have preparedH3559 to buildH1129 thee a houseH1004 to thy holyH6944 nameH8034, is of thy handH3027, and is all thine own.

17And I knowH3045, my 5GodH430, that thou triest the heartH3824, and hast pleasureH8057 in uprightnessH3476. In the uprightnessH3476 of my heartH3824 have I willingly offeredH5068 all these thingsH428; and nowH6258 have I seenH7200 with joyH8057 thy peopleH5971, which are present hereH6311, offerH5068 willingly to thee.

18Jehovah, 6GodH430 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 directH3559 their heartsH3824 to thee!

19And giveH5414 to SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 a perfectH8003 heartH3824, to keepH8104 thy commandmentsH4687, thy testimoniesH5715, and thy statutesH2708, and to do all, and to buildH1129 the palace, for which I have madeH6213 provision.

20And DavidH1732 saidH559 to all the congregation, BlessH1288 now Jehovah your 7GodH430. And all the congregation blessedH1288 Jehovah the 8GodH430 of their fathersH1, and bowedH7812 downH7812 their heads, and did homage to Jehovah and the kingH4428.
