Context of 1 Chronicles 28:14

12David showed Solomon the ideas that God had put in his mind. He gave him the plans for the yards around the Lord's temple and the rooms around the yards. There were also plans of the rooms to store the valuable things and the gifts that people had offered to God. 13David gave Solomon the rules for the work of the priests and Levites. He gave him a list of the different kinds of work that each group must do in the Lord's temple. He also gave him a list of the special things that were used to serve the Lord in the temple. He told Solomon the weight of gold and the weight of silver that he must use to make some of those special things. 15That included the weight of gold for the lampstands and for their lamps. It also included the weight of silver for the silver lampstands and for their lamps. Each lampstand was different because they would use it for a different purpose. 16It included the weight of gold to make the special table where the priests would put the special bread. And it included the weight of silver to make the silver tables.
