6Then 1the rulersH8269 of the fathers’H1 households, and the princesH8269 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the commandersH8269 of thousandsH505 and of hundredsH3967, with 2the overseersH8269 over the king’sH4428 workH4399, offeredH5068 willinglyH5068; 7and for the serviceH5656 for the houseH1004 of GodH430 they gaveH5414 5,000H2568H505 talentsH3603 and 10,000H6235H505 3daricsH150 of goldH2091, and 10,000H6235H505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and 18,000H8083H7239H505 talentsH3603 of brassH5178, and 100,000H3967H505 talentsH3603 of ironH1270. 84Whoever possessedH4672 precious stonesH68 gaveH5414 them to the treasuryH214 of the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, 5in careH3027 of 6JehielH3171 the GershoniteH1649. 9Then the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055 becauseH5921 they had offeredH5068 so willinglyH5068, for they madeH5068 their offeringH5068 to the LordH3068 7with a wholeH8003 heartH3820, and KingH4428 DavidH1732 alsoH1571 rejoicedH8055 greatlyH1419.

10So DavidH1732 blessedH1288 the LordH3068 in the sightH5869 of allH3605 the assemblyH6951; and DavidH1732 saidH559, “BlessedH1288 are You, O LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 our fatherH1, foreverH5769 and everH5769. 118Yours, O LordH3068, is the greatnessH1420 and the powerH1369 and the gloryH8597 and the victoryH5331 and the majestyH1935, indeedH3588 everythingH3605 that is in the heavensH8064 and the earthH776; Yours is the dominionH4467, O LordH3068, and You exaltH5375 Yourself as headH7218 over allH3605. 129Both richesH6239 and honorH3519 come from You, and You ruleH4910 over allH3605, and 10in Your handH3027 is powerH3581 and mightH1369; and it lies in Your handH3027 to makeH1431 greatH1431 and to strengthenH2388 everyoneH3605. 13NowH6258 therefore, our GodH430, we thankH3034 You, and praiseH1984 Your gloriousH8597 nameH8034.

14“But whoH4310 am I and whoH4310 are my peopleH5971 that we should 11be ableH6113H3581 to offerH5068 as generously as thisH2088? For allH3605 thingsH3605 come from You, and from Your handH3027 we have givenH5414 You. 15For 12we are sojournersH1616 beforeH6440 You, and tenantsH8453, as allH3605 our fathersH1 were; 13our daysH3117 on the earthH776 are like a shadowH6738, and thereH369 is noH369 hopeH4723. 16O LordH3068 our GodH430, allH3605 thisH2088 abundanceH1995 that we have providedH3559 to buildH1129 You a houseH1004 for Your holyH6944 nameH8034, it is from Your handH3027, and allH3605 is Yours. 17Since I knowH3045, O my GodH430, that 14You tryH974 the heartH3824 and 15delightH7521 in uprightnessH4339, I, in the integrityH3476 of my heartH3824, have willinglyH5068 offeredH5068 allH3605 theseH428 things; so nowH6258 with joyH8057 I have seenH7200 Your peopleH5971, who are presentH4672 hereH6311, makeH5068 their offeringsH5068 willinglyH5068 to You. 18O LordH3068, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327 and IsraelH3478, our fathersH1, preserveH8104 thisH2088 foreverH5769 in the 16intentionsH3336H4284 of the heartH3824 of Your peopleH5971, and directH3559 their heartH3824 to You; 19and 17giveH5414 to my sonH1121 SolomonH8010 a perfectH8003 heartH3824 to keepH8104 Your commandmentsH4687, Your testimoniesH5715 and Your statutesH2706, and to doH6213 them allH3605, and 18to buildH1129 the 19templeH1002, for whichH834 I have madeH3559 provisionH3559.”

20Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to allH3605 the assemblyH6951, “NowH4994 blessH1288 the LordH3068 your GodH430.” And 20allH3605 the assemblyH6951 blessedH1288 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of their fathersH1, and 21bowedH6915 lowH6915 and didH7812 homageH7812 to the LordH3068 and to the kingH4428.
