1 Chronicles 22:6-19

6Then 1he calledH7121 for his sonH1121 SolomonH8010, and commandedH6680 him to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478. 7DavidH1732 saidH559 to SolomonH8010, “2My sonH1121, 3I had intendedH3824 to buildH1129 a houseH1004 for the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 my GodH430. 8But the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to me, sayingH559, ‘4You have shedH8210 muchH7230 bloodH1818 and have 5wagedH6213 greatH1419 warsH4421; you shall not buildH1129 a houseH1004 to My nameH8034, becauseH3588 you have shedH8210 so muchH7227 bloodH1818 on the earthH776 beforeH6440 Me. 9BeholdH2009, a sonH1121 will be bornH3205 to you, whoH1931 shall be a manH376 of restH4496, and 6I will giveH5117 him restH5117 from allH3605 his enemiesH340 on everyH5439 sideH5439; for 7his nameH8034 will be 8SolomonH8010, and I will giveH5414 peaceH7965 and quietH8253 to IsraelH3478 in his daysH3117. 109He shall buildH1129 a houseH1004 for My nameH8034, and he shall be My sonH1121 and I will be his FatherH1; and I will establishH3559 the throneH3678 of his kingdomH4438 overH5921 IsraelH3478 foreverH5704H5769.’ 11NowH6258, my sonH1121, 10the LordH3068 be with you that you may beH6743 successfulH6743, and buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 your GodH430 justH3512 asH3512 He has spokenH1696 concerningH5921 you. 1211OnlyH389 the LordH3068 giveH5414 you discretionH7922 and understandingH998, and putH6680 you inH6680 chargeH6680 of IsraelH3478, so that you may 12keepH8104 the LawH8451 of the LordH3068 your GodH430. 1313ThenH227 you will prosperH6743, ifH518 you areH8104 carefulH8104 to 14followH6213 the statutesH2706 and the ordinancesH4941 whichH834 the LordH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872 concerningH5921 IsraelH3478. 15Be strongH2388 and courageousH553, do not fearH3372 norH408 be dismayedH2865. 14Now beholdH2009, 16with greatH6040 painsH6040 I have preparedH3559 for the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 17a hundredH3967 thousandH505 18talentsH3603 of goldH2091 and a millionH505 talentsH3603 of silverH3701, and 19bronzeH5178 and ironH1270 beyondH369 measureH4948, for 20they are in greatH7230 quantityH7230; I have also preparedH3559 timberH6086 and stoneH68, and you may addH3254 to that. 15Moreover there are manyH7230 workmenH4399H6213 with you, stonecuttersH2672, masonsH2796 of stoneH68, and carpentersH2796H6086; and allH3605 of them are skillfulH2450 in everyH3605 kind of workH4399. 16Of the goldH2091, silverH3701, bronzeH5178, and ironH1270 thereH369 isH369 noH369 limitH4557. AriseH6965 and workH6213, and may 21the LordH3068 be with you.”

1722DavidH1732 also commandedH6680 allH3605 the leadersH8269 of IsraelH3478 to helpH5826 his sonH1121 SolomonH8010, saying, 18“Is the LordH3068 your GodH430 not with you? And 23has He not givenH5117 you restH5117 on everyH5439 sideH5439? For He has handedH5414H3027 overH5414 to me the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, and the landH776 is subduedH3533 beforeH6440 the LordH3068 and beforeH6440 His peopleH5971. 19NowH6258 24setH5414 your heartH3824 and your soulH5315 to seekH1875 the LordH3068 your GodH430; then ariseH6965, and buildH1129 the sanctuaryH4720 of the LordH3068 GodH430, 25so that you may bringH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068 and the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 of GodH430 into the houseH1004 that is to be builtH1129 26for the nameH8034 of the LordH3068.”
