8And they with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of Yhwh, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite. 9Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to Yhwh: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy. Wherefore David blessed Yhwh before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, Yhwh God of Israel our father, for ever and ever. 11Thine, O Yhwh, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Yhwh, and thou art exalted as head above all. 12Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.
