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. 10Wherefore David blessed Yhwh before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, Yhwh God of Israel our father, for ever and ever. Thine, 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. 13Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.
