1 Chronicles 29:13-25

13Now therefore, our GodH430, we thankH3034 thee, and praiseH1984 thy gloriousH8597 nameH8034. 14But who am I, and what is my peopleH5971, that we should beH6113 ableH3581 to offer so willinglyH5068 after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine ownH3027 have we givenH5414 thee.12 15For we are strangersH1616 beforeH6440 thee, and sojournersH8453, as were all our fathersH1: our daysH3117 on the earthH776 are as a shadowH6738, and there is none abidingH4723.3 16O YhwhH3068 our GodH430, all this storeH1995 that we have preparedH3559 to buildH1129 thee an houseH1004 for thine holyH6944 nameH8034 cometh of thine handH3027, and is all thine own. 17I knowH3045 also, my GodH430, that thou triestH974 the heartH3824, and hast pleasureH7521 in uprightnessH3476. As for me, in the uprightnessH4339 of mine heartH3824 I have willingly offeredH5068 all these things: and now have I seenH7200 with joyH8057 thy peopleH5971, which are presentH4672 here, to offer willinglyH5068 unto thee.4 18O YhwhH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and of IsraelH3478, our fathersH1, keepH8104 this for everH5769 in the imaginationH3336 of the thoughtsH4284 of the heartH3824 of thy peopleH5971, and prepareH3559 their heartH3824 unto thee:5 19And giveH5414 unto SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 a perfectH8003 heartH3824, to keepH8104 thy commandmentsH4687, thy testimoniesH5715, and thy statutesH2706, and to doH6213 all these things, and to buildH1129 the palaceH1002, for the which I have made provisionH3559.

20And DavidH1732 saidH559 to all the congregationH6951, Now blessH1288 YhwhH3068 your GodH430. And all the congregationH6951 blessedH1288 YhwhH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, and bowed down their headsH6915, and worshippedH7812 YhwhH3068, and the kingH4428. 21And they sacrificedH2076 sacrificesH2077 unto YhwhH3068, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto YhwhH3068, on the morrowH4283 after that dayH3117, even a thousandH505 bullocksH6499, a thousandH505 ramsH352, and a thousandH505 lambsH3532, with their drink offeringsH5262, and sacrificesH2077 in abundanceH7230 for all IsraelH3478: 22And did eatH398 and drinkH8354 beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 on that dayH3117 with greatH1419 gladnessH8057. And they made SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732 kingH4427 the second timeH8145, and anointedH4886 him unto YhwhH3068 to be the chief governorH5057, and ZadokH6659 to be priestH3548. 23Then SolomonH8010 sat onH3427 the throneH3678 of YhwhH3068 as kingH4428 instead of DavidH1732 his fatherH1, and prosperedH6743; and all IsraelH3478 obeyedH8085 him. 24And all the princesH8269, and the mighty menH1368, and all the sonsH1121 likewise of kingH4428 DavidH1732, submitted themselvesH8478H3027H5414 unto SolomonH8010 the kingH4428.6 25And YhwhH3068 magnifiedH1431 SolomonH8010 exceedinglyH4605 in the sightH5869 of all IsraelH3478, and bestowedH5414 upon him such royalH4438 majestyH1935 as had not been on any kingH4428 beforeH6440 him in IsraelH3478.
