1 Chronicles 29:6-20

6Then the princesH8269 of the fathers’H1 houses, and the princesH8269 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the captainsH8269 of thousandsH505 and of hundredsH3967, with the rulersH8269 over the king’sH4428 workH4399, offeredH5068 willinglyH5068;

7and they gaveH5414 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430 of goldH2091 fiveH2568 thousandH505 talentsH3603 and tenH6235 thousandH505 daricsH150, and of silverH3701 tenH6235 thousandH505 talentsH3603, and of brassH5178 eighteen thousandH505 talentsH3603, and of ironH1270 a hundredH3967 thousandH505 talentsH3603.

8And they with whom preciousH854 stonesH68 were foundH4672 gaveH5414 them to the treasureH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, underH5921 the handH3027 of JehielH3171 the GershoniteH1649.

9Then the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055, for that they offeredH5068 willinglyH5068, becauseH3588 with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 they offeredH5068 willinglyH5068 to the LORDH3068: and DavidH1732 the kingH4428 also rejoicedH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057.

10Wherefore DavidH1732 blessedH1288 the LORDH3068 beforeH5869 allH3605 the congregationH6951: and DavidH1732 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be thou, O LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 our fatherH1, for everH5769 and everH5769.

11Thine, O LORDH3068, is the greatnessH1420, and the powerH1369, and the gloryH8597, and the victoryH5331, and the majestyH1935: for allH3605 that is in the heavenH8064 and in the earthH776 is thine; thine is the kingdomH4467, O LORDH3068, and thou art exalted as headH7218 above allH3605.

12BothH3605 richesH6239 and honour come of thee, and thou rulest over allH3605; and in thine handH3027 is powerH3027 and might; and in thine handH3027 it is to makeH1431 greatH1431, and to give strengthH1369 unto allH3605.

13NowH6258 therefore, our GodH430, weH587 thankH3034 thee, and praiseH1984 thy gloriousH8597 nameH8034.

14But who am I, and whatH4310 is my peopleH5971, that weH3588 should be ableH3027 to offerH5414 soH4480 willinglyH5068 afterH4480 this sort? for allH3605 things come of thee, and of thine own have weH3588 givenH5414 thee.

15For weH587 are strangersH1616 beforeH6440 thee, and sojournersH8453, as allH3605 our fathersH1 were: our daysH3117 on the earthH776 are as a shadowH6738, and there is noH369 abiding.

16O LORDH3068 our GodH430, allH3605 this store that weH834 have preparedH3559 to buildH1129 thee an houseH1004 for thine holyH6944 nameH8034 cometh of thine handH3027, and is allH3605 thine own.

17I knowH3045 also, my GodH430, that thou triest the heartH3824, and hast pleasureH8057 in uprightnessH3476, As for meH7200, in the uprightnessH3476 of mine heartH3824 I have willinglyH5068 offeredH5068 allH3605 theseH428 things: and nowH6258 have I seenH7200 with joyH8057 thy peopleH5971, whichH428 are presentH4672 hereH6311, to offerH5068 willinglyH5068 unto thee.

18O LORDH3068, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, of IsaacH3327, and of IsraelH3478, our fathersH1, keepH8104 this for everH5769 in the imagination of the thoughtsH4284 of the heartH3824 of thy peopleH5971; and prepareH3559 their heartH3824 unto thee:

19and giveH5414 unto SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 a perfectH8003 heartH3824, to keepH8104 thy commandmentsH4687, thy testimoniesH5715, and thy statutesH2708, and to doH6213 allH3605 theseH3605 things, and to buildH1129 the palace, for the whichH834 I have madeH6213 provisionH3559.

20And DavidH1732 saidH559 to allH3605 the congregationH6951, NowH4994 blessH1288 the LORDH3068 your GodH430. And allH3605 the congregationH6951 blessedH1288 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of their fathersH1, and bowedH7812 downH7812 their heads, and worshipped the LORDH3068, and the kingH4428.
