1CH-29:1 Furthermore David the king said unto all the
congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, [is
yet] young and tender, and the work [is] great: for the palace
[is] not for man, but for the LORD God.
1CH-29:2 Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of
my God the gold for [things to be made] of gold, and the silver
for [things] of silver, and the brass for [things] of brass, the
iron for [things] of iron, and wood for [things] of wood; onyx
stones, and [stones] to be set, glistering stones, and of divers
colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in
abundance.
1CH-29:3 Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house
of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver,
[which] I have given to the house of my God, over and above all
that I have prepared for the holy house,
1CH-29:4 [Even] three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of
Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay
the walls of the houses [withal]:
1CH-29:5 The gold for [things] of gold, and the silver for
[things] of silver, and for all manner of work [to be made] by
the hands of artificers. And who [then] is willing to consecrate
his service this day unto the LORD?
1CH-29:6 Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes
of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with
the rulers of the king's work, offered willingly,
1CH-29:7 And gave for the service of the house of God of gold
five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten
thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and
one hundred thousand talents of iron.
1CH-29:8 And they with whom [precious] stones were found gave
[them] to the treasure of the house of the LORD, by the hand of
Jehiel the Gershonite.
1CH-29:9 Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered
willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to
the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.
1CH-29:10 Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the
congregation: and David said, Blessed [be] thou, LORD God of
Israel our father, for ever and ever.
1CH-29:11 Thine, O LORD, [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 LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all.
1CH-29:12 Both 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.
1CH-29:13 Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy
glorious name.
1CH-29:14 But who [am] I, and what [is] my people, that we
should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all
things [come] of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.
1CH-29:15 For we [are] strangers before thee, and sojourners, as
[were] all our fathers: our days on the earth [are] as a shadow,
and [there is] none abiding.
1CH-29:16 O LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared
to build thee an house for thine holy name [cometh] of thine
hand, and [is] all thine own.
1CH-29:17 I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and
hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of
mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now
have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to
offer willingly unto thee.
1CH-29:18 O LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our
fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts
of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee:
1CH-29:19 And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep
thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do
all [these things], and to build the palace, [for] the which I
have made provision.
