David Prepares for the Temple

1 Chronicles 29:1-5

And David the king saith to all the assembly, `Solomon my son--the one on whom God hath fixed-- is young and tender, and the work is great, for not for man is the palace, but for Jehovah God;

and with all my power I have prepared for the house of my God, the gold for things of gold, and the silver for those of silver, and the brass for those of brass, the iron for those of iron, and the wood for those of wood, shoham stones, and settings, and stones of painting and of diverse colours, and all kinds of precious stone, and stones of white marble, in abundance.

`And again, because of my delighting in the house of my God, the substance I have--a peculiar treasure of gold and silver--I have given for the house of my God, even over and above all I have prepared for the house of the sanctuary:

three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses,

even gold for things of gold, and silver for those of silver, and for all the work by the hand of artificers; and who is he that is offering willingly to consecrate his hand to-day to Jehovah?'
