Chapter 22

1 Then David1732 said,559 This2088 is the house1004 of the LORD3068 God,430 and this2088 is the altar4196 of the burnt offering5930 for Israel.3478

2 And David1732 commanded559 to gather together3664 853 the strangers1616 that834 were in the land776 of Israel;3478 and he set5975 masons2672 to hew2672 wrought1496 stones68 to build1129 the house1004 of God.430

3 And David1732 prepared3559 iron1270 in abundance7230 for the nails4548 for the doors1817 of the gates,8179 and for the joinings;4226 and brass5178 in abundance7230 without369 weight;4948

4 Also cedar730 trees6086 in abundance:369 4557 for3588 the Zidonians6722 and they of Tyre6876 brought935 much7230 cedar730 wood6086 to David.1732

5 And David1732 said,559 Solomon8010 my son1121 is young5288 and tender,7390 and the house1004 that is to be built1129 for the LORD3068 must be exceeding4605 magnifical,1431 of fame8034 and of glory8597 throughout all3605 countries:776 I will therefore now4994 make preparation3559 for it. So David1732 prepared3559 abundantly7230 before6440 his death.4194

6 Then he called7121 for Solomon8010 his son,1121 and charged6680 him to build1129 a house1004 for the LORD3068 God430 of Israel.3478

7 And David1732 said559 to Solomon,8010 My son,1121 as for me,589 it was1961 in5973 my mind3824 to build1129 a house1004 unto the name8034 of the LORD3068 my God: 430

8 But the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 to5921 me, saying,559 Thou hast shed8210 blood1818 abundantly,7230 and hast made6213 great1419 wars:4421 thou shalt not3808 build1129 a house1004 unto my name,8034 because3588 thou hast shed8210 much7227 blood1818 upon the earth776 in my sight.6440

9 Behold,2009 a son1121 shall be born3205 to thee, who1931 shall be1961 a man376 of rest;4496 and I will give him rest5117 from all4480 3605 his enemies341 round about:4480 5439 for3588 his name8034 shall be1961 Solomon,8010 and I will give5414 peace7965 and quietness8253 unto5921 Israel3478 in his days.3117

10 He1931 shall build1129 a house1004 for my name;8034 and he1931 shall be1961 my son,1121 and I589 will be his father;1 and I will establish3559 the throne3678 of his kingdom4438 over5921 Israel3478 forever.5704 5769

11 Now,6258 my son,1121 the LORD3068 be1961 with5973 thee; and prosper6743 thou, and build1129 the house1004 of the LORD3068 thy God,430 as834 he hath said1696 of5921 thee.

12 Only389 the LORD3068 give5414 thee wisdom7922 and understanding,998 and give thee charge6680 concerning5921 Israel,3478 that thou mayest keep8104 853 the law8451 of the LORD3068 thy God.430

13 Then227 shalt thou prosper,6743 if518 thou takest heed8104 to fulfill6213 853 the statutes2706 and judgments4941 which834 the LORD3068 charged6680 853 Moses4872 with concerning5921 Israel:3478 be strong,2388 and of good courage;553 dread3372 not,408 nor408 be dismayed.2865

14 Now, behold,2009 in my trouble6040 I have prepared3559 for the house1004 of the LORD3068 a hundred3967 thousand505 talents3603 of gold,2091 and a thousand505 thousand505 talents3603 of silver;3701 and of brass5178 and iron1270 without369 weight;4948 for3588 it is1961 in abundance:7230 timber6086 also and stone68 have I prepared;3559 and thou mayest add3254 thereto.5921

15 Moreover there are workmen6213 4399 with5973 thee in abundance,7230 hewers2672 and workers2796 of stone68 and timber,6086 and all manner3605 of cunning men2450 for every manner3605 of work.4399

16 Of the gold,2091 the silver,3701 and the brass,5178 and the iron,1270 there is no369 number.4557 Arise6965 therefore, and be doing,6213 and the LORD3068 be1961 with5973 thee.

17 David1732 also commanded6680 all3605 the princes8269 of Israel3478 to help5826 Solomon8010 his son,1121 saying,

18 Is not3808 the LORD3068 your God430 with5973 you? and hath he not given you rest5117 on every side?4480 5439 for3588 he hath given5414 853 the inhabitants3427 of the land776 into mine hand;3027 and the land776 is subdued3533 before6440 the LORD,3068 and before6440 his people.5971

19 Now6258 set5414 your heart3824 and your soul5315 to seek1875 the LORD3068 your God;430 arise6965 therefore, and build1129 ye853 the sanctuary4720 of the LORD3068 God,430 to bring935 853 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD,3068 and the holy6944 vessels3627 of God,430 into the house1004 that is to be built1129 to the name8034 of the LORD.3068

Chapter 22

1 THEN David said, This is the house of the LORD God and this is the altar of the burnt offerings for Israel.

2 And David commanded to gather together all the proselytes who were in the land of Israel, to make some of them stonecutters to hew stones for the house of the LORD;

3 And to make some of them blacksmiths to forge iron to make axes and hatchets for hewing stones. And David prepared bars of iron, and brass in abundance without weight;

4 Also cedar trees in abundance; for the Tyrians and the Sidonians brought much cedar wood to David.

5 And David said, Solomon my son is still a small boy, and concerning him it is said in the book that he will build a house to the LORD which will be exceedingly magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries; I will therefore prepare everything necessary for it while I am living. So David prepared everything that was needed for the house, and lacked nothing.

6 Then he called for Solomon his son and said to him,

7 You shall build a house for the LORD God of Israel;

8 For he has sent to me by a prophet, saying, You have shed blood abundantly and have made great wars; you shall not build a house to my name because you have shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.

9 Behold. a son shall be born to you who shall be a man of peace; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about; for his name shall be Solomon, and there shall be peace and quietness to Israel in his days.

10 He shall build a house for my name; and he shall be to me like a son, and I will be to him like a father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

11 Now, my son, the LORD be with you, so that you may prosper, and build the house of the LORD your God, as he has said to me.

12 Only may the LORD give you wisdom and understanding, and give you charge concerning Israel, that you may keep the law of the LORD your God, just as he has commanded you.

13 Then you shall prosper if you take heed to observe these commandments and the statutes and judgments just as the LORD charged Moses to teach Israel, then you will be strong and of good courage; fear not, nor be dismayed.

14 Now, behold, I have prepared for you everything necessary for the building of the house of the LORD. I have prepared for you a hundred thousand talents of gold, a million talents of silver; and brass and iron without weight; no man knows its weight, for it is in abundance; timber also and stones I have prepared; and you may add thereto.

15 Moreover there are workers with you in abundance, stonecutters, masons, and carpenters,

16 Cunning men for every manner of work; of gold, silver, brass, and iron in abundance. Be strong therefore and be doing, and the LORD will help you.

17 David also commanded all the elders of Israel, saying, You must help Solomon my son.

18 For behold, the LORD your God is with you; and he will help you and relieve you on every side. Behold he has delivered all the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and the land is subdued before the LORD and before his people.

19 Now set your heart and your soul to pray before the LORD your God; arise therefore, and build the sanctuary of the LORD God, and bring there the ark in which is the covenant of the LORD our God, and the holy vessels of the LORD our God; and build the house because of his great name by which we are known.

4 Also cedar trees in abundance; for the Tyrians and the Sidonians brought much cedar wood to David.

5 And David1732 said,559 Solomon8010 my son1121 is young5288 and tender,7390 and the house1004 that is to be built1129 for the LORD3068 must be exceeding4605 magnifical,1431 of fame8034 and of glory8597 throughout all3605 countries:776 I will therefore now4994 make preparation3559 for it.

7 You shall build a house for the LORD God of Israel;

8 But the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 to5921 me, saying,559 Thou hast shed8210 blood1818 abundantly,7230 and hast made6213 great1419 wars:4421 thou shalt not3808 build1129 a house1004 unto my name,8034 because3588 thou hast shed8210 much7227 blood1818 upon the earth776 in my sight.6440

8 For he has sent to me by a prophet, saying, You have shed blood abundantly and have made great wars; you shall not build a house to my name because you have shed much blood upon the earth in my sight.

9 Behold,2009 a son1121 shall be born3205 to thee, who1931 shall be1961 a man376 of rest;4496 and I will give him rest5117 from all4480 3605 his enemies341 round about:4480 5439 for3588 his name8034 shall be1961 Solomon,8010 and I will give5414 peace7965 and quietness8253 unto5921 Israel3478 in his days.3117

9 Behold. a son shall be born to you who shall be a man of peace; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about; for his name shall be Solomon, and there shall be peace and quietness to Israel in his days.

10 He1931 shall build1129 a house1004 for my name;8034 and he1931 shall be1961 my son,1121 and I589 will be his father;1 and I will establish3559 the throne3678 of his kingdom4438 over5921 Israel3478 forever.5704 5769

10 He shall build a house for my name; and he shall be to me like a son, and I will be to him like a father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.

11 Now,6258 my son,1121 the LORD3068 be1961 with5973 thee; and prosper6743 thou, and build1129 the house1004 of the LORD3068 thy God,430 as834 he hath said1696 of5921 thee.

11 Now, my son, the LORD be with you, so that you may prosper, and build the house of the LORD your God, as he has said to me.

12 Only389 the LORD3068 give5414 thee wisdom7922 and understanding,998 and give thee charge6680 concerning5921 Israel,3478 that thou mayest keep8104 853 the law8451 of the LORD3068 thy God.430

12 Only may the LORD give you wisdom and understanding, and give you charge concerning Israel, that you may keep the law of the LORD your God, just as he has commanded you.

13 Then227 shalt thou prosper,6743 if518 thou takest heed8104 to fulfill6213 853 the statutes2706 and judgments4941 which834 the LORD3068 charged6680 853 Moses4872 with concerning5921 Israel:3478 be strong,2388 and of good courage;553 dread3372 not,408 nor408 be dismayed.2865

13 Then you shall prosper if you take heed to observe these commandments and the statutes and judgments just as the LORD charged Moses to teach Israel, then you will be strong and of good courage; fear not, nor be dismayed.

14 Now, behold,2009 in my trouble6040 I have prepared3559 for the house1004 of the LORD3068 a hundred3967 thousand505 talents3603 of gold,2091 and a thousand505 thousand505 talents3603 of silver;3701 and of brass5178 and iron1270 without369 weight;4948 for3588 it is1961 in abundance:7230 timber6086 also and stone68 have I prepared;3559 and thou mayest add3254 thereto.5921

14 Now, behold, I have prepared for you everything necessary for the building of the house of the LORD. I have prepared for you a hundred thousand talents of gold, a million talents of silver; and brass and iron without weight; no man knows its weight, for it is in abundance; timber also and stones I have prepared; and you may add thereto.

15 Moreover there are workmen6213 4399 with5973 thee in abundance,7230 hewers2672 and workers2796 of stone68 and timber,6086 and all manner3605 of cunning men2450 for every manner3605 of work.4399

15 Moreover there are workers with you in abundance, stonecutters, masons, and carpenters,

16 Of the gold,2091 the silver,3701 and the brass,5178 and the iron,1270 there is no369 number.4557 Arise6965 therefore, and be doing,6213 and the LORD3068 be1961 with5973 thee.

16 Cunning men for every manner of work; of gold, silver, brass, and iron in abundance. Be strong therefore and be doing, and the LORD will help you.

17 David1732 also commanded6680 all3605 the princes8269 of Israel3478 to help5826 Solomon8010 his son,1121 saying,

17 David also commanded all the elders of Israel, saying, You must help Solomon my son.

18 Is not3808 the LORD3068 your God430 with5973 you? and hath he not given you rest5117 on every side?4480 5439 for3588 he hath given5414 853 the inhabitants3427 of the land776 into mine hand;3027 and the land776 is subdued3533 before6440 the LORD,3068 and before6440 his people.5971

18 For behold, the LORD your God is with you; and he will help you and relieve you on every side. Behold he has delivered all the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and the land is subdued before the LORD and before his people.

19 Now6258 set5414 your heart3824 and your soul5315 to seek1875 the LORD3068 your God;430 arise6965 therefore, and build1129 ye853 the sanctuary4720 of the LORD3068 God,430 to bring935 853 the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD,3068 and the holy6944 vessels3627 of God,430 into the house1004 that is to be built1129 to the name8034 of the LORD.3068

19 Now set your heart and your soul to pray before the LORD your God; arise therefore, and build the sanctuary of the LORD God, and bring there the ark in which is the covenant of the LORD our God, and the holy vessels of the LORD our God; and build the house because of his great name by which we are known.
