1 Furthermore David1732 the king4428 said559 unto all3605 the congregation,6951 Solomon8010 my son,1121 whom alone259 God430 hath chosen,977 is yet young5288 and tender,7390 and the work4399 is great:1419 for3588 the palace1002 is not3808 for man,120 but3588 for the LORD3068 God.430

2 Now I have prepared3559 with all3605 my might3581 for the house1004 of my God430 the gold2091 for things to be made of gold,2091 and the silver3701 for things of silver,3701 and the brass5178 for things of brass,5178 the iron1270 for things of iron,1270 and wood6086 for things of wood;6086 onyx7718 stones,68 and stones to be set,4394 glistering6320 stones,68 and of divers colors,7553 and all manner3605 of precious3368 stones,68 and marble7893 stones68 in abundance.7230

3 Moreover,5750 because I have set my affection7521 to the house1004 of my God,430 I have3426 of mine own proper good,5459 of gold2091 and silver,3701 which I have given5414 to the house1004 of my God,430 over4605 and above all4480 3605 that I have prepared3559 for the holy6944 house,1004

4 Even three7969 thousand505 talents3603 of gold,2091 of the gold4480 2091 of Ophir,211 and seven7651 thousand505 talents3603 of refined2212 silver,3701 to overlay2902 the walls7023 of the houses1004 withal:

5 The gold2091 for things of gold,2091 and the silver3701 for things of silver,3701 and for all manner3605 of work4399 to be made by the hands3027 of artificers.2796 And who4310 then is willing5068 to consecrate his service4390 3027 this day3117 unto the LORD?3068

6 Then the chief8269 of the fathers1 and princes8269 of the tribes7626 of Israel,3478 and the captains8269 of thousands505 and of hundreds,3967 with the rulers8269 of the king's4428 work,4399 offered willingly,5068

7 And gave5414 for the service5656 of the house1004 of God430 of gold2091 five2568 thousand505 talents3603 and ten thousand7239 drams,150 and of silver3701 ten6235 thousand505 talents,3603 and of brass5178 eighteen thousand7239 8083 505 talents,3603 and one hundred3967 thousand505 talents3603 of iron.1270

8 And they with854 whom precious stones68 were found4672 gave5414 them to the treasure214 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 by5921 the hand3027 of Jehiel3171 the Gershonite.1649

9 Then the people5971 rejoiced,8055 for5921 that they offered willingly,5068 because3588 with perfect8003 heart3820 they offered willingly5068 to the LORD:3068 and David1732 the king4428 also1571 rejoiced8055 with great1419 joy.8057

10 Wherefore David1732 blessed1288 853 the LORD3068 before5869 all3605 the congregation:6951 and David1732 said,559 Blessed1288 be thou,859 LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 our father,1 forever4480 5769 and ever.5704 5769

11 Thine, O LORD,3068 is the greatness,1420 and the power,1369 and the glory,8597 and the victory,5331 and the majesty:1935 for3588 all3605 that is in the heaven8064 and in the earth776 is thine; thine is the kingdom,4467 O LORD,3068 and thou art exalted4984 as head7218 above all.3605

12 Both riches6239 and honor3519 come of4480 6440 thee, and thou859 reignest4910 over all;3605 and in thine hand3027 is power3581 and might;1369 and in thine hand3027 it is to make great,1431 and to give strength2388 unto all.3605

13 Now6258 therefore, our God,430 we587 thank3034 thee, and praise1984 thy glorious8597 name.8034

14 But3588 who4310 am I,589 and what4310 is my people,5971 that3588 we should be able6113 3581 to offer so willingly5068 after this sort?2063 for3588 all things3605 come of4480 thee, and of thine own4480 3027 have we given5414 thee.

15 For3588 we587 are strangers1616 before6440 thee, and sojourners,8453 as were all3605 our fathers:1 our days3117 on5921 the earth776 are as a shadow,6738 and there is none369 abiding.4723

16 O LORD3068 our God,430 all3605 this2088 store1995 that834 we have prepared3559 to build1129 thee a house1004 for thine holy6944 name8034 cometh of thine hand,4480 3027 and is all3605 thine own.

17 I know3045 also, my God,430 that3588 thou859 triest974 the heart,3824 and hast pleasure7521 in uprightness.3476 As for me,589 in the uprightness4339 of mine heart3824 I have willingly offered5068 all3605 these things:428 and now6258 have I seen7200 with joy8057 thy people,5971 which are present4672 here,6311 to offer willingly5068 unto thee.

18 O LORD3068 God430 of Abraham,85 Isaac,3327 and of Israel,3478 our fathers,1 keep8104 this2063 forever5769 in the imagination3336 of the thoughts4284 of the heart3824 of thy people,5971 and prepare3559 their heart3824 unto413 thee:

19 And give5414 unto Solomon8010 my son1121 a perfect8003 heart,3824 to keep8104 thy commandments,4687 thy testimonies,5715 and thy statutes,2706 and to do6213 all3605 these things, and to build1129 the palace,1002 for the which834 I have made provision.3559

20 And David1732 said559 to all3605 the congregation,6951 Now4994 bless1288 853 the LORD3068 your God.430 And all3605 the congregation6951 blessed1288 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 and bowed down their heads,6915 and worshiped7812 the LORD,3068 and the king.4428

21 And they sacrificed2076 sacrifices2077 unto the LORD,3068 and offered5927 burnt offerings5930 unto the LORD,3068 on the morrow4283 after that1931 day,3117 even a thousand505 bullocks,6499 a thousand505 rams,352 and a thousand505 lambs,3532 with their drink offerings,5262 and sacrifices2077 in abundance7230 for all3605 Israel: 3478

22 And did eat398 and drink8354 before6440 the LORD3068 on that1931 day3117 with great1419 gladness.8057 And they made4427 Solomon8010 the son1121 of David1732 king the second time,8145 and anointed4886 him unto the LORD3068 to be the chief governor,5057 and Zadok6659 to be priest.3548

23 Then Solomon8010 sat3427 on5921 the throne3678 of the LORD3068 as king4428 instead of8478 David1732 his father,1 and prospered;6743 and all3605 Israel3478 obeyed8085 413 him.

24 And all3605 the princes,8269 and the mighty men,1368 and all3605 the sons1121 likewise1571 of king4428 David,1732 submitted5414 3027 themselves unto8478 Solomon8010 the king.4428

25 And the LORD3068 magnified1431 853 Solomon8010 exceedingly4605 in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel,3478 and bestowed5414 upon5921 him such royal4438 majesty1935 as834 had not3808 been1961 on5921 any3605 king4428 before6440 him in5921 Israel.3478

26 Thus David1732 the son1121 of Jesse3448 reigned4427 over5921 all3605 Israel.3478

27 And the time3117 that834 he reigned4427 over5921 Israel3478 was forty705 years;8141 seven7651 years8141 reigned4427 he in Hebron,2275 and thirty7970 and three7969 years reigned4427 he in Jerusalem.3389

28 And he died4191 in a good old age,7872 2896 full7649 of days,3117 riches,6239 and honor:3519 and Solomon8010 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478

29 Now the acts1697 of David1732 the king,4428 first7223 and last,314 behold,2009 they are written3789 in5921 the book1697 of Samuel8050 the seer,7203 and in5921 the book1697 of Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 and in5921 the book1697 of Gad1410 the seer,2374

30 With5973 all3605 his reign4438 and his might,1369 and the times6256 that834 went over5674 5921 him, and over5921 Israel,3478 and over5921 all3605 the kingdoms4467 of the countries.776
