13:028:021 And, behold, the courses of the priests
and the Levites, even
they
shall be with thee for all the service of the house
of
God:
and there shall be with thee for all manner of
workmanship
every willing skilful man, for any manner of
service:
also the princes and all the people will be wholly
at
thy
commandment.
13:029:001 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.
13:029:002 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.
13:029:003 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.
13:029:004 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:
13:029:005 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?
13:029:006 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,
13:029:007 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.
13:029:008 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.
13:029:009 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.
13:029:010 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.
