Furthermore DavidH1732 the kingH4428 saidH559 unto all the congregationH6951, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, whom aloneH259 GodH430 hath chosenH977, is yet youngH5288 and tenderH7390, and the workH4399 is greatH1419: for the palaceH1002 is not for manH120, but for the LORDH3068 GodH430.2Now I have preparedH3559 with all my mightH3581 for the houseH1004 of my GodH430 the goldH2091 for things to be made of goldH2091, and the silverH3701 for things of silverH3701, and the brassH5178 for things of brassH5178, the ironH1270 for things of ironH1270, and woodH6086 for things of woodH6086; onyxH7718 stonesH68, and stones to be setH4394, glisteringH6320 stonesH68, and of divers coloursH7553, and all manner of preciousH3368 stonesH68, and marbleH7893 stonesH68 in abundanceH7230.3Moreover, because I have set my affectionH7521 to the houseH1004 of my GodH430, I haveH3426 of mine own proper goodH5459, of goldH2091 and silverH3701, which I have givenH5414 to the houseH1004 of my GodH430, over and aboveH4605 all that I have preparedH3559 for the holyH6944 houseH1004,4Even threeH7969 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of goldH2091, of the goldH2091 of OphirH211, and sevenH7651 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of refinedH2212 silverH3701, to overlayH2902 the wallsH7023 of the housesH1004 withal:5The goldH2091 for things of goldH2091, and the silverH3701 for things of silverH3701, and for all manner of workH4399 to be made by the handsH3027 of artificersH2796. And who then is willingH5068 to consecrateH4390 his serviceH3027 this dayH3117 unto the LORDH3068?

6Then the chiefH8269 of the fathersH1 and princesH8269 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the captainsH8269 of thousandsH505 and of hundredsH3967, with the rulersH8269 of the king'sH4428 workH4399, offered willinglyH5068,7And gaveH5414 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430 of goldH2091 fiveH2568 thousandH505 talentsH3603 and ten thousandH7239 dramsH150, and of silverH3701 tenH6235 thousandH505 talentsH3603, and of brassH5178 eighteenH8083 H7239 thousandH505 talentsH3603, and one hundredH3967 thousandH505 talentsH3603 of ironH1270.8And they with whom precious stonesH68 were foundH4672 gaveH5414 them to the treasureH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, by the handH3027 of JehielH3171 the GershoniteH1649.9Then the peopleH5971 rejoicedH8055, for that they offered willinglyH5068, because with perfectH8003 heartH3820 they offered willinglyH5068 to the LORDH3068: and DavidH1732 the kingH4428 also rejoicedH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057.

10Wherefore DavidH1732 blessedH1288 the LORDH3068 beforeH5869 all the congregationH6951: and DavidH1732 saidH559, BlessedH1288 be thou, LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 our fatherH1, forH5704 everH5769 and everH5769.11Thine, O LORDH3068, is the greatnessH1420, and the powerH1369, and the gloryH8597, and the victoryH5331, and the majestyH1935: for all that is in the heavenH8064 and in the earthH776 is thine; thine is the kingdomH4467, O LORDH3068, and thou art exaltedH4984 as headH7218 above all.12Both richesH6239 and honourH3519 come of theeH6440, and thou reignestH4910 over all; and in thine handH3027 is powerH3581 and mightH1369; and in thine handH3027 it is to make greatH1431, and to give strengthH2388 unto all.13Now therefore, our GodH430, we thankH3034 thee, and praiseH1984 thy gloriousH8597 nameH8034.14But who am I, and what is my peopleH5971, that we should beH6113 ableH3581 to offer so willinglyH5068 after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine ownH3027 have we givenH5414 thee.15For we are strangersH1616 beforeH6440 thee, and sojournersH8453, as were all our fathersH1: our daysH3117 on the earthH776 are as a shadowH6738, and there is none abidingH4723.16O LORDH3068 our GodH430, all this storeH1995 that we have preparedH3559 to buildH1129 thee an houseH1004 for thine holyH6944 nameH8034 cometh of thine handH3027, and is all thine own.17I knowH3045 also, my GodH430, that thou triestH974 the heartH3824, and hast pleasureH7521 in uprightnessH3476. As for me, in the uprightnessH4339 of mine heartH3824 I have willingly offeredH5068 all these things: and now have I seenH7200 with joyH8057 thy peopleH5971, which are presentH4672 here, to offer willinglyH5068 unto thee.18O LORDH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and of IsraelH3478, our fathersH1, keepH8104 this for everH5769 in the imaginationH3336 of the thoughtsH4284 of the heartH3824 of thy peopleH5971, and prepareH3559 their heartH3824 unto thee:19And giveH5414 unto SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 a perfectH8003 heartH3824, to keepH8104 thy commandmentsH4687, thy testimoniesH5715, and thy statutesH2706, and to doH6213 all these things, and to buildH1129 the palaceH1002, for the which I have made provisionH3559.

20And DavidH1732 saidH559 to all the congregationH6951, Now blessH1288 the LORDH3068 your GodH430. And all the congregationH6951 blessedH1288 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, and bowed down their headsH6915, and worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068, and the kingH4428.21And they sacrificedH2076 sacrificesH2077 unto the LORDH3068, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 unto the LORDH3068, on the morrowH4283 after that dayH3117, even a thousandH505 bullocksH6499, a thousandH505 ramsH352, and a thousandH505 lambsH3532, with their drink offeringsH5262, and sacrificesH2077 in abundanceH7230 for all IsraelH3478:22And did eatH398 and drinkH8354 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 on that dayH3117 with greatH1419 gladnessH8057. And they made SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732 kingH4427 the second timeH8145, and anointedH4886 him unto the LORDH3068 to be the chief governorH5057, and ZadokH6659 to be priestH3548.23Then SolomonH8010 sat onH3427 the throneH3678 of the LORDH3068 as kingH4428 instead of DavidH1732 his fatherH1, and prosperedH6743; and all IsraelH3478 obeyedH8085 him.24And all the princesH8269, and the mighty menH1368, and all the sonsH1121 likewise of kingH4428 DavidH1732, submitted themselvesH5414 H3027 H8478 unto SolomonH8010 the kingH4428.25And the LORDH3068 magnifiedH1431 SolomonH8010 exceedinglyH4605 in the sightH5869 of all IsraelH3478, and bestowedH5414 upon him such royalH4438 majestyH1935 as had not been on any kingH4428 beforeH6440 him in IsraelH3478.

26Thus DavidH1732 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 reignedH4427 over all IsraelH3478.27And the timeH3117 that he reignedH4427 over IsraelH3478 was fortyH705 yearsH8141; sevenH7651 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in HebronH2275, and thirtyH7970 and threeH7969 years reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389.28And he diedH4191 in a goodH2896 old ageH7872, fullH7649 of daysH3117, richesH6239, and honourH3519: and SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.29Now the actsH1697 of DavidH1732 the kingH4428, firstH7223 and lastH314, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH1697 of SamuelH8050 the seerH7200, and in the bookH1697 of NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and in the bookH1697 of GadH1410 the seerH2374,30With all his reignH4438 and his mightH1369, and the timesH6256 that went overH5674 him, and over IsraelH3478, and over all the kingdomsH4467 of the countriesH776.
