Furthermore David
<01732>

the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto all the congregation

Solomon
<08010>

my son
<01121>_,

God
<0430>

hath chosen
<0977> (8804)_,

[is yet] young
<05288>

and tender
<07390>_,

and the work
<04399>

[is] great
<01419>_:

for the palace
<01002>

[is] not for man
<0120>_,

but for the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>_.

29:2

Now I have prepared
<03559> (8689)

with all my might
<03581>

<01004>

of my God
<0430>

and all manner of precious
<03368>

<068>_,

and marble
<07893>

<068>

in abundance
<07230>_.

29:3

Moreover, because I have set my affection
<07521> (8800)

to the house
<01004>

of my God
<0430>_,

I have
<03426>

of mine own proper good
<05459>_,

of gold
<02091>

and silver
<03701>_,

[which] I have given
<05414> (8804)

to the house
<01004>

of my God
<0430>_,

over and above
<04605>

all that I have prepared
<03559> (8689)

for the holy
<06944>

house
<01004>_,

29:4

[Even] three
<07969>

thousand
<0505>

talents
<03603>

of gold
<02091>_,

of the gold
<02091>

<0211>_,

and seven
<07651>

thousand
<0505>

talents
<03603>

of refined
<02212> (8794)

silver
<03701>_,

to overlay
<02902> (8800)

the walls
<07023>

of the houses
<01004>

[withal]:

29:5

The gold
<02091>

for [things] of gold
<02091>_,

and the silver
<03701>

for [things] of silver
<03701>_,

and for all manner of work
<04399>

[to be made] by the hands
<03027>

of artificers
<02796>_.

And who [then] is willing
<05068> (8693)

to consecrate
<04390> (8763)

his service
<03027>

this day
<03117>

of God

29:8

And they with whom [precious] stones
<068>

were found
<04672> (8737)

gave
<05414> (8804)

[them] to the treasure
<0214>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

by the hand
<03027>

of Jehiel
<03171>

the Gershonite
<01649>_.

29:9

Then the people
<05971>

rejoiced
<08055> (8799)_,

for that they offered willingly
<05068> (8692)_,

because with perfect
<08003>

heart
<03820>

they offered willingly
<05068> (8694)

to the LORD
<03068>_:

and David
<01732>

the king
<04428>

also rejoiced
<08055> (8804)

with great
<01419>

joy
<08057>_.

29:10

Wherefore David
<01732>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>

before
<05869>

all the congregation
<06951>_:

and David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] thou, LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

our father
<01>_,

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>

and ever
<05769>_.

29:11

Thine, O LORD
<03068>_,

[is] the greatness
<01420>_,

and the power
<01369>_,

and the glory
<08597>_,

and the victory
<05331>_,

and the majesty
<01935>_:

for all [that is] in the heaven
<08064>

and in the earth
<0776>

[is thine]; thine [is] the kingdom
<04467>_,

O LORD
<03068>_,

and thou art exalted
<04984> (8693)

as head
<07218>

above all.

29:12

Both riches
<06239>

and honour
<03519>

[come] of thee
<06440>_,

and thou reignest
<04910> (8802)

over all; and in thine hand
<03027>

[is] power
<03581>

and might
<01369>_;

and in thine hand
<03027>

[it is] to make great
<01431> (8763)_,

and to give strength
<02388> (8763)

unto all.

29:13

Now therefore, our God
<0430>_,

we thank
<03034> (8688)

thee, and praise
<01984> (8764)

thy glorious
<08597>

name
<08034>_.

29:14

But who [am] I, and what [is] my people
<05971>_,

that we should be
<06113> (8799)

able
<03581>

to offer so willingly
<05068> (8692)

after this sort? for all things [come] of thee, and of thine own
<03027>

have we given
<05414> (8804)

thee. {be able: Heb. retain, or, obtain strength} {of thine...: Heb. of thine hand}

29:15

For we [are] strangers
<01616>

before
<06440>

thee, and sojourners
<08453>_,

as [were] all our fathers
<01>_:

our days
<03117>

on the earth
<0776>

[are] as a shadow
<06738>_,

and [there is] none abiding
<04723>_.

{abiding: Heb. expectation}

29:16

O LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

all this store
<01995>

that we have prepared
<03559> (8689)

to build
<01129> (8800)

thee an house
<01004>

for thine holy
<06944>

name
<08034>

[cometh] of thine hand
<03027>_,

and [is] all thine own.

29:17

I know
<03045> (8804)

also, my God
<0430>_,

that thou triest
<0974> (8802)

the heart
<03824>_,

and hast pleasure
<07521> (8799)

in uprightness
<03476>_.

As for me, in the uprightness
<04339>

of mine heart
<03824>

I have willingly offered
<05068> (8694)

all these things: and now have I seen
<07200> (8804)

with joy
<08057>

thy people
<05971>_,

which are present
<04672> (8738)

here, to offer willingly
<05068> (8692)

unto thee. {present: Heb. found}

29:18

O LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Abraham
<085>_,

Isaac
<03327>_,

and of Israel
<03478>_,

our fathers
<01>_,

keep
<08104> (8798)

this for ever
<05769>

in the imagination
<03336>

of the thoughts
<04284>

of the heart
<03824>

of thy people
<05971>_,

and prepare
<03559> (8685)

their heart
<03824>

unto thee: {prepare: or, stablish}

29:19

And give
<05414> (8798)

unto Solomon
<08010>

my son
<01121>

a perfect
<08003>

heart
<03824>_,

to keep
<08104> (8800)

thy commandments
<04687>_,

thy testimonies
<05715>_,

and thy statutes
<02706>_,

and to do
<06213> (8800)

all [these things], and to build
<01129> (8800)

the palace
<01002>_,

[for] the which I have made provision
<03559> (8689)_.

29:20

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

to all the congregation
<06951>_,

Now bless
<01288> (8761)

the LORD
<03068>

your God
<0430>_.

And all the congregation
<06951>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_,

and bowed down their heads
<06915> (8799)_,

and worshipped
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_,

and the king
<04428>_.
