Then David
said,
This is the house
of the LORD
God,
and this is the altar
of the burnt offering
for Israel.
And David
commanded
to gather together
the strangers
that were in the land
of Israel;
and he set
masons
to hew
wrought
stones
to build
the house
of God.

And David
prepared
iron
in abundance
for the nails
for the doors
of the gates,
and for the joinings;
and brass
in abundance
without weight;

Also cedar

in abundance:
for the Zidonians
and they of Tyre
brought
much
cedar
wood
to David.
And David
said,
Solomon
my son
is young
and tender,
and the house
that is to be builded
for the LORD
must be exceeding
magnifical,
of fame
and of glory
throughout all countries:
I will therefore now make preparation
for it. So David
prepared
abundantly
before
his death.

Then he called
for Solomon
his son,
and charged
him to build
an house
for the LORD
God
of Israel.
And David
said
to Solomon,
My son,
as for me, it was in my mind
to build
an house
unto the name
of the LORD
my God:
But the word
of the LORD
came to me, saying,
Thou hast shed
blood
abundantly,
and hast made
great
wars:
thou shalt not build
an house
unto my name,
because thou hast shed
much
blood
upon the earth
in my sight.
Behold, a son
shall be born
to thee, who shall be a man
of rest;
and I will give him rest
from all his enemies
round about:
for his name
shall be Solomon,
and I will give
peace
and quietness
unto Israel
in his days.

He shall build
an house
for my name;
and he shall be my son,
and I will be his father;
and I will establish
the throne
of his kingdom
over Israel
for
ever.
Now, my son,
the LORD
be with thee; and prosper
thou, and build
the house
of the LORD
thy God,
as he hath said
of thee.
Only the LORD
give
thee wisdom
and understanding,
and give thee charge
concerning Israel,
that thou mayest keep
the law
of the LORD
thy God.
Then shalt thou prosper,
if thou takest heed
to fulfil
the statutes
and judgments
which the LORD
charged
Moses
with concerning Israel:
be strong,
and of good courage;
dread
not, nor be dismayed.

Now, behold, in my trouble
I have prepared
for the house
of the LORD
an hundred
thousand
talents
of gold,
and a thousand
thousand
talents
of silver;
and of brass
and iron
without weight;
for it is in abundance:
timber
also and stone
have I prepared;
and thou mayest add
thereto.

Moreover there are workmen
with thee in abundance,
hewers
and workers
of stone
and timber,
and all manner of cunning men
for every manner of work.
Of the gold,
the silver,
and the brass,
and the iron,
there is no number.
Arise
therefore, and be doing,
and the LORD
be with thee.
David
also commanded
all the princes
of Israel
to help
Solomon
his son,
saying,
Is not the LORD
your God
with you? and hath he not given you rest
on every side?
for he hath given
the inhabitants
of the land
into mine hand;
and the land
is subdued
before
the LORD,
and before
his people.
Now set
your heart
and your soul
to seek
the LORD
your God;
arise
therefore, and build
ye the sanctuary
of the LORD
God,
to bring
the ark
of the covenant
of the LORD,
and the holy
vessels
of God,
into the house
that is to be built
to the name
of the LORD.
