¹¹David gave Solomon the plans for all the temple buildings, for the storerooms and all the other rooms, and for the Most Holy Place, where sins are forgiven. ¹²He also gave him the plans for all he had in mind for the courtyards and the rooms around them, and for the storerooms for the temple equipment and the gifts dedicated to the Lord. ¹³David also gave him the plans for organizing the priests and Levites to perform their duties, to do the work of the Temple, and to take care of all the temple utensils. ¹⁴He gave instructions as to how much silver and gold was to be used for making the utensils, ¹⁵for each lamp and lamp-stand, ¹⁶for the silver tables, and for each gold table on which were placed the loaves of bread offered to God. ¹⁷He also gave instructions as to how much pure gold was to be used in making forks, bowls, and jars, how much silver and gold in making dishes, ¹⁸and how much pure gold in making the altar on which incense was burnt and in making the chariot for the winged creatures that spread their wings over the Lord’s Covenant Box. ¹⁹King David said, “All this is contained in the plan written according to the instructions which the Lord himself gave me to carry out.”
