Gifts for Building the Temple

29 Then King David said to the whole assembly: “My son Solomon, the one whom God has chosen, is young and inexperienced.i The task is great, because this palatial structure is not for man but for the Lord God. 2 With all my resources I have provided for the temple of my God—goldj for the gold work, silver for the silver, bronze for the bronze, iron for the iron and wood for the wood, as well as onyx for the settings, turquoise,a k stones of various colors, and all kinds of fine stone and marble—all of these in large quantities.l 3 Besides, in my devotion to the temple of my God I now give my personal treasures of gold and silver for the temple of my God, over and above everything I have providedm for this holy temple: 4 three thousand talentsb of gold (gold of Ophir)n and seven thousand talentsc of refined silver,o for the overlaying of the walls of the buildings, 5 for the gold work and the silver work, and for all the work to be done by the craftsmen. Now, who is willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord today?”
