1 Chronicles 29:3–9

³Besides, 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 provided^m for this holy temple: ⁴three thousand talents^b of gold (gold of Ophir)ⁿ and seven thousand talents^c of refined silver,^o for the overlaying of the walls of the buildings, ⁵for 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?”

⁶Then the leaders of families, the officers of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and the officials^p in charge of the king’s work gave willingly.^{q 7}They^r gave toward the work on the temple of God five thousand talents^d and ten thousand darics^e of gold, ten thousand talents^f of silver, eighteen thousand talents^g of bronze and a hundred thousand talents^h of iron. ⁸Anyone who had precious stones^s gave them to the treasury of the temple of the Lord in the custody of Jehiel the Gershonite.^{t 9}The people rejoiced at the willing response of their leaders, for they had given freely and wholeheartedly^u to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly.
