And David
assembled
all
the princes
of Israel
,
the princes
of the tribes
,
and the captains
of the companies
that ministered
to the king
by course,
and the captains
over the thousands
,
and captains
over the hundreds
,
and the stewards
over
all
the substance
and possession
of the king
,
and of his sons
,
with the officers
,
and with the mighty
men
,
and with
all
the valiant
men
,
unto Jerusalem
.
2
Then David
the king
stood up
upon his feet
,
and said
,
Hear
me, my brethren,
and my people
:
As for me
, I
had
in mine heart
to build
an house
of rest
for the ark
of the covenant
of the LORD
, and for the foot
stool
of our God
,
and had made ready
for the building
:
3
But God
said
unto me, Thou shalt not build
an house
for my name
,
because
thou
hast been
a man
of war
,
and hast shed
blood
.
4
Howbeit the LORD
God
of Israel
chose
me before
all
the house
of my father
to be king
over
Israel
for ever
:
for he hath
chose
n
Judah
to be
the ruler
;
and of
the house
of
Judah
,
the house
of my father
;
and among the sons
of my father
he liked
me to make
me
king
over
all
Israel
:
5
And
of all
my son
s
,
(
for
the LORD
hath given
me many
sons,) he hath chosen
Solomon
my son
to sit
upon the throne
of the kingdom
of the LORD
over
Israel
.
6
And he said
unto me, Solomon
thy son
,
he shall build
my house
and my courts
:
for I have chosen
him
to be
my son
,
and I will be his father
.
7
Moreover I will establish
his kingdom
for
ever,
if
he be constant
to do
my commandments
and my judgments
,
as at this day
.
8
Now therefore in the sight
of
all
Israel
the congregation
of the LORD
,
and in the audience
of our God
,
keep
and seek
for
all
the commandments
of the LORD
your God
: that ye may possess
this good
land
,
and leave
it
for an inheritance
for your children
after
you for
ever.
9
And thou, Solomon
my son
,
know
thou the God
of thy father
,
and serve
him with a perfect
heart
and with a willing
mind
:
for the LORD
searcheth
all
heart
s
,
and understandeth
all
the imaginations
of the thoughts
:
if
thou seek
him, he will be found of thee; but
if
thou forsake him, he will cast thee off
for ever
.
10
Take heed
now
; for the LORD
hath chosen
thee to build
an house
for the sanctuary
:
be strong
,
and do
it
.
11
Then David
gave
to Solomon
his son
the pattern
of the porch
,
and of the houses
thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner
parlours
thereof, and of the place
of the mercy seat
,
12
And the pattern
of all
that he
had
by the spirit
,
of the courts
of the house
of the LORD
,
and
of all
the chambers
round about
,
of the treasuries
of the house
of God
,
and
of the treasuries
of the dedicated things
:
13
Also for the courses
of the priests
and the Levites
,
and for all
the work
of the service
of the house
of the LORD
,
and for all
the vessels
of service
in the house
of the LORD
.
14
He gave
of gold
by weight
for
things
of gold
,
for all
instruments
of all manner
of service
;
silver also
for all
instruments
of silver
by weight
,
for all
instruments
of
every
kind
of service
:
15
Even the weight
for the candlesticks
of gold
,
and for their lamps
of gold
,
by weight
for every candlestick
,
and for the lamps
thereof: and
for the candlesticks
of silver
by weight
,
both
for the candlestick
,
and
also
for the lamps
thereof, according to the use
of every candlestick
.
16
And by weight
he gave
gold
for the
tables
of shewbread
,
for every table
;
and
likewise
silver
for the
tables
of silver
:
17
Also pure
gold
for the fleshhooks
,
and the
bowls
,
and the cups
:
and for the golden
basons
he gave
gold
by weight
for every bason
;
and
likewise silver
by weight
for every bason
of silver
:
18
And for the altar
of incense
refined
gold
by weight
;
and
gold
for the pattern
of the chariot
of the cherubims
,
that spread out
their wings
, and covered
the ark
of the covenant
of the LORD
.
19
All
this, said David
, the LORD
made me understand
in writing
by
his
hand
upon me,
even
all
the works
of this pattern
.
20
And David
said
to Solomon
his son
,
Be strong
and of good courage
,
and do
it
: fear not,
nor
be dismayed:
for the LORD
God
,
even
my
God
,
will be
with thee; he will not fail thee,
nor
forsake thee,
until
thou hast finished
all
the work
for the service
of the house
of the LORD
.
21
And, behold, the courses
of the priests
and the Levites
,
even they sh
all
be with thee
for
all
the service
of the house
of God
:
and
there sh
all
be
with thee
for
all
manner of workmanship
every willing
skilful man
,
for any manner of service
:
also the princes
and
all
the people
will be
wholly at thy commandment
.
