Then David said, “Here
shall
be
the house of the
LORD
God, as
well
as
the altar of burnt offering for Israel. ”
Then David said, This
is
the house of Jehovah
God, and
this
is
the altar of burnt -
offering for Israel.
So
David gave
orders
to gather the foreigners
in the land of Israel ,
from
whom
he appointed
stonecutters
to prepare
finished
stones for
building
the house of God.
And
David commanded
to gather together
the sojourners
that
were
in the land of Israel ;
and
he set
masons
to hew
wrought
stones to
build
the house of God.
David provided
a
large
quantity
of
iron to
make
the nails for the doors of the gateways
and for the fittings,
together
with
more
bronze
than
could
be
weighed
And
David prepared
iron in
abundance
for
the nails for the doors of the gates,
and for the couplings;
and
brass
in
abundance
without
weight;
and more
cedar logs
than
could
be
counted;
for the Sidonians and Tyrians
had
brought
a
large
quantity
of cedar logs
to David.
and cedar -trees
without
number:
for the Sidonians and they
of Tyre
brought
cedar -trees
in
abundance
to David.
And David said, “
My son Solomon
is young and inexperienced
, and the house to be built
for the
LORD
must be exceedingly
magnificent —famous
and glorious
throughout all lands.
Therefore
I must
make preparations
for it. ”
So David made
lavish
preparations
before his death.
And David said, Solomon
my son is young and tender
, and the house that
is
to be builded
for Jehovah
must be exceeding
magnificent ,
of
fame
and of
glory
throughout all countries:
I will
therefore
make preparation
for it. So David prepared
abundantly
before his death.
Then David
called for his son Solomon
and instructed
him to build a house for the
LORD
, the God of Israel.
Then he
called for Solomon
his son ,
and charged
him to build a house for Jehovah
, the God of Israel.
“My
son,”
said
David to Solomon, “
it was in my heart to build a house for
the Name of the
LORD
my God ,
And
David said
to Solomon his
son
, As
for
me,
it was in my heart to build a house unto
the name of Jehovah
my God .
but this
word of the
LORD
came to me :
‘You
have
shed much
blood and waged
great wars .
You
are
not to
build a house for
My Name because you
have
shed so
much blood on
the ground
before
Me
.
But the
word of Jehovah
came to me ,
saying,
Thou
hast
shed blood abundantly,
and hast
made
great wars :
thou
shalt
not build a house unto
my name ,
because thou
hast
shed much blood upon
the earth
in
my
sight
.
But
a son will
be born to you
who will
be a man of rest .
I will give him rest from all his enemies on
every
side
; for his name will
be Solomon, and I will grant
to
Israel
peace and quiet
during
his reign.
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 is
the
one
who
will
build a house for My Name .
He will
be My son, and I will be his Father .
And I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever
. ’
he shall
build a 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, may
the
LORD
be with you
, and may
you
succeed
in
building
the house of the
LORD
your
God, as He said
you
would
.
Now, my son, Jehovah
be with thee;
and
prosper
thou
, and build
the house of Jehovah
thy
God, as he hath
spoken
concerning
thee
.
Above
all,
may
the
LORD
give you
insight
and understanding when
He
puts
you
in
command
over
Israel
, so
that you
may
keep the Law of the
LORD
your
God.
Only
Jehovah
give thee
discretion
and understanding, and
give
thee
charge
concerning
Israel;
that so
thou
mayest
keep the law of Jehovah
thy
God.
Then you
will
succeed
, if you
carefully
follow
the statutes and ordinances
that
the LORD
commanded
Moses for
Israel .
Be strong and courageous.
Do
not be afraid
or
discouraged
.
Then shalt
thou
prosper
, if thou
observe
to
do
the statutes and the ordinances
which
Jehovah
charged
Moses with
concerning
Israel :
be strong ,
and of
good
courage;
fear
not ,
neither
be dismayed
.
Now behold, I have taken
great
pains
to
provide
for the house of the
LORD—100,000
talents of gold, 1,000,000
talents of silver, and bronze
and iron too
great
to
be
weighed.
I
have
also
provided
timber and stone ,
and you
may
add to
them
.
Now ,
behold, in
my
affliction
I have prepared
for the house of Jehovah
a
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
.
You
also
have
many
workers:
stonecutters,
masons
, carpenters
, and men skilled
in every kind
of work —
Moreover
there
are
workmen
with
thee
in
abundance
, hewers
and
workers
of
stone
and
timber
, and all
men that
are
skilful
in every manner
of work :
in
gold and
silver, bronze
and iron —craftsmen
beyond
number. Now
begin
the
work
, and may
the
LORD
be with you
. ”
of
the
gold ,
the
silver, and the
brass,
and
the
iron ,
there
is
no
number. Arise
and
be
doing
, and Jehovah
be with thee
.
Then
David ordered
all the leaders
of Israel to help his son Solomon:
David also
commanded
all the princes
of Israel to help Solomon
his son ,
`saying',
“
Is not the
LORD
your God with you ,
and has
He not granted
you rest on every side? For He has
given
the inhabitants of the land into my hand ,
and the land has
been
subdued before the
LORD
and His people.
Is not Jehovah
your God with you ?
and hath
he not given
you rest on every side? for he hath
delivered
the inhabitants of the land into my hand ;
and the land is
subdued before Jehovah,
and before
his people.
Now set your heart and soul to seek the
LORD
your God .
Get
started
building
the sanctuary of the
LORD
God, so
that
you
may
bring the ark of the covenant of the
LORD
and the holy articles
of God into the temple
that will
be built for
the Name of the
LORD
. ”
Now set your heart and your
soul to seek after
Jehovah
your God ;
arise
therefore,
and
build
ye
the sanctuary of Jehovah
God, to
bring the ark of the covenant of Jehovah,
and the holy vessels
of God ,
into the house
that is
to
be built to
the name of Jehovah
.
