1 Chronicles

Chapter 28

1 AND David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes and the commanders of the divisions that ministered to the king and the commanders of the thousands and the captains of hundreds and the stewards of all the substance and herds of the king and of his sons, with the officers and with the mighty men of valour; and they all came to Jerusalem.

2 Then he said to them, Hear me, my brethren and my people: I had it in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD and for a dwelling place of our God, and I had made ready everything for the building of the house;

3 But the LORD said to me, You shall not build a house for my name because you are a man of war and have shed much blood.

4 However the LORD God of Israel chose me from all my father's house to be king over Israel for ever; for he has chosen out of the house of Judah to be the king; and of the tribe of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he chose me to be king over Israel;

5 And of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.

6 And he said to me, Solomon your son, he shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be a father to him.

7 Moreover I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever if he continues to keep my commandments and my judgments as at this day.

8 Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the people of the LORD and in the presence of the LORD our God, keep and seek for all his commandments; and you shall, possess this land for ever and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you for ever, and it shall not be destroyed.

9 And you, Solomon my son, know everything that the LORD our God has commanded us, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD knows everything that is in the heart and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts of men; if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off for ever.

10 Know now and take heed; for the LORD has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary of the name of the LORD; be strong, be valiant, and do it.

11 Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch and the measurements of the house and of its treasuries and of the upper chambers thereof and of the inner porticos thereof and of the outer porticos thereof and of the upper porticos thereof and of the lower porticos thereof;

12 And the pattern of the treasury and of the chambers for the service of the house of the LORD and the chambers of the cooks and the chambers of the butlers and the chamber of those in charge of the lamps:

13 Also for the divisions 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 vessels of all manner of service: silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every, kind of service;

15 And the place for the candlestick of gold and for their lamps of gold and the wicks thereof and the ornaments thereof and the vessels of oil thereof. David recorded everything, and gave it to Solomon his son;

16 And tables of silver and tables of gold; dishes of silver and dishes of gold;

17 Also large spoons, flesh hooks, and bowls of silver; the gold of these vessels could not be weighed;

18 And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubim 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 Then David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it; fear not, nor be dismayed; for the LORD God is with you; he will not fail you, nor forsake you, until you have finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.

21 And, behold, the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, I have given them authority over all the service of the house of the LORD; and they are with you, and shall be in charge of all the service; and they will do the work with skill, all the workmanship which is necessary for the service of the house of the LORD. And, behold, I have appointed over them authorities and overseers, so that they may seek and render all manner of service which is necessary.

Chapter 28

1 And David1732 assembled6950 all3605 the princes8269 of Israel,3478 the princes8269 of the tribes,7626 and the captains8269 of the companies4256 that ministered8334 to the king4428 by course,4256 and the captains8269 over the thousands,505 and captains8269 over the hundreds,3967 and the stewards8269 over all3605 the substance7399 and possession4735 of the king,4428 and of his sons,1121 with the officers,5631 and with the mighty1368 men, and with all3605 the valiant2428 men, to Jerusalem.3389

2 Then David1732 the king4428 stood6965 up on his feet,7272 and said,559 Hear8085 me, my brothers,251 and my people:5971 As for me, I had in my heart3824 to build1129 an house1004 of rest4496 for the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD,3068 and for the footstool1916 7272 of our God,430 and had made ready3559 for the building:1129

3 But God430 said559 to me, You shall not build1129 an house1004 for my name,8034 because3588 you have been a man376 of war,4421 and have shed8210 blood.1818

4 However, the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 chose977 me before all3605 the house1004 of my father25 to be king4428 over5921 Israel3478 for ever:5769 for he has chosen977 Judah3063 to be the ruler;5057 and of the house1004 of Judah,3063 the house1004 of my father;25 and among the sons1121 of my father25 he liked7521 me to make me king4427 over5921 all3605 Israel:3478

5 And of all3605 my sons,1121 (for the LORD3068 has given5414 me many7227 sons,1121) he has chosen977 Solomon8010 my son1121 to sit3427 on the throne3678 of the kingdom4438 of the LORD3068 over5921 Israel.3478

6 And he said559 to me, Solomon8010 your son,1121 he shall build1129 my house1004 and my courts:2691 for I have chosen977 him to be my son,1121 and I will be his father.25

7 Moreover I will establish3559 his kingdom4438 for ever,5769 if518 he be constant2388 to do6213 my commandments4687 and my judgments,4941 as at this2088 day.3117

8 Now6258 therefore in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel3478 the congregation6951 of the LORD,3068 and in the audience241 of our God,430 keep8104 and seek1875 for all3605 the commandments4687 of the LORD3068 your God:430 that you may possess3423 this good2896 land,776 and leave5157 it for an inheritance5157 for your children1121 after310 you for ever.5769

9 And you, Solomon8010 my son,1121 know3045 you the God430 of your father,25 and serve5647 him with a perfect8003 heart3820 and with a willing2655 mind:5315 for the LORD3068 searches1875 all3605 hearts,3824 and understands995 all3605 the imaginations3336 of the thoughts:4284 if518 you seek1875 him, he will be found4672 of you; but if518 you forsake5800 him, he will cast2186 you off for ever.5703

10 Take7200 heed7200 now;6258 for the LORD3068 has chosen977 you to build1129 an house1004 for the sanctuary:4720 be strong,2388 and do6213 it.

11 Then David1732 gave5414 to Solomon8010 his son1121 the pattern8403 of the porch,197 and of the houses1004 thereof, and of the treasuries1597 thereof, and of the upper5944 chambers5944 thereof, and of the inner6442 parlors2315 thereof, and of the place1004 of the mercy3727 seat,

12 And the pattern8403 of all3605 that he had by the spirit,7307 of the courts2691 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and of all3605 the chambers3957 round5439 about, of the treasuries214 of the house1004 of God,430 and of the treasuries214 of the dedicated6944 things:

13 Also for the courses4256 of the priests3548 and the Levites,3881 and for all3605 the work4399 of the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and for all3605 the vessels3627 of service5656 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

14 He gave of gold2091 by weight4948 for things of gold,2091 for all3605 instruments3627 of all3605 manner of service;5656 silver also for all3605 instruments3627 of silver3701 by weight,4948 for all3605 instruments3627 of every3605 kind of service:5656

15 Even the weight4948 for the candlesticks4501 of gold,2091 and for their lamps5216 of gold,2091 by weight4948 for every candlestick,4501 and for the lamps5216 thereof: and for the candlesticks4501 of silver3701 by weight,4948 both for the candlestick,4501 and also for the lamps5216 thereof, according to the use5656 of every candlestick.4501

16 And by weight4948 he gave gold2091 for the tables7979 of show bread,4635 for every table;7979 and likewise silver3701 for the tables7979 of silver:3701

17 Also pure2889 gold2091 for the meat hooks,4207 and the bowls,4219 and the cups:7184 and for the golden2091 basins3713 he gave gold by weight4948 for every basin;3713 and likewise silver by weight4948 for every basin3713 of silver:3701

18 And for the altar4196 of incense7004 refined2212 gold2091 by weight;4948 and gold2091 for the pattern8403 of the chariot4818 of the cherubim,3742 that spread6566 out their wings, and covered5526 the ark727 of the covenant of the LORD.3068

19 All3605 this, said David, the LORD3068 made me understand7919 in writing3791 by his hand3027 on me, even all3605 the works4399 of this pattern.8403

20 And David1732 said559 to Solomon8010 his son,1121 Be strong2388 and of good courage,553 and do6213 it: fear3372 not, nor408 be dismayed:2865 for the LORD3068 God,430 even my God,430 will be with you; he will not fail7503 you, nor3808 forsake5800 you, until5704 you have finished3615 all3605 the work4399 for the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD.3068

21 And, behold,2009 the courses4256 of the priests3548 and the Levites,3881 even they shall be with you for all3605 the service5656 of the house1004 of God:430 and there shall be with you for all3605 manner of workmanship4399 every3605 willing5081 skillful2451 man, for any3605 manner of service:5656 also the princes8269 and all3605 the people5971 will be wholly3605 at your commandment.1697

Chapter 28

1 AND David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes and the commanders of the divisions that ministered to the king and the commanders of the thousands and the captains of hundreds and the stewards of all the substance and herds of the king and of his sons, with the officers and with the mighty men of valour; and they all came to Jerusalem.

1 And David1732 assembled6950 all3605 the princes8269 of Israel,3478 the princes8269 of the tribes,7626 and the captains8269 of the companies4256 that ministered8334 to the king4428 by course,4256 and the captains8269 over the thousands,505 and captains8269 over the hundreds,3967 and the stewards8269 over all3605 the substance7399 and possession4735 of the king,4428 and of his sons,1121 with the officers,5631 and with the mighty1368 men, and with all3605 the valiant2428 men, to Jerusalem.3389

2 Then he said to them, Hear me, my brethren and my people: I had it in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD and for a dwelling place of our God, and I had made ready everything for the building of the house;

2 Then David1732 the king4428 stood6965 up on his feet,7272 and said,559 Hear8085 me, my brothers,251 and my people:5971 As for me, I had in my heart3824 to build1129 an house1004 of rest4496 for the ark727 of the covenant1285 of the LORD,3068 and for the footstool1916 7272 of our God,430 and had made ready3559 for the building:1129

3 But the LORD said to me, You shall not build a house for my name because you are a man of war and have shed much blood.

3 But God430 said559 to me, You shall not build1129 an house1004 for my name,8034 because3588 you have been a man376 of war,4421 and have shed8210 blood.1818

4 However the LORD God of Israel chose me from all my father's house to be king over Israel for ever; for he has chosen out of the house of Judah to be the king; and of the tribe of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he chose me to be king over Israel;

4 However, the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 chose977 me before all3605 the house1004 of my father25 to be king4428 over5921 Israel3478 for ever:5769 for he has chosen977 Judah3063 to be the ruler;5057 and of the house1004 of Judah,3063 the house1004 of my father;25 and among the sons1121 of my father25 he liked7521 me to make me king4427 over5921 all3605 Israel:3478

5 And of all my sons (for the LORD has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit upon the throne of the kingdom of the LORD over Israel.

5 And of all3605 my sons,1121 (for the LORD3068 has given5414 me many7227 sons,1121) he has chosen977 Solomon8010 my son1121 to sit3427 on the throne3678 of the kingdom4438 of the LORD3068 over5921 Israel.3478

6 And he said to me, Solomon your son, he shall build my house and my courts; for I have chosen him to be my son, and I will be a father to him.

6 And he said559 to me, Solomon8010 your son,1121 he shall build1129 my house1004 and my courts:2691 for I have chosen977 him to be my son,1121 and I will be his father.25

7 Moreover I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever if he continues to keep my commandments and my judgments as at this day.

7 Moreover I will establish3559 his kingdom4438 for ever,5769 if518 he be constant2388 to do6213 my commandments4687 and my judgments,4941 as at this2088 day.3117

8 Now therefore in the sight of all Israel the people of the LORD and in the presence of the LORD our God, keep and seek for all his commandments; and you shall, possess this land for ever and leave it for an inheritance for your children after you for ever, and it shall not be destroyed.

8 Now6258 therefore in the sight5869 of all3605 Israel3478 the congregation6951 of the LORD,3068 and in the audience241 of our God,430 keep8104 and seek1875 for all3605 the commandments4687 of the LORD3068 your God:430 that you may possess3423 this good2896 land,776 and leave5157 it for an inheritance5157 for your children1121 after310 you for ever.5769

9 And you, Solomon my son, know everything that the LORD our God has commanded us, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for the LORD knows everything that is in the heart and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts of men; if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off for ever.

9 And you, Solomon8010 my son,1121 know3045 you the God430 of your father,25 and serve5647 him with a perfect8003 heart3820 and with a willing2655 mind:5315 for the LORD3068 searches1875 all3605 hearts,3824 and understands995 all3605 the imaginations3336 of the thoughts:4284 if518 you seek1875 him, he will be found4672 of you; but if518 you forsake5800 him, he will cast2186 you off for ever.5703

10 Know now and take heed; for the LORD has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary of the name of the LORD; be strong, be valiant, and do it.

10 Take7200 heed7200 now;6258 for the LORD3068 has chosen977 you to build1129 an house1004 for the sanctuary:4720 be strong,2388 and do6213 it.

11 Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch and the measurements of the house and of its treasuries and of the upper chambers thereof and of the inner porticos thereof and of the outer porticos thereof and of the upper porticos thereof and of the lower porticos thereof;

11 Then David1732 gave5414 to Solomon8010 his son1121 the pattern8403 of the porch,197 and of the houses1004 thereof, and of the treasuries1597 thereof, and of the upper5944 chambers5944 thereof, and of the inner6442 parlors2315 thereof, and of the place1004 of the mercy3727 seat,

12 And the pattern of the treasury and of the chambers for the service of the house of the LORD and the chambers of the cooks and the chambers of the butlers and the chamber of those in charge of the lamps:

12 And the pattern8403 of all3605 that he had by the spirit,7307 of the courts2691 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and of all3605 the chambers3957 round5439 about, of the treasuries214 of the house1004 of God,430 and of the treasuries214 of the dedicated6944 things:

13 Also for the courses4256 of the priests3548 and the Levites,3881 and for all3605 the work4399 of the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD,3068 and for all3605 the vessels3627 of service5656 in the house1004 of the LORD.3068

14 He gave of gold by weight for things of gold, for all vessels of all manner of service: silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every, kind of service;

14 He gave of gold2091 by weight4948 for things of gold,2091 for all3605 instruments3627 of all3605 manner of service;5656 silver also for all3605 instruments3627 of silver3701 by weight,4948 for all3605 instruments3627 of every3605 kind of service:5656

16 And tables of silver and tables of gold; dishes of silver and dishes of gold;

16 And by weight4948 he gave gold2091 for the tables7979 of show bread,4635 for every table;7979 and likewise silver3701 for the tables7979 of silver:3701

17 Also large spoons, flesh hooks, and bowls of silver; the gold of these vessels could not be weighed;

19 All this, said David, the LORD made me understand in writing by his hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.

19 All3605 this, said David, the LORD3068 made me understand7919 in writing3791 by his hand3027 on me, even all3605 the works4399 of this pattern.8403

20 Then David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it; fear not, nor be dismayed; for the LORD God is with you; he will not fail you, nor forsake you, until you have finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.

20 And David1732 said559 to Solomon8010 his son,1121 Be strong2388 and of good courage,553 and do6213 it: fear3372 not, nor408 be dismayed:2865 for the LORD3068 God,430 even my God,430 will be with you; he will not fail7503 you, nor3808 forsake5800 you, until5704 you have finished3615 all3605 the work4399 for the service5656 of the house1004 of the LORD.3068

21 And, behold, the divisions of the priests and of the Levites, I have given them authority over all the service of the house of the LORD; and they are with you, and shall be in charge of all the service; and they will do the work with skill, all the workmanship which is necessary for the service of the house of the LORD.
