29 And King David said to all of the assembly, “Solomon my son—God has chosen him alone—is young and tender, and the work is great, for the temple is not for man but for Yahweh God. 2 And according to all of my power I have prepared for the house of my God gold for the gold, and silver for the silver and bronze for the bronze; iron for the iron and wood for the wood; stones of onyx and settings, stones of antimony and variegation, and every precious stone and stones of marble, to abundance. 3 And again, in my delighting in the house of my God, I have given to the house of my God a treasure being to me, gold and silver, to above from everything I have prepared for the house of the sanctuary: 4 3,000 kikkars of gold from the gold of Ophir and 7,000 kikkars of refined silver to overlay the walls of the houses, 5 gold for the gold and silver for the silver and for all of the work by the hand of the craftsmen. And who is willing to fill his hand today to Yahweh?”

6 Then the leaders of the fathers offered freely, and the leaders of the tribes of Israel and the commanders of thousands and hundreds and the commanders of the work of the king. 7 And they gave gold for the service of the house of God, 5,000 kikkars and one myriad darics, and silver, 10,000 kikkars, and bronze, 18,000 kikkars, and iron, 100,000 kikkars. 8 And the one being found with it, they gave stones to the treasury of the house of Yahweh under the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite. 9 And the people rejoiced because they had offered freely, for with a whole heart they had offered freely to Yahweh. And King David also rejoiced a great rejoicing.

10 And David blessed Yahweh to the eyes of all of the assembly. And David said, “Blessed are you, Yahweh, God of Israel our father, from forever and to forever. 11 To you, Yahweh, are the greatness and the might and the glory and the splendor and the majesty, for everything in the heavens and on the earth is to you, Yahweh, the kingdom and lifting yourself above all as head. 12 And wealth and glory are from to your face, and you are ruling over all, and in your hand are power and might, and in your hand is to exalt and to strengthen all. 13 And now, our God, we are giving thanks to you and praising the name of your glory. 14 And for who am I, and who are my people, that we should have the power to offer freely like this? For everything is from you, and from your hand we have given to you. 15 For we are foreigners to your face and settlers, like all of our fathers. Our days upon the earth are like a shadow and without hope. 16 Yahweh our God, all of this abundance that we have prepared to build a house for you, for the name of your holiness, it is from your hand, and all is for you. 17 And I know, my God, that you are examining the heart and are pleased with uprightnesses. In the uprightness of my heart, I, I have offered freely all of these. And now your people have been found here, I see with rejoicing, to offer freely to you. 18 Yahweh, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep this forever concerning the intention of the thoughts of the heart of your people, and establish their heart toward you. 19 And give to Solomon my son a whole heart to keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes and to do everything and to build the temple that I have prepared.”

20 And David said to all of the assembly, “Now bless Yahweh your God.” And all of the assembly blessed Yahweh, the God of their fathers. And they bowed down and prostrated themselves to Yahweh and to the king. 21 And they sacrificed sacrifices to Yahweh and they offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on the morrow of that day, 1,000 bulls, 1,000 rams, 1,000 lambs, and their drink offerings and sacrifices to abundance for all of Israel. 22 And they ate and drank to the face of Yahweh on that day with great rejoicing. And they made Solomon, the son of David, king a second time, and they anointed a leader for Yahweh, and Zadok as priest. 23 And Solomon sat on the throne of Yahweh as king in place of David his father. And he succeeded, and all of Israel listened to him.

24 And all of the leaders and the warriors and also all of the sons of King David gave a hand under King Solomon. 25 And Yahweh made Solomon great to above in the eyes of all of Israel. And he put on him the majesty of a kingdom over Israel that had not been on any king to his face.

26 Now David, the son of Jesse, had reigned over all of Israel. 27 And the days that he reigned over Israel were 40 years. He reigned in Hebron 7 years, and he reigned in Jerusalem 33. 28 And he died in good old age, full of days, wealth, and glory. And Solomon his son reigned in his place. 29 Now the matters of King David, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the words of Samuel the seer and in the words of Nathan the prophet and in the words of Gad the visionary, 30 with all of his reign and his might and the times that passed over him and over Israel and over all of the kingdoms of the lands.
