And DavidH1732 assembledH6950 all the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478, the princesH8269 of the tribesH7626, and the captainsH8269 of the companiesH4256 that ministeredH8334 to the kingH4428 by courseH4256, and the captainsH8269 over the thousandsH505, and captainsH8269 over the hundredsH3967, and the stewardsH8269 over all the substanceH7399 and possessionH4735 of the kingH4428, and of his sonsH1121, with the officersH5631, and with the mighty menH1368, and with all the valiant menH2428, unto JerusalemH3389. {possession: or, cattle} {and of…: or, and his sons} {officers: or, eunuchs}
Then DavidH1732 the kingH4428 stood upH6965 upon his feetH7272, and saidH559, HearH8085 me, my brethrenH251, and my peopleH5971: As for me, I had in mine heartH3824 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 of restH4496 for the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and for the footstoolH1916+H7272 of our GodH430, and had made readyH3559 for the buildingH1129:
But GodH430 saidH559 unto me, Thou shalt not buildH1129 an houseH1004 for my nameH8034, because thou hast been a manH376 of warH4421, and hast shedH8210 bloodH1818. {blood: Heb. bloods}
Howbeit the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 choseH977 me before all the houseH1004 of my fatherH1 to be kingH4428 over IsraelH3478 for everH5769: for he hath chosenH977 JudahH3063 to be the rulerH5057; and of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, the houseH1004 of my fatherH1; and among the sonsH1121 of my fatherH1 he likedH7521 me to make me kingH4427 over all IsraelH3478:
And of all my sonsH1121, (for the LORDH3068 hath givenH5414 me manyH7227 sonsH1121,) he hath chosenH977 SolomonH8010 my sonH1121 to sitH3427 upon the throneH3678 of the kingdomH4438 of the LORDH3068 over IsraelH3478.
And he saidH559 unto me, SolomonH8010 thy sonH1121, he shall buildH1129 my houseH1004 and my courtsH2691: for I have chosenH977 him to be my sonH1121, and I will be his fatherH1.
Moreover I will establishH3559 his kingdomH4438 for everH5769, if he be constantH2388 to doH6213 my commandmentsH4687 and my judgmentsH4941, as at this dayH3117. {constant: Heb. strong}
Now therefore in the sightH5869 of all IsraelH3478 the congregationH6951 of the LORDH3068, and in the audienceH241 of our GodH430, keepH8104 and seekH1875 for all the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430: that ye may possessH3423 this goodH2896 landH776, and leave it for an inheritanceH5157 for your childrenH1121 afterH310 you forH5704 everH5769.
And thou, SolomonH8010 my sonH1121, knowH3045 thou the GodH430 of thy fatherH1, and serveH5647 him with a perfectH8003 heartH3820 and with a willingH2655 mindH5315: for the LORDH3068 searchethH1875 all heartsH3824, and understandethH995 all the imaginationsH3336 of the thoughtsH4284: if thou seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of thee; but if thou forsakeH5800 him, he will cast thee offH2186 for everH5703.
Take heedH7200 now; for the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977 thee to buildH1129 an houseH1004 for the sanctuaryH4720: be strongH2388, and doH6213 it.
Then DavidH1732 gaveH5414 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121 the patternH8403 of the porchH197, and of the housesH1004 thereof, and of the treasuriesH1597 thereof, and of the upper chambersH5944 thereof, and of the innerH6442 parloursH2315 thereof, and of the placeH1004 of the mercy seatH3727,
And the patternH8403 of all that he had by the spiritH7307, of the courtsH2691 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and of all the chambersH3957 round aboutH5439, of the treasuriesH214 of the houseH1004 of GodH430, and of the treasuriesH214 of the dedicated thingsH6944: {of all that…: Heb. of all that was with him}
Also for the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and for all the workH4399 of the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and for all the vesselsH3627 of serviceH5656 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
He gave of goldH2091 by weightH4948 for things of goldH2091, for all instrumentsH3627 of all manner of serviceH5656; silver also for all instrumentsH3627 of silverH3701 by weightH4948, for all instrumentsH3627 of every kind of serviceH5656:
Even the weightH4948 for the candlesticksH4501 of goldH2091, and for their lampsH5216 of goldH2091, by weightH4948 for every candlestickH4501, and for the lampsH5216 thereof: and for the candlesticksH4501 of silverH3701 by weightH4948, both for the candlestickH4501, and also for the lampsH5216 thereof, according to the useH5656 of every candlestickH4501.
And by weightH4948 he gave goldH2091 for the tablesH7979 of shewbreadH4635, for every tableH7979; and likewise silverH3701 for the tablesH7979 of silverH3701:
Also pureH2889 goldH2091 for the fleshhooksH4207, and the bowlsH4219, and the cupsH7184: and for the goldenH2091 basonsH3713 he gave gold by weightH4948 for every basonH3713; and likewise silver by weightH4948 for every basonH3713 of silverH3701:
And for the altarH4196 of incenseH7004 refinedH2212 goldH2091 by weightH4948; and goldH2091 for the patternH8403 of the chariotH4818 of the cherubimsH3742, that spread outH6566 their wings, and coveredH5526 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068.
All this, said David, the LORDH3068 made me understandH7919 in writingH3791 by his handH3027 upon me, even all the worksH4399 of this patternH8403.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to SolomonH8010 his sonH1121, Be strongH2388 and of good courageH553, and doH6213 it: fearH3372 not, nor be dismayedH2865: for the LORDH3068 GodH430, even my GodH430, will be with thee; he will not failH7503 thee, nor forsakeH5800 thee, until thou hast finishedH3615 all the workH4399 for the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
And, behold, the coursesH4256 of the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, even they shall be with thee for all the serviceH5656 of the houseH1004 of GodH430: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanshipH4399 every willingH5081 skilful manH2451, for any manner of serviceH5656: also the princesH8269 and all the peopleH5971 will be wholly at thy commandmentH1697.

KeepH8104 therefore and doH6213 them; for this is your wisdomH2451 and your understandingH998 in the sightH5869 of the nationsH5971, which shall hearH8085 all these statutesH2706, and sayH559, Surely this greatH1419 nationH1471 is a wiseH2450 and understandingH995 peopleH5971.
I callH5749 heavenH8064 and earthH776 to witnessH5749 against you this dayH3117, that ye shall soonH4118 utterlyH6 perishH6 from off the landH776 whereunto ye go overH5674 JordanH3383 to possessH3423 it; ye shall not prolongH748 your daysH3117 upon it, but shall utterlyH8045 be destroyedH8045.
Now therefore hearkenH8085, O IsraelH3478, unto the statutesH2706 and unto the judgmentsH4941, which I teachH3925 you, for to doH6213 them, that ye may liveH2421, and go inH935 and possessH3423 the landH776 which the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1 givethH5414 you.
Now therefore giveH5414 not your daughtersH1323 unto their sonsH1121, neither takeH5375 their daughtersH1323 unto your sonsH1121, nor seekH1875 their peaceH7965 or their wealthH2896 forH5704 everH5769: that ye may be strongH2388, and eatH398 the goodH2898 of the landH776, and leave it for an inheritanceH3423 to your childrenH1121 for everH5769.
YeG5210 areG2075 the lightG5457 of the worldG2889. A cityG4172 that is setG2749 onG1883 an hillG3735 cannotG3756+G1410 be hidG2928.
NeitherG3761 do men lightG2545 a candleG3088, andG2532 putG5087 itG846 underG5259 a bushelG3426, butG235 onG1909 a candlestickG3087; andG2532 it giveth lightG2989 unto allG3956 that are inG1722 the houseG3614. {a bushel: the word in the original signifieth a measure containing about a pint less than a peck}
Let yourG5216 lightG5457 soG3779 shineG2989 beforeG1715 menG444, thatG3704 they may seeG1492 yourG5216 goodG2570 worksG2041, andG2532 glorifyG1392 yourG5216 FatherG3962 whichG3588 is inG1722 heavenG3772.
Ye standH5324 this dayH3117 all of you beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 your GodH430; your captainsH7218 of your tribesH7626, your eldersH2205, and your officersH7860, with all the menH376 of IsraelH3478,
With my whole heartH3820 have I soughtH1875 thee: O let me not wanderH7686 from thy commandmentsH4687.
Ye shall observeH8104 to doH6213 therefore as the LORDH3068 your GodH430 hath commandedH6680 you: ye shall not turn asideH5493 to the right handH3225 or to the leftH8040.
A goodH2896 man leaveth an inheritanceH5157 to his children'sH1121 childrenH1121: and the wealthH2428 of the sinnerH2398 is laid upH6845 for the justH6662.
ThatG2443 ye may beG1096 blamelessG273 andG2532 harmlessG185, the sonsG5043 of GodG2316, without rebukeG298, inG1722 the midstG3319 of a crookedG4646 andG2532 perverseG1294 nationG1074, amongG1722 whomG3739 ye shineG5316 asG5613 lightsG5458 inG1722 the worldG2889; {harmless: or, sincere} {ye shine: or, shine ye}
But with him that standethH5975 here with us thisH3426 dayH3117 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, and also with him that is not here with us this dayH3117:
Ye shall walkH3212 in all the waysH1870 which the LORDH3068 your GodH430 hath commandedH6680 you, that ye may liveH2421, and that it may be wellH2895 with you, and that ye may prolongH748 your daysH3117 in the landH776 which ye shall possessH3423.
Holding forthG1907 the wordG3056 of lifeG2222; thatG1519 IG1698 may rejoiceG2745 inG1519 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547, thatG3754 I haveG5143 notG3756 runG5143 inG1519 vainG2756, neitherG3761 labouredG2872 inG1519 vainG2756.
ImmediatelyG1824 thereforeG3767 I sentG3992 toG4314 theeG4571; andG5037 thouG4771 hast wellG2573 doneG4160 that thou art comeG3854. NowG3568 thereforeG3767 areG3918 weG2249 allG3956 here presentG3918 beforeG1799 GodG2316, to hearG191 all thingsG3956 that are commandedG4367 theeG4671 ofG5259 GodG2316.
Make me to understandH995 the wayH1870 of thy preceptsH6490: so shall I talkH7878 of thy wondrous worksH6381.
Now these are the commandmentsH4687, the statutesH2706, and the judgmentsH4941, which the LORDH3068 your GodH430 commandedH6680 to teachH3925 you, that ye might doH6213 them in the landH776 whither ye goH5674 to possessH3423 it: {go: Heb. pass over}
That thou mightest fearH3372 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to keepH8104 all his statutesH2708 and his commandmentsH4687, which I commandH6680 thee, thou, and thy sonH1121, and thy son'sH1121 sonH1121, all the daysH3117 of thy lifeH2416; and that thy daysH3117 may be prolongedH748.
HearH8085 therefore, O IsraelH3478, and observeH8104 to doH6213 it; that it may be wellH3190 with thee, and that ye may increaseH7235 mightilyH3966, as the LORDH3068 GodH430 of thy fathersH1 hath promisedH1696 thee, in the landH776 that flowethH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706.
WhereforeG5105 seeing we alsoG2532 areG2192 compassed aboutG4029+G2254 with so greatG5118 a cloudG3509 of witnessesG3144, letG659 usG2249 lay asideG659 everyG3956 weightG3591, andG2532 the sinG266 which doth so easily besetG2139 us, and let us runG5143 withG1223 patienceG5281 the raceG73 that is set beforeG4295 usG2254,
HE. TeachH3384 me, O LORDH3068, the wayH1870 of thy statutesH2706; and I shall keepH5341 it unto the endH6118.
LookingG872 untoG1519 JesusG2424 the authorG747 andG2532 finisherG5051 of our faithG4102; whoG3739 forG473 the joyG5479 that was set beforeG4295 himG846 enduredG5278 the crossG4716, despisingG2706 the shameG152, andG5037 is set downG2523 atG1722 the right handG1188 of the throneG2362 of GodG2316. {author: or, beginner}
Give me understandingH995, and I shall keepH5341 thy lawH8451; yea, I shall observeH8104 it with my whole heartH3820.
My sonH1121, if thou wilt receiveH3947 my wordsH561, and hideH6845 my commandmentsH4687 with thee;
So that thou inclineH7181 thine earH241 unto wisdomH2451, and applyH5186 thine heartH3820 to understandingH8394;
Yea, if thou criestH7121 after knowledgeH998, and liftest upH5414 thy voiceH6963 for understandingH8394; {liftest…: Heb. givest thy voice}
If thou seekestH1245 her as silverH3701, and searchestH2664 for her as for hid treasuresH4301;
Then shalt thou understandH995 the fearH3374 of the LORDH3068, and findH4672 the knowledgeH1847 of GodH430.
