Then David said, "This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of burnt offering for Israel."
David gave orders to gather the foreigners living in the land of Israel, and he appointed stonecutters to dress stone for building the house of God.
He provided iron in abundance for the nails of the gate doors and for the clamps, and more bronze than could be weighed,
and cedar logs beyond counting, for the Sidonians and the Tyrians brought David cedar logs in abundance.
David said, "My son Solomon is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly great, a name and a glory throughout all lands. So I will make preparations for it." And David made abundant preparations before his death.
Then he called for his son Solomon and charged him to build a house for the LORD, the God of Israel.
David said to Solomon, "My son, it was my own heart's desire to build a house for the name of the LORD my God.
But the word of the LORD came to me: 'You have shed much blood and waged great wars. You shall not build a house for my name, because you have shed so much blood on the earth in my sight.
Look, a son will be born to you who will be a man of rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side. Solomon will be his name, and I will grant peace and quiet to 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.'
Now, my son, may the LORD be with you, so that you may succeed and build the house of the LORD your God, as he said you would.
Only may the LORD give you insight and understanding, and may he give you charge over Israel, so that you keep the law of the LORD your God.
Then you will succeed, if you are careful to keep the statutes and judgments that the LORD commanded Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or dismayed.
See, by hard labor I have provided for the house of the LORD a hundred thousand talents of gold and a million talents of silver, and bronze and iron beyond weighing, for there is so much of it. I have also provided timber and stone, and you may add to them.
You have many workers at your disposal: stonecutters, masons, carpenters, and craftsmen skilled in every kind of work.
Of the gold, the silver, the bronze, and the iron there is no limit. Now rise and do the work, and may the LORD be with you."
David also commanded all the leaders of Israel to help his son Solomon:
"Is not the LORD your God with you? Has he not given you rest on every side? For he has handed the inhabitants of the land over to me, and the land is subdued before the LORD and before his people.
Now devote your heart and soul to seeking the LORD your God. Rise and build the sanctuary of the LORD God, so that the ark of the covenant of the LORD and the holy vessels of God may be brought into the house built for the name of the LORD."
