| 1 | David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies who served the king by course, and the captains of thousands, and the captains of hundreds, and the rulers over all the substance and possessions of the king and of his sons, with the officers, and the mighty men, even all the mighty men of valor, to Jerusalem. | 1Ch 23:2 Jsh 23:2 Jsh 24:1 |
| 2 | Then David the king stood up on his feet, and said, Hear me, my brothers, and my people: as for me, it was in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, and for the footstool of our God; and I had made ready for the building. | Gn 48:2 1Ki 1:47 |
| 3 | But God said to me, You shall not build a house for my name, because you are a man of war, and have shed blood. | 1Ch 17:4 1Ch 22:8 2Sa 7:5-13 1Ki 5:3 2Ch 6:8 2Ch 6:9 |
| 4 | However Yahweh, the God of Israel, chose me out of all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever: for he has chosen Judah to be prince; and in the house of Judah, the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he took pleasure in me to make me king over all Israel; | 1Sa 16:6-13 2Sa 7:8-16 Ps 78:68-72 Ps 89:16-27 |
| 5 | Of all my sons (for Yahweh has given me many sons), he has chosen Solomon my son to sit on the throne of the kingdom of Yahweh over Israel. | 1Ch 3:1-9 1Ch 14:4-7 |

| 7 | I will establish his kingdom forever, if he be constant to do my commandments and my ordinances, as at this day. | Ps 89:28-37 Ps 132:12 Dn 2:44 |

| 9 | You, Solomon my son, know you the God of your father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind; for Yahweh searches all hearts, and understands all the imaginations of the thoughts: if you seek him, he will be found of you; but if you forsake him, he will cast you off forever. | Dt 4:35 1Ki 8:43 Ps 9:10 Jer 9:24 Jer 22:16 Jer 24:7 Jer 31:34 Hos 4:1 Hos 4:6 Jn 8:55 Jn 17:3 Ac 17:23 Ac 17:30 Ro 1:28 1Co 15:34 2Co 4:6 |
| 10 | Take heed now; for Yahweh has chosen you to build a house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it. | 1Ch 28:6 1Ch 22:16-19 1Ti 4:16 |

| 13 | also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of Yahweh, and for all the vessels of service in the house of Yahweh; | 1Ch 24:1-19 1Ch 25:1-31 |
| 14 | of gold by weight for the [vessels of] gold, for all vessels of every kind of service; [of silver] for all the vessels of silver by weight, for all vessels of every kind of service; |
| 15 | by weight also for the lampstands of gold, and for the lamps of it, of gold, by weight for every lampstand and for the lamps of it; and for the lampstands of silver, [silver] by weight for [every] lampstand and for the lamps of it, according to the use of every lampstand; | Ex 25:31-39 1Ki 7:19 2Ch 4:7 Zc 4:2 Zc 4:3 Zc 4:11-14 Rev 1:12 Rev 1:13 Rev 1:20 Rev 2:1 |
| 16 | and the gold by weight for the tables of show bread, for every table; and silver for the tables of silver; | Ex 25:23-30 1Ki 7:48 2Ch 4:8 2Ch 4:19 |
| 17 | and the flesh-hooks, and the basins, and the cups, of pure gold; and for the golden bowls by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls by weight for every bowl; | 1Sa 2:13 1Sa 2:14 2Ch 4:20-22 |
| 18 | and for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot, [even] the cherubim, that spread out [their wings], and covered the ark of the covenant of Yahweh. | Ex 30:1-10 1Ki 7:48 |
| 19 | All this, [said David], have I been made to understand in writing from the hand of Yahweh, even all the works of this pattern. | 1Ch 28:11 1Ch 28:12 Ex 25:40 Ex 26:30 |
| 20 | David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: don`t be afraid, nor be dismayed; for Yahweh God, even my God, is with you; he will not fail you, nor forsake you, until all the work for the service of the house of Yahweh is finished. | 1Ch 28:10 1Ch 22:13 Dt 31:7 Dt 31:8 Jsh 1:6-9 1Co 16:13 |
