ECB⁽ⁱ⁾ ² And David the sovereign rises on his feet and says, Hear me, my brothers and my people: I had in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of Yah Veh and for the stool of the feet of our Elohim; and prepared to build. ³ And Elohim says to me, You, build not a house for my name; because you are a man of war who poured blood. ⁴ And Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El chooses me from all the house of my father - sovereign over Yisra El eternally: for he chose Yah Hudah for eminence; and of the house of Yah Hudah the house of my father; and among the sons of my father he is pleased that I reign over all Yisra El: ⁵ and of all my sons, - Yah Veh gave me many sons he chooses Shelomoh my son to settle on the throne of the sovereigndom of Yah Veh over Yisra El. ⁶ And he says to me, Shelomoh your son - he builds my house and my courts: for I choose him to become to me - son and I become to him - father. ⁷ And I establish his sovereigndom eternally if he strenghthens to work my misvoth and my judgments, as at this day. ⁸ And now in the eyes of all Yisra El the congregation of Yah Veh and in the ears of our Elohim guard and seek for all the misvoth of Yah Veh your Elohim: so that you possess this good land and leave it for an inheritance for your sons after you eternally. ⁹ And you, Shelomoh my son, know the Elohim of your father; and serve him with a heart of shalom and with a soul of desire: for Yah Veh examines all hearts and discerns all the imaginations of fabrications: if you seek him, you find him; and if you forsake him, he abandons you eternally. ¹⁰ See now; for Yah Veh chooses you to build a house for the holies: Strengthen! Work! ¹¹ And David gives Shelomoh his son the pattern of the porch and of the houses and of the treasuries and of the upper rooms and of the inner chambers and of the house of the kapporeth; ¹² and the pattern of all he has by the spirit: of the courts of the house of Yah Veh and of all the chambers all around of the treasuries of the house of Elohim and of the treasuries of the holies: ¹³ and for the allotments of the priests and the Leviym and for all the work of the service of the house of Yah Veh and for all the instruments of service in the house of Yah Veh: ¹⁴ even gold by weight for that of gold for all instruments of service by service; for all instruments of silver by weight for all instruments of service by service: ¹⁵ even the weight for the menorah of gold and for their lamps of gold - by weight menorah by menorah; and for the lamps and for the menorah of silver by weight for the menorah and for the lamps; according to the service menorah by menorah: ¹⁶ and by weight, gold for the tables of arrangement - table by table: and silver for the tables of silver: ¹⁷ and pure gold for the forks and the sprinklers and the covers: and for the golden tankards by weight, tankard by tankard; and by weight, tankard by tankard of silver: ¹⁸ and for the sacrifice altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubim that spreads and covers the ark of the covenant of Yah Veh: ¹⁹ all Yah Veh has me comprehend in inscribing by his hand on me all the works of this pattern. ²⁰ And David says to Shelomoh his son, Strengthen! Encourage! Work! Neither awe, nor terrify: for Yah Veh Elohim, my Elohim, is with you; he neither lets you down nor forsakes you until you finish all the work for the service of the house of Yah Veh. ²¹ And behold, the allotments of the priests and the Leviym for all the service of the house of Elohim: and with you for all the work is every volunteer in wisdom for any manner of service: and the governors and all the people are wholly at your word.
