³² So he made two doors of olive-wood. And he carved upon them carvings of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers and overlaid them with gold. And he spread the gold upon the cherubim and upon the palm trees.

³⁵ And he carved on it cherubim and palm trees and open flowers. And he overlaid them with gold fitted upon the graven work.

¹⁹ And the capitals that were upon the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily-work, four cubits.

³⁸ And he made ten basins of brass. One basin contained forty baths. And every basin was four cubits. And upon every one of the ten bases one basin.

⁵ And it was a handbreadth thick. And the brim of it was worked like the brim of a cup, like the flower of a lily. It received and held three thousand baths.

¹⁴ and the set portion of oil, of the 9-gallon container of oil, the tenth part of a 9-gallon container out of the cor, which is ten baths, even a homer, (for ten baths are a homer),

¹⁶ The two pillars, the one sea and the bases, which Solomon had made for the house of Jehovah, the brass of all these vessels was without weight.

¹⁴ He also made the bases and he made the large-basins upon the bases,

²⁴ So he drove out the man. And he placed the cherubim and the flame of a sword which turned every way at the east of the garden of Eden to guard the way of the tree of life.

¹⁸ And you will make two cherubim of gold; of beaten work will you make them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat.

⁷ And he made two cherubim of gold, of beaten work he made them, at the two ends of the mercy-seat,

²⁷ And he set the cherubim inside the inner house. And the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall. And their wings touched each another in the middle of the house.

²⁵ It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north and three looking toward the west and three looking toward the south and three looking toward the east. And the sea was set upon them above and all their hinder parts were inward.

¹⁴ And each one had four faces. The first face was the face of the cherub and the second face was the face of a man and the third face the face of a lion and the fourth the face of an eagle.

¹⁸ And it was made with cherubim and palm trees and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub. And every cherub had two faces, ¹⁹ so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side, made through all the house all around.

¹⁴ For I will be to Ephraim as a lion and as a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear and go away, I will carry off and there will be none to deliver.

⁵ and up above it the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; concerning which things it is now not the time to speak of them individually.

⁵ And one out of the elders says to me, Do not weep; behold, the Lion who is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome, so as to open the book and its seven seals.

¹⁵ Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold, one wheel was upon the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it. ¹⁶ The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. And those four had one likeness and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.
¹⁷ When they went, they went in their four directions. They did not turn when they went. ¹⁸ As for their rims, they were high and fearful. And those four had their rims full of eyes all around. ¹⁹ And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. And when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.
²⁰ Wherever the spirit was to go, they went; there the spirit was to go. And the wheels were lifted up beside them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels. ²¹ When those went, these went and when those stood, these stood and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

¹³ And I heard the noise of the wings of the living creatures as they touched each other and the noise of the wheels beside them, even the noise of a great rushing.

¹⁰ And as for their appearance, those four had one likeness, as if a wheel have been within a wheel.
¹¹ When they went, they went in their four directions. They did not turn as they went, but to the place where the head looked they followed it. They did not turn as they went.
¹² And their whole body and their backs and their hands and their wings and the wheels, were full of eyes all around, even the wheels that those four had. ¹³ As for the wheels, they were called in my hearing, O wheel.

¹⁶ The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. And those four had one likeness and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.

¹⁸ As for their rims, they were high and fearful. And those four had their rims full of eyes all around.

²⁹ And he carved all the walls of the house all around with carved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, inside and outside.

²⁹ And on the panels that were between the ledges were lions, oxen and cherubim. And upon the ledges there was a pedestal above. And beneath the lions and oxen were wreaths of hanging work.

³¹ And the arches of it were toward the outer court and palm trees were upon the posts of it. And the ascent to it had eight steps.

³⁷ And the posts of it were toward the outer court and palm trees were upon the posts of it, on this side and on that side. And the ascent to it had eight steps.

¹⁸ And it was made with cherubim and palm trees and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub. And every cherub had two faces, ¹⁹ so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side, made through all the house all around. ²⁰ Cherubim and palm trees were made from the ground to above the door. Thus was the wall of the temple.

¹⁷ And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

²⁸ and the altar of burnt offering with all the vessels of it and the large-basin and the base of it.

¹¹ And you will anoint the large-basin and its base and sanctify it.
¹² And you will bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting and will wash them with water.

⁶ He also made ten basins and put five on the right hand and five on the left, to wash in them. They washed in them such things as belonged to the burnt offering, but the sea was for the priests to wash in. ⁷ And he made the ten lamp-stands of gold according to the ordinance concerning them. And he set them in the temple, five on the right hand and five on the left. ⁸ He made also ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made a hundred basins of gold.
⁹ Furthermore he made the court of the priests and the great court and doors for the court and overlaid the doors of them with brass. ¹⁰ And he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south.
¹¹ And Huram made the pots and the shovels and the basins. So Huram made an end of doing the work that he worked for king Solomon in the house of God:

¹ In that day there will be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.

¹⁰ being only fleshly ordinances, (upon the basis of foods, drinks and assorted ceremonial washings), laid upon us till a time of reformation.

²² let us come near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, our hearts having been sprinkled away from an evil conscience and our body, having been fully-washed in clean water.

⁷ But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son is cleansing us from every sin.

¹⁴ And I said to him, My lord, you know.
And he said to me, These are those who are coming out of the great affliction and they have rinsed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

⁶ He also made ten basins and put five on the right hand and five on the left, to wash in them. They washed in them such things as belonged to the burnt offering, but the sea was for the priests to wash in.

¹⁰ And he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south.

⁶ And Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins and half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar.

³² Thus was finished all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting. And the sons of Israel did according to all that Jehovah commanded Moses, so did they.
³³ And they brought the tabernacle to Moses, the tent and all its furniture: its clasps, its boards, it bars and its pillars and it sockets, ³⁴ and the covering of rams' skins dyed red and the covering of certain skins and the veil of the screen, ³⁵ the ark of the testimony and the staves of it and the mercy-seat, ³⁶ the table, all the vessels of it and the showbread, ³⁷ the pure lamp-stand, the lamps of it, even the lamps to be set in order and all the vessels of it and the oil for the light, ³⁸ and the golden altar and the anointing oil and the sweet incense and the screen for the door of the tent, ³⁹ the brazen altar and its grating of brass, its staves and all its vessels, the large-basin and its base, ⁴⁰ the hangings of the court, its pillars and its sockets and the screen for the gate of the court, the cords of it and the pegs of it and all the instruments of the service of the tabernacle, for the tent of meeting, ⁴¹ the finely worked garments for ministering in the holy place and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office.
⁴² According to all that Jehovah commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel did all the work. ⁴³ And Moses saw all the work, and behold, they had done it, as Jehovah had commanded, even so they had done it. And Moses blessed them.

²⁸ And the work of the bases was on this manner: They had panels and there were panels between the ledges.

¹⁴ And they took away the pots and the shovels and the snuffers and the spoons and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered. ¹⁵ And the captain of the guard took away the censors and the basins, what was from gold, in gold and what was from silver, in silver.

⁸ He made also ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left. And he made a hundred basins of gold.

¹¹ And Huram made the pots and the shovels and the basins. So Huram made an end of doing the work that he worked for king Solomon in the house of God: ¹² the two pillars and the bowls and the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars and the two lattice-works to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars, ¹³ and the four hundred pomegranates for the two lattice-works, two rows of pomegranates for each lattice-work to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were upon the pillars. ¹⁴ He also made the bases and he made the large-basins upon the bases, ¹⁵ one sea and the twelve oxen under it. ¹⁶ Also the pots and the shovels and the flesh-hooks and all the vessels of it, Huram his father made of bright brass for king Solomon for the house of Jehovah.

¹⁸ The pots also and the shovels and the snuffers and the basins and the spoons and all the vessels of brass with which they ministered, they took away. ¹⁹ And the cups and the censors and the basins and the pots and the lamp-stands and the spoons and the bowls–what was from gold, in gold and what was from silver, in silver–the captain of the guard took away.

¹⁵ For he fashioned the two pillars of brass, eighteen cubits high apiece. And a line of twelve cubits encompassed each of them around. ¹⁶ And he made two capitals of molten brass to set upon the tops of the pillars. The height of the one capital was five cubits and the height of the other capital was five cubits.
¹⁷ There were nets of checker-work and wreaths of chain-work, for the capitals which were upon the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital and seven for the other capital. ¹⁸ So he made the pillars. And there were two rows all around upon the one lattice-work to cover the capitals that were upon the top of the pillars. And so he did for the other capital. ¹⁹ And the capitals that were upon the top of the pillars in the porch were of lily-work, four cubits. ²⁰ And there were capitals also above upon the two pillars, close by the belly which was beside the lattice-work. And the pomegranates were two hundred, in rows all around upon the other capital.
²¹ And he set up the pillars at the porch of the temple. And he set up the right pillar and called the name of it Jachin and he set up the left pillar and called the name of it Boaz. ²² And upon the top of the pillars was lily-work: so was the work of the pillars finished.

¹² the two pillars and the bowls and the two capitals which were on the top of the pillars and the two lattice-works to cover the two bowls of the capitals that were on the top of the pillars,

²⁰ And there were capitals also above upon the two pillars, close by the belly which was beside the lattice-work. And the pomegranates were two hundred, in rows all around upon the other capital.

²³ And he made the molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass and the height of it was five cubits. And a line of thirty cubits encompassed it all around.

³ And you will make its pots to take away its ashes and its shovels and its basins and its forks and its censors; all the vessels of it you will make of brass.

³ And he made all the vessels of the altar: the pots and the shovels and the basins, the forks and the censors. All the vessels of it he made of brass.

³¹ And Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, Boil the flesh at the door of the tent of meeting and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of consecration, as I commanded, saying, Aaron and his sons will eat it.

¹³ And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a fork of three teeth in his hand, ¹⁴ and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot. All that the fork brought up the priest took with it. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

²⁰ And he said to me, This is the place where the priests will boil the trespass offering and the sin offering and where they will bake the meal offering, that they not bring them forth into the outer court, to sanctify the people.
²¹ Then he brought me forth into the outer court and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court. And behold, in every corner of the court there was a court. ²² In the four corners of the court there were courts enclosed, forty long and thirty broad. These four in the corners were of one measure. ²³ And there was a wall all around in them, all around the four. And boiling-places were made under the walls all around. ²⁴ Then said he to me, These are the boiling-houses, where the ministers of the house will boil the sacrifice of the people.

²¹ Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah will be holy to Jehovah of hosts. And all those who sacrifice will come and take of them and boil in it. And in that day there will be no more a Canaanite in the house of Jehovah of hosts.

¹⁷ And Jacob traveled to Succoth and built for him a house and made booths for his cattle. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

¹⁶ that the waters which came down from above, stood and rose up in one heap a great way off, at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan and those that went down toward the sea of the Arabah, even the Salt Sea, were entirely cut off. And the people passed over right against Jericho.

²⁷ and in the valley, Beth-haram and Beth-nimrah and Succoth and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan and the border of it, to the outermost part of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.

¹² Baana the son of Ahilud, in Taanach and Megiddo and all Beth-shean which is beside Zarethan, beneath Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-meholah, as far as beyond Jokmeam;

¹⁷ The king cast them in the plain of the Jordan, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zeredah.

³ And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates and for the couplings and brass in abundance without weight,

¹⁴ Now, behold, in my affliction I have prepared for the house of Jehovah a hundred thousand talants of gold and a million talants of silver and of brass and iron without weight, for it is in abundance. Also I have prepared timber and stone and you may add to it.

¹⁶ Of the gold, the silver and the brass and the iron, there is no number. Arise and be doing and Jehovah be with you.

¹⁸ Thus Solomon made all these vessels in great abundance. For the weight of the brass could not be found out.

²³ And you will make a table of acacia wood, two cubits the length of it and a cubit the breadth of it and a cubit and a half the height of it. ²⁴ And you will overlay it with pure gold and make for it a crown of gold all around. ²⁵ And you will make to it a border of a handbreadth all around and you will make a golden crown to the border of it all around. ²⁶ And you will make for it four rings of gold and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet of it. ²⁷ The rings will be close by the border, for places for the staves to bear the table. ²⁸ And you will make the staves of acacia wood and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them. ²⁹ And you will make the dishes of it and the spoons of it and the pitchers of it and the bowls of it, with which to pour out, of pure gold you will make them. ³⁰ And you will set upon the table showbread before me always.

¹ And you will make an altar to burn incense upon. You will make it of acacia wood. ² A cubit will be the length of it and a cubit the breadth of it (it will be square) and two cubits will be the height of it. The horns of it will be of one piece with it. ³ And you will overlay it with pure gold, the top of it and the sides of it all around and the horns of it. And you will make to it a crown of gold all around. ⁴ And two golden rings you will make for it under the crown of it, upon the two ribs of it, upon the two sides of it you will make them. And they will be for places for staves with which to bear it. ⁵ And you will make the staves of acacia wood and overlay them with gold.

¹⁰ And he made the table of acacia wood, two cubits the length of it and a cubit the breadth of it and a cubit and a half the height of it. ¹¹ And he overlaid it with pure gold and made for it a crown of gold all around. ¹² And he made to it a border of a handbreadth all around and made a golden crown to the border of it all around. ¹³ And he cast four rings of gold for it and put the rings in the four corners that were on the four feet of it, ¹⁴ close by the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table. ¹⁵ And he made the staves of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to bear the table. ¹⁶ And he made the vessels which were upon the table, the dishes of it and the spoons of it and the bowls of it and the flagons of it, with which to pour out, of pure gold.

²⁵ And he made the altar of incense of acacia wood: a cubit was the length of it and a cubit the breadth of it, square and two cubits was the height of it. The horns of it were of one piece with it. ²⁶ And he overlaid it with pure gold, the top of it and the sides of it all around and the horns of it. And he made to it a crown of gold all around. ²⁷ And he made for it two golden rings under the crown of it, upon the two ribs of it, upon the two sides of it, for places for staves with which to bear it. ²⁸ And he made the staves of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold.
²⁹ And he made the holy anointing oil and the pure incense of sweet spices, after the art of the perfumer.

³⁶ the table, all the vessels of it and the showbread,

³⁸ and the golden altar and the anointing oil and the sweet incense and the screen for the door of the tent,

²² And he put the table in the tent of meeting, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, outside the veil. ²³ And he set the bread in order upon it before Jehovah, as Jehovah commanded Moses.

²⁶ And he put the golden altar in the tent of meeting before the veil,

⁵ And you will take fine flour and bake twelve cakes of it. Two tenth parts of an ephah will be in one cake. ⁶ And you will set them in two rows, six on a row, upon the pure table before Jehovah. ⁷ And you will put pure frankincense upon each row, that it may be on the bread for a memorial, even an offering made by fire to Jehovah. ⁸ Every Sabbath day he will set it in order before Jehovah continually. It is an everlasting covenant from the sons of Israel. ⁹ And it will be for Aaron and his sons. And they will eat it in a holy place, for it is most holy to him of the offerings of Jehovah made by fire by an everlasting statute.

¹⁹ And Solomon made all the vessels that were in the house of God, also the golden altar and the tables on which was the showbread,

³⁹ And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side and two tables on that side, to kill on it the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering.

⁴² And there were four tables for the burnt offering, of hewn stone, a cubit and a half long and a cubit and a half broad and one cubit high, upon which they laid the instruments of which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

²² The altar was of wood, three cubits high and the length of it two cubits and the corners of it and the length of it and the walls of it, were of wood. And he said to me, This is the table that is before Jehovah.

¹⁶ they will enter into my sanctuary and they will come near to my table, to minister to me and they will keep my charge.

¹² But you* profane it, in that you* say, The table of Jehovah is polluted. And the fruit of it, even its food, is contemptible.

²¹ You are not able to drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You are not able to partake of the table of the Lord and of the table of demons.

³¹ And you will make a lamp-stand of pure gold. Of beaten work will the lamp-stand be made, even its base and its shaft, its cups, its knobs and its flowers, will be of one piece with it. ³² And there will be six branches going out of the sides of it, three branches of the lamp-stand out of the one side of it and three branches of the lamp-stand out of the other side of it: ³³ three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knob and a flower and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knob and a flower, so for the six branches going out of the lamp-stand, ³⁴ and in the lamp-stand four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knobs of it and the flowers of it. ³⁵ And a knob under two branches of one piece with it and a knob under two branches of one piece with it and a knob under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the lamp-stand. ³⁶ Their knobs and their branches will be of one piece with it, the whole of it one beaten work of pure gold. ³⁷ And you will make the lamps of it, seven. And they will light the lamps of it, to give light in front of it. ³⁸ And the snuffers of it and the snuff dishes of it, will be of pure gold. ³⁹ It will be made from a talant of pure gold, with all these vessels. ⁴⁰ And see that you make them according to their pattern that has been shown you on the mountain.

¹⁷ And he made the lamp-stand of pure gold. He made the lamp-stand of beaten work, even its base and its shaft, its cups, its knobs and its flowers, were of one piece with it. ¹⁸ And there were six branches going out of the sides of it, three branches of the lamp-stand out of the one side of it and three branches of the lamp-stand out of the other side of it, ¹⁹ three cups made like almond-blossoms in one branch, a knob and a flower and three cups made like almond-blossoms in the other branch, a knob and a flower, so for the six branches going out of the lamp-stand. ²⁰ And in the lamp-stand were four cups made like almond-blossoms, the knobs of it and the flowers of it, ²¹ and a knob under two branches of one piece with it and a knob under two branches of one piece with it and a knob under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of it. ²² Their knobs and their branches were of one piece with it. The whole of it was one beaten work of pure gold. ²³ And he made the lamps of it, seven and the snuffers of it and the snuff dishes of it, of pure gold. ²⁴ He made it of a talant of pure gold and all the vessels of it.

³⁷ the pure lamp-stand, the lamps of it, even the lamps to be set in order and all the vessels of it and the oil for the light,

²⁴ And he put the lamp-stand in the tent of meeting, opposite the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward. ²⁵ And he lit the lamps before Jehovah, as Jehovah commanded Moses.

⁹ And they will take a cloth of blue and cover the lamp-stand of the light and its lamps and its snuffers and its snuff dishes and all the oil vessels of it, with which they minister to it.

⁷ And he made the ten lamp-stands of gold according to the ordinance concerning them. And he set them in the temple, five on the right hand and five on the left.

²⁰ and the lamp-stands with their lamps, to burn according to the ordinance before the oracle, of pure gold,

¹ And the messenger who talked with me came again and awoke me, as a man who is awakened out of his sleep. ² And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, I have seen, and behold, a lamp-stand all of gold, with its bowl upon the top of it and its seven lamps on it. There are seven pipes to each of the lamps, which are upon the top of it, ³ and two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl and the other upon the left side of it.

¹¹ Then I answered and said to him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the lamp-stand and upon the left side of it? ¹² And I answered the second time and said to him, What are these two olive-branches, which are beside the two golden spouts that empty the golden oil out of themselves? ¹³ And he answered me and said, Do you not know what these are? And I said, No, my lord. ¹⁴ Then he said, These are the two anointed ones, who stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

¹⁴ You are the light of the world. A city laying upon a mountain is not able to be hid. ¹⁵ Nor are they burning a lamp and placing it under a peck container, but upon the lamp-stand, and it is shining to all who are in the house. ¹⁶ So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and may glorify your Father, the one in the heavens.

²⁰ The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand and the seven golden lamp-stands is this : the seven stars are the messengers of the seven congregations and the seven lamp-stands are seven congregations.

²⁹ And you will make the dishes of it and the spoons of it and the pitchers of it and the bowls of it, with which to pour out, of pure gold you will make them.

¹² And he will take a censer full of coals of fire from the altar before Jehovah and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small and bring it within the veil.

⁸⁶ The twelve golden spoons, full of incense, weighed ten shekels apiece, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. All the gold of the spoons was a hundred and twenty shekels.

³³ And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.

⁷ And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem. ⁸ And from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceedingly much brass.
⁹ And when Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer, ¹⁰ then Toi sent Joram his son to king David to salute him and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him, for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver and vessels of gold and vessels of brass.
¹¹ These also king David dedicated to Jehovah with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued:

⁷ And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem. ⁸ And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much brass, with which Solomon made the brazen sea and the pillars and the vessels of brass.

¹⁰ he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to salute him and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him (for Hadadezer had wars with Tou) and he had with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.
¹¹ These also king David dedicated to Jehovah, with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations: from Edom and from Moab and from the sons of Ammon and from the Philistines and from Amalek.

²⁶ This Shelomoth and his brothers were over all the treasures of the dedicated things, which David the king and the heads of the fathers, the captains over thousands and hundreds and the captains of the army, had dedicated. ²⁷ They dedicated to repair the house of Jehovah out of the spoil won in battles. ²⁸ And all that Samuel the seer and Saul the son of Kish and Abner the son of Ner and Joab the son of Zeruiah, had dedicated, whoever had dedicated anything, it was under the hand of Shelomoth and of his brothers.

¹¹ Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch of the temple and of the houses of it and of the treasuries of it and of the upper rooms of it and of the inner chambers of it and of the place of the mercy-seat, ¹² and the pattern of all that he had by the Spirit, for the courts of the house of Jehovah and for all the chambers all around, for the treasuries of the house of God and for the treasuries of the dedicated things, ¹³ also for the divisions of the priests and the Levites and for all the work of the service of the house of Jehovah and for all the vessels of service in the house of Jehovah, 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 lamp-stands of gold and for the lamps of it, of gold, by weight for every lamp-stand and for the lamps of it and for the lamp-stands of silver, silver by weight for every lamp-stand and for the lamps of it, according to the use of every lamp-stand, ¹⁶ and the gold by weight for the tables of showbread, for every table and silver for the tables of silver, ¹⁷ and the forks 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, 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 Jehovah.

² Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for the things of gold and the silver for the things of silver and the brass for the things of brass, the iron for the things of iron and wood for the things of wood, onyx stones and stones to be set, stones for inlaid work and of different colors and all manner of precious stones and marble stones in abundance.
³ Moreover also, because I have set my affection on the house of my God, seeing that I have a treasure of my own of gold and silver, I give it to the house of my God over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house, ⁴ even three thousand talants of gold, of the gold of Ophir and seven thousand talants of refined silver, with which to overlay the walls of the houses, ⁵ of gold for the things of gold and of silver for the things of silver and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artisans. Who then offers willingly to consecrate himself this day to Jehovah?
⁶ Then the rulers of the fathers and the rulers of the tribes of Israel and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers over the king's work, offered willingly. ⁷ And they gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talants and ten thousand 128-grain weights and of silver ten thousand talants and of brass eighteen thousand talants and of iron a hundred thousand talants. ⁸ And those with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of Jehovah under the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

¹ Thus all the work that Solomon worked for the house of Jehovah was finished. And Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver and the gold and all the vessels and put them in the treasuries of the house of God.

¹⁵ And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.

⁹ The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house. His hands will also finish it. And you will know that Jehovah of hosts has sent me to you*.
