Chapter 28
And
David
assembled
all
the
princes
of
Israel,
the
princes
of
the
tribes,
and
the
captains
of
the
companies
that
ministered
to
the
king
by
course,
and
the
captains
over
the
thousands,
and
captains
over
the
hundreds,
and
the
stewards
over
all
the
substance
and
possession
of
the
king,
and
of
his
sons,
with
the
officers,
and
with
the
mighty
men,
and
with
all
the
valiant
men,
unto
Jerusalem.
2
Then
David
the
king
stood
up
upon
his
feet,
and
said,
Hear
me,
my
brethren,
and
my
people:
As
for
me,
I
had
in
mine
heart
to
build
an
house
of
rest
for
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
Lord,
and
for
the
footstool
of
our
God,
and
had
made
ready
for
the
building:
3
But
God
said
unto
me,
Thou
shalt
not
build
an
house
for
my
name,
because
thou
hast
been
a
man
of
war,
and
hast
shed
blood.
4
Howbeit
the
Lord
God
of
Israel
chose
me
before
all
the
house
of
my
father
to
be
king
over
Israel
for
ever:
for
he
hath
chosen
Judah
to
be
the
ruler;
and
of
the
house
of
Judah,
the
house
of
my
father;
and
among
the
sons
of
my
father
he
liked
me
to
make
me
king
over
all
Israel:
5
And
of
all
my
sons,
(for
the
Lord
hath
given
me
many
sons,)
he
hath
chosen
Solomon
my
son
to
sit
upon
the
throne
of
the
kingdom
of
the
Lord
over
Israel.
6
And
he
said
unto
me,
Solomon
thy
son,
he
shall
build
my
house
and
my
courts:
for
I
have
chosen
him
to
be
my
son,
and
I
will
be
his
father.
7
Moreover
I
will
establish
his
kingdom
for
ever,
if
he
be
constant
to
do
my
commandments
and
my
judgments,
as
at
this
day.
8
Now
therefore
in
the
sight
of
all
Israel
the
congregation
of
the
Lord,
and
in
the
audience
of
our
God,
keep
and
seek
for
all
the
commandments
of
the
Lord
your
God:
that
ye
may
possess
this
good
land,
and
leave
it
for
an
inheritance
for
your
children
after
you
for
ever.
9
And
thou,
Solomon
my
son,
know
thou
the
God
of
thy
father,
and
serve
him
with
a
perfect
heart
and
with
a
willing
mind:
for
the
Lord
searcheth
all
hearts,
and
understandeth
all
the
imaginations
of
the
thoughts:
if
thou
seek
him,
he
will
be
found
of
thee;
but
if
thou
forsake
him,
he
will
cast
thee
off
for
ever.
10
Take
heed
now;
for
the
Lord
hath
chosen
thee
to
build
an
house
for
the
sanctuary:
be
strong,
and
do
it.
11
Then
David
gave
to
Solomon
his
son
the
pattern
of
the
porch,
and
of
the
houses
thereof,
and
of
the
treasuries
thereof,
and
of
the
upper
chambers
thereof,
and
of
the
inner
parlours
thereof,
and
of
the
place
of
the
mercy
seat,
12
And
the
pattern
of
all
that
he
had
by
the
spirit,
of
the
courts
of
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
of
all
the
chambers
round
about,
of
the
treasuries
of
the
house
of
God,
and
of
the
treasuries
of
the
dedicated
things:
13
Also
for
the
courses
of
the
priests
and
the
Levites,
and
for
all
the
work
of
the
service
of
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
for
all
the
vessels
of
service
in
the
house
of
the
Lord.
14
He
gave
of
gold
by
weight
for
things
of
gold,
for
all
instruments
of
all
manner
of
service;
silver
also
for
all
instruments
of
silver
by
weight,
for
all
instruments
of
every
kind
of
service:
15
Even
the
weight
for
the
candlesticks
of
gold,
and
for
their
lamps
of
gold,
by
weight
for
every
candlestick,
and
for
the
lamps
thereof:
and
for
the
candlesticks
of
silver
by
weight,
both
for
the
candlestick,
and
also
for
the
lamps
thereof,
according
to
the
use
of
every
candlestick.
16
And
by
weight
he
gave
gold
for
the
tables
of
shewbread,
for
every
table;
and
likewise
silver
for
the
tables
of
silver:
17
Also
pure
gold
for
the
fleshhooks,
and
the
bowls,
and
the
cups:
and
for
the
golden
basons
he
gave
gold
by
weight
for
every
bason;
and
likewise
silver
by
weight
for
every
bason
of
silver:
18
And
for
the
altar
of
incense
refined
gold
by
weight;
and
gold
for
the
pattern
of
the
chariot
of
the
cherubims,
that
spread
out
their
wings,
and
covered
the
ark
of
the
covenant
of
the
Lord.
19
All
this,
said
David,
the
Lord
made
me
understand
in
writing
by
his
hand
upon
me,
even
all
the
works
of
this
pattern.
20
And
David
said
to
Solomon
his
son,
Be
strong
and
of
good
courage,
and
do
it:
fear
not,
nor
be
dismayed:
for
the
Lord
God,
even
my
God,
will
be
with
thee;
he
will
not
fail
thee,
nor
forsake
thee,
until
thou
hast
finished
all
the
work
for
the
service
of
the
house
of
the
Lord.
21
And,
behold,
the
courses
of
the
priests
and
the
Levites,
even
they
shall
be
with
thee
for
all
the
service
of
the
house
of
God:
and
there
shall
be
with
thee
for
all
manner
of
workmanship
every
willing
skilful
man,
for
any
manner
of
service:
also
the
princes
and
all
the
people
will
be
wholly
at
thy
commandment.
