	David`s Plans for the Temple...
1.	And Dawid assembled at Yerushalayim all the rulers of Yisra`el: the rulers of the tribes and the commanders of the divisions who served the sovereign, the commanders over thousands and commanders over hundreds, and the heads over all the property and possessions of the sovereign and of his sons, with the officials, the mighty men, and all the mighty brave men.
2.	Then Sovereign Dawid rose to his feet and said, 'Hear me, my brothers and my people: I had it in my heart to build a house of rest for the ark of the covenant of YHWH, and for the footstool of our Elohim, and had made preparations to build it.
3.	'But Elohim said to me, 'You do not build a house for My Name, because you have been a man of battle and have shed blood.'
4.	'Yet YHWH Elohim of Yisra'el chose me above all the house of my father to be sovereign over Yisra'el forever, for He has chosen Yehudah to be the ruler. And of the house of Yehudah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father, He was pleased with me to make me reign over all Yisra'el.
5.	'And of all my sons - for YHWH has given me many sons - He has chosen my son Shelomoh to sit on the throne of the reign of YHWH over Yisra'el,
6.	and said to me, 'Shelomoh your son is the one to build My house and My courtyards, for I have chosen him to be My son, and I Myself am a Father to him.
7.	'And I shall establish his reign forever, if he is strong to do My commands and My right-rulings, as it is this day.'
8.	'And now, before the eyes of all Yisra'el, the assembly of YHWH, and in the hearing of our Elohim, guard and seek all the commands of YHWH your Elohim, so that you possess this good land, and leave it as an inheritance for your children after you forever.
9.	'As for you, my son Shelomoh, know the Elohim of your father, and serve Him with a perfect heart and with a pleasing life, for YHWH searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you do seek Him, He is found by you; but if you forsake Him, He rejects you forever.
10.	'See, now, for YHWH has chosen you to build a house for the set-apart place. Be strong, and do it.'
11.	And Dawid gave his son Shelomoh the plans for the porch, and its houses, and its treasuries, and its upper rooms, and its inner rooms, and the place of atonement;
12.	and the plans for all that he had by the Spirit, of the courtyards of the House of YHWH, and of all the rooms all around, and of the treasuries of the House of Elohim, and of the treasuries for the set-apart gifts;
13.	and for the divisions of the priests and the Lewites, and for all the work of the service of the House of YHWH, and for all the vessels of service in the House of YHWH;
14.	even gold by weight for utensils of gold, for all utensils used in every kind of service; for silver for all utensils of silver by weight, for all utensils used in every kind of service;
15.	and by weight for the lampstands of gold, and their lamps of gold, by weight for each lampstand and its lamps; and for the lampstands of silver by weight, for the lampstand and its lamps, according to the use of each lampstand;
16.	and by weight gold for the tables of the showbread, for each table, and silver for the tables of silver;
17.	and clean gold for the forks, and the basins, and the jars of clean gold, and the golden bowls, by weight for every bowl; and for the silver bowls, silver by weight for every bowl;
18.	and refined gold by weight for the altar of incense, and for the pattern of the chariot of the gold keruhim, spreading out their wings and covering over the ark of the covenant of YHWH.
19.	' YHWH made me understand all this in writing, by His hand upon me, all the works of these plans.'
20.	And Dawid said to his son Shelomoh, 'Be strong and courageous, and do it. Do not fear nor be afraid, for YHWH Elohim, my Elohim, is with you. He shall not leave you nor forsake you, until you have completed all the work for the service of the House of YHWH.
21.	'And see, the divisions of the priests and the Lewites for all the service of the House of Elohim, and every volunteer of any skill is with you in all work, for every kind of service. And the rulers and all the people are entirely at your command.'
