1Yo, King David told everyone, “Solomon, my son, is the chosen one by God, but he’s still a bit young and the task is huge: the palace ain’t for humans, it’s for the Lord, fr.”

2I’ve gone all out for my God’s house – gold for the gold stuff, silver for the silver bits, brass for the brass, iron for the iron, and wood for the wood; plus onyx and colorful stones, all the bling, and mad marble.

3Since I’m all about my God’s house, I’ve given my own gold and silver, on top of everything else I’ve prepped for the holy place, no cap.

4Like, three thousand talents of gold from Ophir, and seven thousand talents of pure silver to deck out the walls, you feel me?

5Gold for the gold things, silver for the silver things, and all the work made by skilled peeps. So who’s down to serve the Lord today?

6Then the heads of families, tribe leaders, and the king’s crew stepped up and offered their support, all in.

7They gave five thousand talents of gold and ten thousand drams, ten thousand talents of silver, eighteen thousand talents of brass, and a hundred thousand talents of iron for God’s house.

8Those who had precious stones brought them to the Lord’s treasure through Jehiel the Gershonite, no doubt.

9The people were hyped ‘cause they gave willingly, with good vibes in their hearts for the Lord: even King David was lit with joy.

10So David blessed the Lord in front of everyone and said, “Big ups to you, Lord God of Israel our father, forever and ever, periodt.”

11Yo, God, you’re the GOAT with all the greatness, power, glory, and victory vibes. Everything in heaven and earth is yours, and you’re the king, sitting on top of it all.

12All the riches and honor come from you, and you rule over everything; your hands got all the power and strength to make things lit.

13So, like, thanks, God! We’re out here praising your glorious name, for real.

14But honestly, who are we, and what’s our crew, that we can offer you all this? Everything comes from you, and we’re just giving back what’s yours, no cap.

15We’re just passing through, like, total strangers here; our days are just a shadow, and nothing sticks around for long.

16Yo, Lord our God, all this stuff we’re preparing to build you a house for your holy name comes from your hands; it’s all yours, fr.

17I know, God, you check hearts and love when we keep it real. I’ve given all this willingly from my heart, and I see your people here, ready to offer to you, and it’s a whole vibe.

18O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, keep this thought forever in the hearts of your people, and get their hearts ready for you:

19And give my son Solomon a perfect heart to follow your commandments, testimonies, and statutes, and to do all this stuff, including building the palace I set up.

20Then David told everyone, "Yo, bless the Lord your God." And the whole crowd blessed the Lord God of their fathers, bowed their heads, and worshipped the Lord and the king.

21They were out here making sacrifices to the Lord, offering mad burnt offerings the next day, like a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, with drinks and all the extra for Israel, no cap.

22They feasted and vibed before the Lord that day, mad glad. They crowned Solomon, David's son, king again, anointed him to be the boss, and Zadok was the priest.

23Solomon took the throne of the Lord as king instead of his dad David, and he was thriving; all Israel was like, "We got you."

24All the princes, the strong dudes, and David's sons all bowed down to King Solomon, periodt.

25The Lord made Solomon super lit in the eyes of all Israel, giving him royal vibes like no king had before.

26So, David, son of Jesse, reigned over all Israel, straight up.

27He ruled for forty years; seven years in Hebron, and thirty-three years in Jerusalem, that's wild.

28He passed away old and full of days, riches, and honor; and Solomon, his son, took over.

29Now, the deeds of King David, from start to finish, are written in the book of Samuel the seer, Nathan the prophet, and Gad the seer, fr.

30With all his reign, his power, and the times he ruled over Israel and all the other kingdoms, that's the tea.

1Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great: for the palace is not for man, but for the Lord God.

2Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for things to be made of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and the brass for things of brass, the iron for things of iron, and wood for things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, glistering stones, and of divers colours, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance.

3Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house,

4Even three thousand talents of gold, of the gold of Ophir, and seven thousand talents of refined silver, to overlay the walls of the houses withal:

5The gold for things of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artificers. And who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the Lord?

6Then the chief of the fathers and princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers of the king’s work, offered willingly,

7And gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.

8And they with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasure of the house of the Lord, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

9Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the Lord: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

10Wherefore David blessed the Lord before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, Lord God of Israel our father, for ever and ever.

11Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all.

12Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.

13Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.

14But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.

15For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding.

16O Lord our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name cometh of thine hand, and is all thine own.

17I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee.

18O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this for ever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of thy people, and prepare their heart unto thee:

19And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for the which I have made provision.

20And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the Lord your God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the Lord, and the king.

21And they sacrificed sacrifices unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings unto the Lord, on the morrow after that day, even a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel:

22And did eat and drink before the Lord on that day with great gladness. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him unto the Lord to be the chief governor, and Zadok to be priest.

23Then Solomon sat on the throne of the Lord as king instead of David his father, and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him.

24And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves unto Solomon the king.

25And the Lord magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed upon him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

26Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel.

27And the time that he reigned over Israel was forty years; seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.

28And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead.

29Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer,

30With all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.
