1 Chronicles 29:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 King David said to all the Israelites who were gathered together, "God chose my son Solomon. Solomon is young and does not know all that he needs to do this work. But the work is very important. This house isn't for people; this house is for the Lord God.
2 I have done my best to make plans to build my God's Temple. I have given gold for the things made of gold. I have given silver for the things made of silver. I have given bronze for the things made of bronze. I have given iron for the things made of iron. I have given wood for the things made of wood. I have also given onyx stones for the settings, mosaic tiles, all kinds of valuable stones in many different colors, and white marble stones. I have given many of these things for the building of the Lord's Temple.
3 I am making a special gift of gold and silver things for my God's Temple. I am doing this because I really want the Temple of my God to be built. I am giving all these things to build this holy Temple.
4 I have given 110 tons of pure gold from Ophir. I have given 263 tons of pure silver. The silver is for covering the walls of the buildings in the Temple.
5 I have given gold and silver for all the things made of gold and silver. I have given gold and silver so that skilled men can make all different kinds of things for the Temple. Now, how many of you Israelites are ready to give yourselves to the Lord today?"
6 The family leaders, the leaders of the tribes of Israel, the generals, the captains, and the officials responsible for the king's work, were all ready and gave their valuable things.
7 These are the things they gave for God's house: 190 tons of gold; 375 tons of silver; 675 tons of bronze; and 3750 tons of iron.
8 People who had valuable stones gave them to the Lord's Temple. Jehiel took care of the valuable stones. He was from the Gershon family.
9 The people were very happy because their leaders were happy to give so much. The leaders were happy to give freely from good hearts. King David was also very happy.
10 Then David praised the Lord in front of all of the people who were gathered together. David said: "Lord, the God of Israel, our Father, may you be praised forever and ever!
11 Greatness, power, glory, victory, and honor belong to you, because everything in heaven and on earth belongs to you! The kingdom belongs to you, Lord! You are the Head, the Ruler over everything.
12 Riches and honor come from you. You rule everything. You have the power and strength in your hand! And in your hand is the power to make anyone great and powerful!
13 Now, our God, we thank you, and we praise your glorious name!
14 All these things didn't come from me and my people. All these things come from you. We are only giving back to you things that came from you.
15 We are only strangers traveling through this world like our ancestors. Our time on earth is like a passing shadow, and we cannot stop it.
16 Lord our God, we gathered all these things to build your Temple. We build it to honor your name. But all these things have come from you. Everything belongs to you.
17 My God, I know that you test people, and that you are happy when people do what is right. I gladly give you all these things with a pure, honest heart. I see your people gathered here, and I see that they are happy about giving these things to you.
18 Lord, you are the God of our ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Please help your people plan the right things. Help them be loyal and true to you.
19 And help my son Solomon be true to you. Help him always obey your commands, laws, and rules. Help Solomon to do these things. and help him build this capital city that I have planned."
20 Then David said to all the group of people gathered together, "Now give praise to the Lord your God." So all the people gave praise to the Lord God, the God their ancestors worshiped. They bowed to the ground to give honor to the Lord and to the king.
21 The next day the people made sacrifices to the Lord. They offered burnt offerings to him. They offered 1000 bulls, 1000 rams, 1000 lambs, and the drink offerings that go with them. They offered many sacrifices for all the Israelites.
22 That day the people were very happy as they ate and drank there together with the Lord. And they made David's son Solomon king the second time. They anointed Solomon to be king, and they anointed Zadok to be priest. They did this in the place where the Lord was.
23 Then Solomon sat on the Lord's throne as king. Solomon took his father's place. He was very successful. All the Israelites obeyed him.
24 All the leaders, soldiers, and all of King David's sons accepted Solomon as king and obeyed him.
25 The Lord made Solomon very great. All the Israelites knew that the Lord was making him great. He gave Solomon the honor that a king should have. No king in Israel before Solomon had such honor.
26 David son of Jesse was king over all Israel for 40 years. He was king in the city of Hebron for seven years. Then he was king in the city of Jerusalem for 33 years.
27 vnumber="27">
28 David died when he was old. He had lived a good, long life and had many riches and honors. His son Solomon became the new king after him.
29 The things that King David did, from beginning to end, are in the books written by Samuel the seer, Nathan the prophet, and Gad the seer.
30 Those writings tell all about what David did as king of Israel. They tell about David's power and what happened to him and to Israel and to all the kingdoms around them.
1 Furthermore David H1732 the king H4428 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto all H3605 L-CMS the congregation H6951 , Solomon H8010 MMS my son H1121 , whom alone H259 MMS God H430 EDP hath chosen H977 , is yet young H5288 and tender H7390 , and the work H4399 is great H1419 AFS : for H3588 CONJ the palace H1002 is not H3808 NADV for man H120 L-CMS , but H3588 CONJ for the LORD H3068 L-EDS God H430 NAME-4MP .
2 Now I have prepared H3559 with all H3605 my might H3581 CMS-1MS for the house H1004 of my God H430 the gold H2091 for things to be made of gold H2091 LD-NMS , and the silver H3701 for things of silver H3701 LD-NMS , and the brass H5178 for things of brass H5178 , the iron H1270 for things of iron H1270 , and wood H6086 for things of wood H6086 ; onyx H7718 stones H68 GFS , and stones to be set H4394 , glistering H6320 stones H68 GFS , and of divers colors H7553 , and all manner H3605 W-CMS of precious H3368 stones H68 GFS , and marble H7893 stones H68 GFS in abundance H7230 .
3 Moreover H5750 W-ADV , because I have set my affection H7521 to the house H1004 B-CMS of my God H430 , I have H3426 ADV of mine own proper good H5459 , of gold H2091 NMS and silver H3701 , which I have given H5414 VQQ1MS to the house H1004 of my God H430 , over H4605 and above all H3605 M-CMS that I have prepared H3559 for the holy H6944 house H1004 ,
4 Even three H7969 BMS thousand H505 MMP talents H3603 of gold H2091 NMS , of the gold H2091 of Ophir H211 LFS , and seven H7651 W-BMS thousand H505 MMP talents H3603 CFS of refined H2212 silver H3701 NMS , to overlay H2902 the walls H7023 of the houses H1004 withal :
5 The gold H2091 LD-NMS for things of gold H2091 LD-NMS , and the silver H3701 for things of silver H3701 LD-NMS , and for all manner H3605 of work H4399 to be made by the hands H3027 B-CFS of artificers H2796 . And who H4310 W-IPRO then is willing H5068 to consecrate his service H3027 CFS-3MS this day H3117 D-AMS unto the LORD H3068 ?
6 Then the chief H8269 CMP of the fathers H1 and princes H8269 of the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 , and the captains H8269 of thousands H505 and of hundreds H3967 , with the rulers H8269 of the king H4428 \'s work H4399 , offered willingly H5068 ,
7 And gave H5414 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 CMS of God H430 D-EDP of gold H2091 NMS five H2568 thousand H505 MMP talents H3603 and ten thousand H7239 MFS drams H150 , and of silver H3701 W-CMS ten H6235 thousand H505 MMP talents H3603 , and of brass H5178 eighteen thousand H7239 MFS talents H3603 , and one hundred H3967 thousand H505 MMP talents H3603 of iron H1270 W-NMS .
8 And they with H854 PREP-3MS whom precious stones H68 NFP were found H4672 gave H5414 them to the treasure H214 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , by H5921 PREP the hand H3027 CFS of Jehiel H3171 the Gershonite H1649 .
9 Then the people H5971 rejoiced H8055 , for H5921 PREP that they offered willingly H5068 , because H3588 CONJ with perfect H8003 heart H3820 they offered willingly H5068 to the LORD H3068 L-EDS : and David H1732 the king H4428 D-NMS also H1571 W-CONJ rejoiced H8055 with great H1419 AFS joy H8057 .
10 Wherefore David H1732 blessed H1288 W-VNY3MS the LORD H3068 EDS before H5869 all H3605 NMS the congregation H6951 : and David H1732 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Blessed H1288 W-VNY3MS be thou H859 PPRO-2MS , LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 our father H1 , forever H5769 M-NMS and ever H5704 W-PREP .
11 Thine , O LORD H3068 EDS , is the greatness H1420 , and the power H1369 , and the glory H8597 , and the victory H5331 , and the majesty H1935 : for H3588 CONJ all H3605 CONJ that is in the heaven H8064 BD-NMP and in the earth H776 is thine ; thine is the kingdom H4467 , O LORD H3068 EDS , and thou art exalted H4984 as head H7218 above all H3605 .

13 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore , our God H430 , we H587 PPRO-1MP thank H3034 thee , and praise H1984 thy glorious H8597 name H8034 .
14 But H3588 CONJ who H4310 W-IPRO am I H589 PPRO-1MS , and what H4310 W-IPRO is my people H5971 , that H3588 CONJ we should be able H6113 to offer so willingly H5068 after this sort H2063 ? for H3588 CONJ all things H3605 come of H4480 PREP-2MS thee , and of thine own H3027 have we given H5414 thee .
15 For H3588 CONJ we H587 PPRO-1MP are strangers H1616 before H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee , and sojourners H8453 , as were all H3605 our fathers H1 : our days H3117 CMP-1MP on H5921 PREP the earth H776 D-GFS are as a shadow H6738 KD-NMS , and there is none H369 W-NPAR abiding H4723 .
16 O LORD H3068 EDS our God H430 , all H3605 CONJ this H2088 D-PMS store H1995 that H834 RPRO we have prepared H3559 to build H1129 thee a house H1004 for thine holy H6944 name H8034 cometh of thine hand H3027 M-CFS-2MS , and is all H3605 thine own .
17 I know H3045 also , my God H430 , that H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS triest H974 the heart H3824 NMS , and hast pleasure H7521 in uprightness H3476 . As for me H589 PPRO-1MS , in the uprightness H4339 W-NMP of mine heart H3824 NMS I have willingly offered H5068 all H3605 CMS these things H428 PMP : and now H6258 W-ADV have I seen H7200 VQQ1MS with joy H8057 thy people H5971 , which are present H4672 here H6311 , to offer willingly H5068 unto thee .
18 O LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of Abraham H85 , Isaac H3327 , and of Israel H3478 , our fathers H1 , keep H8104 this H2063 DPRO-3FS forever H5769 L-NMS in the imagination H3336 of the thoughts H4284 CFP of the heart H3824 of thy people H5971 , and prepare H3559 their heart H3824 unto H413 thee :
19 And give H5414 unto Solomon H8010 my son H1121 a perfect H8003 heart H3824 NMS , to keep H8104 thy commandments H4687 , thy testimonies H5715 , and thy statutes H2706 , and to do H6213 all H3605 these things , and to build H1129 the palace H1002 , for the which H834 RPRO I have made provision H3559 .
20 And David H1732 said H559 W-VQY3MS to all H3605 L-CMS the congregation H6951 , Now H4994 IJEC bless H1288 the LORD H3068 EDS your God H430 . And all H3605 the congregation H6951 blessed H1288 the LORD H3068 L-EDS God H430 CDP of their fathers H1 , and bowed down their heads H6915 , and worshiped H7812 the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and the king H4428 .
21 And they sacrificed H2076 sacrifices H2077 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and offered H5927 burnt offerings H5930 CFP unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , on the morrow H4283 after that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 D-AMS , even a thousand H505 W-BMS bullocks H6499 , a thousand H505 W-BMS rams H352 NMP , and a thousand H505 W-BMS lambs H3532 , with their drink offerings H5262 , and sacrifices H2077 in abundance H7230 LD-NMS for all H3605 L-CMS Israel H3478 LMS :
22 And did eat H398 W-VQY3MP and drink H8354 before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS on that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS with great H1419 AFS gladness H8057 B-NFS . And they made H4427 Solomon H8010 the son H1121 CMS of David H1732 king the second time H8145 CFS , and anointed H4886 him unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS to be the chief governor H5057 , and Zadok H6659 to be priest H3548 .
23 Then Solomon H8010 MMS sat H3427 W-VQY3MS on H5921 PREP the throne H3678 of the LORD H3068 EDS as king H4428 L-CMS instead of H8478 PREP David H1732 his father H1 CMS-3MS , and prospered H6743 ; and all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 LMS obeyed H8085 him .
24 And all H3605 NMS the princes H8269 , and the mighty men H1368 , and all H3605 NMS the sons H1121 likewise H1571 W-CONJ of king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 , submitted H5414 themselves unto H8478 NMS Solomon H8010 MMS the king H4428 .
25 And the LORD H3068 EDS magnified H1431 Solomon H8010 MMS exceedingly H4605 in the sight H5869 of all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 , and bestowed H5414 W-VQQ3MS upon H5921 PREP-3MS him such royal H4438 CFP majesty H1935 CMS as H834 RPRO had not H3808 ADV been H1961 VQQ3MS on H5921 PREP-3MS any H3605 NMS king H4428 NMS before H6440 L-CMP-3MS him in H5921 PREP-3MS Israel H3478 LMS .
26 Thus David H1732 the son H1121 of Jesse H3448 reigned H4427 over H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 LMS .
27 And the time H3117 that H834 RPRO he reigned H4427 over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 was forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS ; seven H7651 MFS years H8141 NFP reigned H4427 he in Hebron H2275 B-EFS , and thirty H7970 MMP and three H7969 years reigned H4427 he in Jerusalem H3389 .
28 And he died H4191 W-VQY3MS in a good old age H7872 , full H7649 of days H3117 NMP , riches H6239 , and honor H3519 : and Solomon H8010 MMS his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
29 Now the acts H1697 of David H1732 the king H4428 D-NMS , first H7223 and last H314 , behold H2009 , they are written H3789 in H5921 PREP the book H1697 CMP of Samuel H8050 the seer H7203 , and in H5921 PREP the book H1697 CMP of Nathan H5416 the prophet H5030 , and in H5921 PREP the book H1697 CMP of Gad H1410 the seer H2374 ,
30 With H5973 PREP all H3605 NMS his reign H4438 CFP-3MS and his might H1369 , and the times H6256 that H834 RPRO went over H5674 VQQ3MP him , and over H5921 PREP-3MS Israel H3478 , and over H5921 PREP-3MS all H3605 NMS the kingdoms H4467 of the countries H776 .
