¹¹ Now, my son, ^(A)the Lord be with you that you may be successful, and build the house of the Lord your God just as He has spoken concerning you. ^12 (B)Only the Lord give you discretion and understanding, and put you in charge of Israel, so that you may ^(C)keep the Law of the Lord your God. ^13 (D)Then you will prosper, if you are careful to ^[a]follow the statutes and the ordinances which the Lord commanded Moses concerning Israel. ^(E)Be strong and courageous, do not fear nor be dismayed. ¹⁴ Now behold, ^[b]with great pains I have prepared for the house of the Lord ^(F)a hundred thousand ^[c]talents of gold and a million talents of silver, and ^(G)bronze and iron beyond measure, for ^[d]they are in great quantity; I have also prepared timber and stone, and you may add to that. ¹⁵ Moreover there are many workmen with you, stonecutters, masons of stone, and carpenters; and all of them are skillful in every kind of work. ¹⁶ Of the gold, silver, bronze, and iron there is no limit. Arise and work, and may ^(H)the Lord be with you.”
