1 Chronicles 29:2-4
Evangelical Heritage Version
2 According to all my strength, I have provided these things for the house of my God: gold for the gold items, silver for the silver, bronze for the bronze, iron for the iron, wood for the wooden, onyx stones and settings, antimony,[a] stones of many different colors, every kind of precious stone, and alabaster[b] in abundance.
3 Because of my devotion to the house of my God, from my personal treasure of gold and silver I am also giving for the house of my God in addition to all that I have already provided for this holy house: 4 three thousand talents[c] of gold from Ophir and seven thousand talents of refined silver for overlaying the walls of the structures.
