² I have ·done my best [made every effort; ^Laccording to all my strength] to prepare for building the ·Temple [^Lhouse] of my God. I have given gold for the things made of gold and silver for the things made of silver. I have given bronze for the things made of bronze and iron for the things made of iron. I have given wood for the things made of wood and onyx for the settings. I have given turquoise gems of many different colors, ·valuable [precious] stones, and ·white marble [alabaster]. I have given all these things in ·abundance [great quantities]. ³ I have already given this for the ·Temple [^Lhouse], but because of my ·devotion to [commitment to; delight in] the ·Temple [^Lhouse] of my God, I am also giving my own treasures of gold and silver. ⁴ I am giving ·about two hundred twenty thousand pounds [^Lthree thousand talents] of gold from Ophir and ·about five hundred twenty thousand pounds [^Lseven thousand talents] of ·pure [refined] silver. They will be used to ·cover [overlay] the walls of the buildings
