18 And for the altar of incense, pure gold by weight, and gold for the pattern of [a]the chariot of the Cherubs that spread themselves, and covered the Ark of the covenant of the Lord:
19 All, said he, by writing sent to me [b]by the hand of the Lord, which made me understand all the workmanship of the pattern.
20 And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of a valiant courage, and do it: fear not, nor be afraid: for the Lord God, even my God is with thee: he will not leave thee, nor forsake thee, till thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.
