1 Chronicles 22:12-14
New English Translation
12 Only may the Lord give you insight and understanding when he places you in charge of Israel, so you may obey[a] the law of the Lord your God. 13 Then you will succeed, if you carefully obey the rules and regulations which the Lord ordered Moses to give to Israel.[b] Be strong and brave! Don’t be afraid and don’t panic![c] 14 Now, look, I have made every effort to supply what is needed to build the Lord’s temple.[d] I have stored up 100,000 talents[e] of gold, 1,000,000 talents[f] of silver, and so much bronze and iron it cannot be weighed, as well as wood and stones. Feel free to add more!
