1 Chronicles 29:10-19
WEB · Bible Passage
Bible Text
[10] Therefore David blessed Yahweh before all the assembly; and David said, You are blessed, Yahweh, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever. [11] Yours, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, Yahweh, and you are exalted as head above all. [12] Both riches and honor come of you, and you rule over all; and in your hand is power and might; and it is in your hand to make great, and to give strength to all. [13] Now therefore, our God, we thank you, and praise your glorious name. [14] But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly as this? For all things come of you, and of your own have we given you. [15] For we are strangers before you, and foreigners, as all our fathers were: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no abiding. [16] Yahweh our God, all this store that we have prepared to build you a house for your holy name comes of your hand, and is all your own. [17] I know also, my God, that you try the heart, and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy your people, that are present here, offer willingly to you. [18] Yahweh, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers, keep this forever in the imagination of the thoughts of the heart of your people, and prepare their heart to you; [19] and give to Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision.
