1 Chronicles 29:5-13 CSB

the gold for the gold work and the silver for the silver, for all the work to be done by the craftsmen. Now who will volunteer to consecrate himself to the Lord today? ” Then the leaders of the households, the leaders of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and of hundreds,  and the officials in charge of the king’s work  gave willingly. For the service of God’s house they gave 185 tons  of gold and 10,000 gold coins,  , 375 tons  of silver, 675 tons  of bronze, and 4,000 tons  of iron. Whoever had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the Lord’s house under the care of Jehiel  the Gershonite. Then the people rejoiced because of their leaders’ willingness to give, for they had given to the Lord wholeheartedly.  King David also rejoiced greatly. Then David blessed the Lord in the sight of all the assembly. David said, May you be blessed, Lord God of our father Israel, from eternity to eternity. Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the splendor and the majesty, for everything in the heavens and on earth belongs to you. Yours, Lord, is the kingdom, and you are exalted as head over all.  Riches and honor come from you, and you are the ruler of everything.  Power and might are in your hand, and it is in your hand to make great and to give strength to all.  Now therefore, our God, we give you thanks and praise your glorious name.
