16 for the weight of gold for each table with the stacks of bread, and the silver for the silver tables;
17 for the forks, bowls, and cups of pure gold; for the weight of each gold dish and the weight of each silver dish;
18 for the weight of the incense altar made of refined gold; and for the construction of the chariot—with the gold winged creatures spreading their wings and covering the chest containing the Lord’s covenant.
19 All of this the Lord made clear to David directly in a document, including the plan for all of the work.
20 "Be strong and courageous," David said to his son Solomon. "Get to work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, because the Lord God, my God, is with you. He’ll neither let you down nor leave you before all the work for the service of the Lord’s temple is done.
21 Here are the divisions of the priests and the Levites who will perform all the service of God’s temple. For all this work you will have willing and able workers with you to do it. The officials and all the people are ready to follow your instructions."
