The XXIX. Chapter.
A And Dauid gathered vnto Ierusalem
all the rulers of Israel, namely þe; prynces
of the trybes, the rulers ouer the
courses, which wayted vpon the kynge, the
captaynes ouer thousandes and ouer hundreds,
the rulers ouer the goodes and catell
of the kynge and of his sonnes, with the ch&abar;berlaines,
warryers and valeaunt men. And
Dauid the kynge stode vp vpon his fete, and
saide: Heare me my brethren and my people:
note I was mynded to buylde an house, where
the Arke of the couenaunt of the LORDE
shulde rest, and a fote stole for the fete of
oure God, and prepared my selfe for to buylde,
But God sayde vnto me: note Thou shalt not
buylde an house vnto my name, for thou art
a man of warre, and hast shed bloude.
B noteNow hath the LORDE God of Israel
chosen me out of all my fathers house, þt; I
shulde be kynge ouer Israel: for note Iuda hath
he chosen to be the Prynce, and in the house
of Iuda amonge my fathers children hath
he had pleasure vnto me, to make me kynge
ouer all Israel: and am&obar;ge all my sonnes (for
the LORDE hath geuen me many sonnes) he
hath chosen Salomon my sonne, to syt vpon
the seate of the kyngdome of the LORDE ouer
Israel, and hath sayde vnto me: note Salomon
thy sonne shall buylde me an house and
my courtes: for I haue chosen him to be my
sonne, ∧ I wil be his father, ∧ wyll stablishe
his kyngdome for euer, yf he be constant to
do after my commaundementes and lawes,
as it is this daye. Now in the sight of all Israel
the congregacion of the LORDE, and in
the eares of oure God, se that ye obserue and
seke all the commaundem&ebar;tes of the LORDE
yo&highr; God, that ye maye possesse this good londe
and that ye and youre children maie haue
þe; inheritaunce therof for euer.
C And thou my sonne Salom&obar;, knowe thou
the God of thy father, and serue him with
all thy hert, and with the desyre of thy soule:
for the LORDE searcheth all hertes, and vnderstondeth
all thoughtes ∧ ymaginacions
Yf thou seke him, thou shalt fynde him: but
yf thou forsake him, he shall refuse the for euer.
Take hede now, for the LORDE hath chosen
the, to buylde an house to be the S&abar;ctuary:
be stronge, and make it.
And Dauid gaue Salomon his sonne a
patrone of the Porche, and of his house, and
of the celles and perlers and ynnermer ch&abar;bers,
and of the house of the Mercyseate, ∧
of all that he had in his mynde, namely of
the courte of the LORDES house, and of all
the oratories rounde aboute the treasures in
þe; house of God, and of the treasures of soch
thinges as were halowed, of the ordinaunces
of the prestes, and Leuites, and of all þe;
busynesse of the offyces in the house of the
LORDE.
D Golde (gaue he him) after þe; golde weight
for all maner of vessels of euery offyce, and
all siluer ornamentes after the weight for all
maner of vessell of euery offyce: and weight
for the golden candilstickes and golden lampes,
for euery candilstycke and his lampes
his weight: likewyse for the siluer candilstickes
gaue he the weight to the candilsticke ∧
his lampes, acordynge as was requyred for
euery candilstycke. He gaue golde also for þe;
tables of the shewbred, for euery table his
weight: and syluer lykewise for the syluer tables.
And pure golde for the fleshokes, basens
and censors: and for the golden cuppes,
vnto euery cuppe his weight: and for the siluer
cuppes, vnto euery cuppe his weighte:
and for the altare of incense his weighte, of
the most pure golde.
E And a patrone of the charett of the golden
Cherubins, that they mighte sprede out
them selues, and couer the Arke of the couenaunt
of the LORDE. All this is geuen me in
wrytinge of the hande of the LORDE, to make
me vnderstonde all the workes of the patrone.
And Dauid sayde vnto Salom&obar; his sonne:
Be thou manly and stronge, and make it,
feare not, and be not fayntharted, the LORDE
God my God shal be with the, and shall
not withdrawe his hande, ner fayle the, tyll
thou haue fynished euery worke for the seruyce
in the house of the LORDE. Beholde, the
courses of the prestes and Leuites to all the
offyces in the house of God are with the in
euery worke, and are willinge, and haue wisdome
to all the offyces: and so haue the prynces
and all the people for euery thinge that
thou hast to do.
