1 Chronicles 29:6-14

[6] Then the chief  of the fathers  and princes  of the tribes  of Israel,  and the captains  of thousands  and of hundreds,  with the rulers  of the king's  work,  offered willingly,  [7] And gave  for the service  of the house  of God  of gold  five  thousand  talents  and ten thousand  drams,  and of silver  ten  thousand  talents,  and of brass  eighteen  thousand  talents,  and one hundred  thousand  talents  of iron.  [8] And they with whom precious stones  were found  gave  them to the treasure  of the house  of the LORD,  by the hand  of Jehiel  the Gershonite.  [9] Then the people  rejoiced,  for that they offered willingly,  because with perfect  heart  they offered willingly  to the LORD:  and David  the king  also rejoiced  with great  joy.  [10] Wherefore David  blessed  the LORD  before  all the congregation:  and David  said,  Blessed  be thou, LORD  God  of Israel  our father,  for  ever  [11] is the greatness,  and the power,  and the glory,  and the victory,  and the majesty:  for all that is in the heaven  and in the earth  is thine; thine is the kingdom,  as head  above all. [12] Both riches  and honour  come of thee,  and thou reignest  over all; and in thine hand  is power  and might;  and in thine hand  it is to make great,  and to give strength  [13] Now therefore, our God,  we thank  thee, and praise  thy glorious  name.  [14] But who am I, and what is my people,  that we should be  able  to offer so willingly  after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own  have we given  thee.
