1 Chronicles 29:8-16 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

8. And they with whom precious stones were found gave them to the treasury of the house of the LORD, by the hand of Jehiel the Gershonite.

9. Then the people rejoiced, for they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.

10. Therefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be you, LORD God of Israel our father, forever and ever.

11. Yours, O LORD, 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 yours; yours is the kingdom, O LORD, and you are exalted as head above all.

12. Both riches and honor come from you, and you reign over all; and in your hand is power and might; and in your hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all.

13. Now therefore, our God, we thank you, and praise your glorious name.

14. But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly as this? for all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.

15. For we are strangers before you, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no abiding.

16. O LORD our God, all this abundance that we have prepared to build you a house for your holy name comes from your hand, and is all your own.
