1 Chronicles 29 · Grade 4
Of Your Own We Have Given
Read and Think
David told the assembly that Solomon was young and the work was great, for the palace was not for man but for Yahweh God. Because he had set his affection on God's house, David gave his own treasure of gold and silver. Then he asked who would offer willingly to consecrate himself today to Yahweh.
The leaders of families, tribes, and the army offered willingly: gold, silver, bronze, iron, and precious stones. The people rejoiced because they gave with a perfect heart, and David rejoiced with great joy (29:9).
David blessed Yahweh before all the assembly. Yours, Yahweh, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty, for all in heaven and earth is yours. He confessed that all things come from God, and the people had only given back what was His. The next day they made Solomon king. David died full of days, riches, and honor.
