4 Behold, aI am building a temple for the name of the Lord my God, to dedicate it to Him, bto burn before Him sweet incense, for cthe continual showbread, for dthe burnt offerings morning and evening, on the eSabbaths, on the New Moons, and on the2 set feasts of the Lord our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.
5 And the temple which I build will be great, for aour God is greater than all gods.
6 aBut who is able to build Him a temple, since heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him? Who am I then, that I should build Him a temple, except to burn sacrifice before Him?
7 Therefore send me at once a man skillful to work in gold and silver, in bronze and iron, in purple and crimson and blue, who has skill to engrave with the skillful men who are with me in Judah and Jerusalem, awhom David my father provided.
8 aAlso send me cedar and cypress and algum logs from Lebanon, for I know that your servants have skill to cut timber in Lebanon; and indeed my servants will be with your servants,
