1 Chronicles 22:3-5

Expanded Bible

³ David supplied a large amount of iron to be used for making nails and ·hinges [clamps; braces; fittings] for the gate doors. He also supplied more bronze than could be weighed, ⁴ and he supplied more cedar logs than could be counted. ·Much of the [Great quantities of] cedar had been brought to David by the people from Sidon and Tyre.

⁵ David said, “We should build a ·great [exceedingly magnificent] ·Temple [^Lhouse] for the Lord, which will be famous everywhere for its ·greatness and beauty [splendor; gloriousness]. But my son Solomon is young and ·inexperienced [^Ltender], so I will make preparations for it.” So David got many of the materials ready before he died.
