8And those who had stones of great price gave them to the store of the house of the Lord, under the care of Jehiel the Gershonite.
9Then the people were glad because their offerings were freely given, for with a true heart they freely gave what they had to the Lord; and David the king was full of joy.
10So David gave praise to the Lord before all the people; and David said, Praise be to you, O Lord the God of Israel, our father for ever and ever.
11Yours, O Lord, is the strength and the power and the glory, and the authority and the honour: for everything in heaven and on earth is yours; yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are lifted up as head over all.
12Wealth and honour come from you, and you are ruler over all, and in your hand is power and strength; it is in your power to make great, and to give strength to all.
13So now, our God, we give you praise, honouring the glory of your name.
14But who am I and what is my people, that we have power to give so freely in this way? for all things come from you, and what we have given you is yours.
