New Catholic Bible

¹¹ Temple Plans Given to Solomon. David then gave Solomon, his son, the plans for the porch of the temple, its treasuries, its upper chambers, its inner chambers, and the place of the seat of mercy.^{[a] 12} The plans included everything that the Spirit had inspired concerning the courtyards of the temple of the Lord, all of the surrounding chambers, the treasury of the temple of the Lord, and the treasury for the dedicated objects.

¹³ He also told him about the divisions of the priests and Levites, and for all of the work to be done in the service of the temple of the Lord, as well as, for all the vessels used in the service of the temple of the Lord.

¹⁴ He gave the weight of the gold and all the golden implements for the various forms of service, and the weight of the silver in the implements for the various forms of service. ¹⁵ He also told him the weight for the golden lampstands and their lamps, the weight of the gold for each of the lampstands and their lamps, the weight of the silver for the lampstands and their lamps, according to the use of each of the lampstands. ¹⁶ He told him the weight of the gold for each of the tables for the shewbread and likewise the weight of the silver for the silver tables. ¹⁷ He told him the weight of the pure gold for the forks, the sprinkling bowls, and the pitchers, the weight of gold for each of the basins, and the weight of the silver for each of the silver dishes. ¹⁸ He told him the weight of the refined gold for the altar of incense. He also gave him the pattern for the chariot, that is, the golden cherubim with outstretched wings that covered the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord.

¹⁹ David said, “This is all in writing for the hand of the Lord was upon me; he gave me understanding of all of the details of the plan.”
