14 “I have taken great pains to provide for the temple of the Lord a hundred thousand talents[a] of gold, a million talents[b] of silver, quantities of bronze and iron too great to be weighed, and wood and stone. And you may add to them.(A) 15 You have many workers: stonecutters, masons and carpenters,(B) as well as those skilled in every kind of work 16 in gold and silver, bronze and iron—craftsmen(C) beyond number. Now begin the work, and the Lord be with you.”
