1 Chronicles 29:3-5
New Life Version
3 The house of my God means much to me. I have much gold and silver and I give it to the house of my God, together with all I have already given for the holy house. 4 I gave gold weighing as much as 3,000 men, of the gold of Ophir. I gave fine silver weighing as much as 7,000 men, to cover the walls of the house. 5 I gave gold for the things of gold, and silver for the things of silver for all the work done by the able men. Now who is willing to give himself and be set apart today to the Lord?”

New International Version
3 Besides, in my devotion to the temple of my God I now give my personal treasures of gold and silver for the temple of my God, over and above everything I have provided(A) for this holy temple: 4 three thousand talents[a] of gold (gold of Ophir)(B) and seven thousand talents[b] of refined silver,(C) for the overlaying of the walls of the buildings, 5 for the gold work and the silver work, and for all the work to be done by the craftsmen. Now, who is willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord today?”
