Moreover, because I have set my affection to the house of my God, I have of mine own proper good, of gold and silver, which I have given to the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house,
A más de esto, por cuanto tengo mi contentamiento en la Casa de mi Dios, yo tengo en mi tesoro particular oro y plata, el cual he dado para la Casa de mi Dios, además de todas las cosas que he aparejado para la Casa del santuario:
Verses 1-9 - What is done in works of piety and charity, should be done willingly not by constraint; for Godloves a cheerfulgiver. David set a goo example. This David offered, not from constraint, or for show; but because he had set his affection to the house of God, and thought he could never do enough towards promoting that good work. Those who woul draw others to good, must lead the way themselves.
