Now, behold, in my trouble I have prepared for the house of the LORD an hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight; for it is in abundance: timber also and stone have I prepared; and thou mayest add thereto.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 22 of 1 Chronicles. David explains to Solomon that he desires to build a house for God, but his role will be to prepare materials and hand the task to his son. He instructs him to seek the Lord, keep his commandments, and build the temple. Material preparation is inseparably connected with spiritual exhortation: construction of the sanctuary must be accompanied by covenant faithfulness.

He aquí, yo en mi estrechez he prevenido para la casa de Jehová cien mil talentos de oro, y un millar de millares de talentos de plata: no tiene peso el metal ni el hierro, porque es mucho. Asimismo he aprestado madera y piedra, a lo cual tú añadirás.
Con grandes esfuerzos he preparado para la casa de Jehová unas tres mil cuatrocientas toneladas de oro y unas treinta y cuatro mil toneladas de plata. El bronce y el hierro no se pueden pesar, porque son muy abundantes. También he preparado madera y piedras, y tú añadirás a todo ello.
Voici, par mes efforts, j'ai préparé pour la maison de l'Eternel cent mille talents d'or, un million de talents d'argent, et une quantité d'airain et de fer qu'il n'est pas possible de peser, car il y en a en abondance; j'ai aussi préparé du bois et des pierres, et tu en ajouteras encore.
Or ecco, io, nella mia povertà, ho apparecchiati per la Casa del Signore centomila talenti d’oro, e millemila talenti d’argento; quant’è al rame ed al ferro, il peso n’è senza fine; perciocchè ve n’è in gran quantità; ho eziandio apparecchiato legname e pietre; e tu ve ne potrai aggiugnere ancora più.
