* And David commanded to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel ; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God . * And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates , and for the joinings ; and brass in abundance without weight ; * Also cedar trees in abundance : for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David . * And David said , Solomon my son is young and tender , and the house that is to be builded for the LORD must be exceeding magnifical , of fame and of glory throughout all countries : I will therefore now make preparation for it . So David prepared abundantly before his death .
