1 Chronicles 22:3-5

Tree of Life Version

³ David supplied an abundance of iron for nails for the doors of the gates and for the joints, so much bronze that it could not be weighed, ⁴ and cedar logs without number, for the Zidonians and the Tyrians brought an abundance of cedar logs to David.

⁵ David said, “Solomon my son is young and inexperienced and the House that is to be built for Adonai must be exceedingly magnificent, famous and glorious throughout all the nations. Therefore I will make preparation for it.” So David made extensive preparations before his death.
