Ecce ego in paupertate mea præparavi impensas domus Domini, auri talenta centum millia, et argenti mille millia talentorum : æris vero et ferri non est pondus, vincitur enim numerus magnitudine ; ligna et lapides præparavi ad universa impendia.
Now behold, I have taken great pains to provide for the house of the LORD—100,000 talents of gold (note: 100,000 talents is approximately 3,770 tons or 3,420 metric tons of gold.), 1,000,000 talents of silver (note: 1,000,000 talents is approximately 37,700 tons or 34,200 metric tons of silver.), and bronze and iron too great to be weighed. I have also provided timber and stone, and you may add to them.
