Contextual Overview
6 And he called for his son Solomon, and commanded him to build a house to Jehovah, the God of Israel. 7 And David said to his son Solomon, As for me, it has been in my heart to build a house to the name of Jehovah my God. 8 But the Word of Jehovah was against me, saying, You have shed blood in abundance, and you have made great wars; you shall not build a house to My name, for you have shed much blood to the earth before Me. 9 Behold, a son shall be born to you; he shall be a man of rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies all around, for Solomon shall be his name, and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days; 10 he shall build a house to My name, and he shall be a son to Me, and I a Father to him; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever. 11 Now, my son, may Jehovah be with you, and may you prosper and build the house of Jehovah your God, as He spoke concerning you. 12 Only, may Jehovah give wisdom and understanding to you and command you as to Israel, even to keep the Law of Jehovah your God; 13 then you shall prosper, if you observe to do the statutes and the judgments that Jehovah commanded Moses as to Israel; be strong and courageous; do not fear, nor be cast down. 14 And, behold, in my affliction I have prepared a hundred thousand gold talents for the house of Jehovah, and a million talents of silver; and there is no weighing of the bronze and iron, for it is in abundance; and I have prepared wood andstones, and you shall add to them. 15 And there are many workmen with you, masons and carvers in stone, and of wood, and every skillful man for every work.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron,.... That is, the cunning artificers were skilful to work in each of these, some in gold and silver, others in brass and iron:
there is no number; either of the workmen, or of these materials; which yet must be restrained to the brass and iron, for the gold and silver are numbered, but not the brass and iron, 1 Chronicles 22:14,
arise therefore, and be doing: not that he should set about and begin the building the temple directly; but as soon as he could after he came to the throne, and not neglect and delay it:
and the Lord be with thee; as in 1 Chronicles 22:11 and here, as there, the Targum is,
"may the Word of the Lord be thy help.''
