Psalms 50:10-12
For every beast of the forest is mine, the cattle on a thousand hills.I know all the birds of the hills, and all that moves in the field is mine.“ If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world and its fullness are mine.

1 Chronicles 29 14-1 Chronicles 29 16
“ But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able thus to offer willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you.For we are strangers before you and sojourners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are like a shadow, and there is no abiding.O Lord our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a house for your holy name comes from your hand and is all your own.

1 Kings 6 20-1 Kings 6 35
The inner sanctuary was twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high, and he overlaid it with pure gold. He also overlaid an altar of cedar.And Solomon overlaid the inside of the house with pure gold, and he drew chains of gold across, in front of the inner sanctuary, and overlaid it with gold.And he overlaid the whole house with gold, until all the house was finished. Also the whole altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary he overlaid with gold.In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olivewood, each ten cubits high.Five cubits was the length of one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the length of the other wing of the cherub; it was ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other.The other cherub also measured ten cubits; both cherubim had the same measure and the same form.The height of one cherub was ten cubits, and so was that of the other cherub.He put the cherubim in the innermost part of the house. And the wings of the cherubim were spread out so that a wing of one touched the one wall, and a wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; their other wings touched each other in the middle of the house.And he overlaid the cherubim with gold.Around all the walls of the house he carved engraved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, in the inner and outer rooms.The floor of the house he overlaid with gold in the inner and outer rooms.For the entrance to the inner sanctuary he made doors of olivewood; the lintel and the doorposts were five-sided.He covered the two doors of olivewood with carvings of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers. He overlaid them with gold and spread gold on the cherubim and on the palm trees.So also he made for the entrance to the nave doorposts of olivewood, in the form of a square,and two doors of cypress wood. The two leaves of the one door were folding, and the two leaves of the other door were folding.On them he carved cherubim and palm trees and open flowers, and he overlaid them with gold evenly applied on the carved work.
