Psalms 50:10-12
For every beast of the forest is Mine, And the cattle on a thousand hills.I know all the birds of the mountains, And the wild beasts of the field are Mine.“ If I were hungry, I would not tell you; For the world is Mine, and all its fullness.

1 Chronicles 29 14-1 Chronicles 29 16
But who am I, and who are my people, That we should be able to offer so willingly as this? For all things come from You, And of Your own we have given You.For we are aliens and pilgrims before You, As were all our fathers; Our days on earth are as a shadow, And without hope.“ O Lord our God, all this abundance that we have prepared to build You a house for Your holy name is 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. He overlaid it with pure gold, and overlaid the altar of cedar.So Solomon overlaid the inside of the temple with pure gold. He stretched gold chains across the front of the inner sanctuary, and overlaid it with gold.The whole temple he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the temple; also he overlaid with gold the entire altar that was by the inner sanctuary.Inside the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.One wing of the cherub was five cubits, and the other wing of the cherub five cubits: ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other.And the other cherub was ten cubits; both cherubim were of the same size and shape.The height of one cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other cherub.Then he set the cherubim inside the inner room; and they stretched out the wings of the cherubim so that the wing of the one touched one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall. And their wings touched each other in the middle of the room.Also he overlaid the cherubim with gold.Then he carved all the walls of the temple all around, both the inner and outer sanctuaries, with carved figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.And the floor of the temple he overlaid with gold, both the inner and outer sanctuaries.For the entrance of the inner sanctuary he made doors of olive wood; the lintel and doorposts were one-fifth of the wall.The two doors were of olive wood; and he carved on them figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread gold on the cherubim and on the palm trees.So for the door of the sanctuary he also made doorposts of olive wood, one-fourth of the wall.And the two doors were of cypress wood; two panels comprised one folding door, and two panels comprised the other folding door.Then he carved cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers on them, and overlaid them with gold applied evenly on the carved work.
