1 Chronicles 29:17
I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of mine heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, which are present here, to offer willingly unto thee.

David's prayer at the dedication of the temple building resources — 'I know, my God, that you test the heart and have pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things' — models the interiorization of worship that the Chronicler holds as the ideal. The verb 'test' (bochan) appears throughout the wisdom and prophetic traditions for God's capacity to scrutinize human motivation beyond observable behavior. The freely offered (benadibbah — with willingness, spontaneously) character of David's giving establishes that the material offering is the expression of an already-formed interior orientation, not the substance of the offering itself. The verse captures the Chronicler's persistent interest in the inner life of worship as the foundation for legitimate external practice.
