1 Kings 5:1-8

And Hiram
<02438>
king
<04428>
of Tyre
<06865>
sent
<07971> (8799)
his servants
<05650>
unto Solomon
<08010>_;
for he had heard
<08085> (8804)
that they had anointed
<04886> (8804)
him king
<04428>
in the room of his father
<01>_:
for Hiram
<02438>
was ever
<03117>
a lover
<0157> (8802)
of David
<01732>_.
{Hiram: also called, Huram}
And Solomon
<08010>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Hiram
<02438>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
how that David
<01732>
my father
<01>
could
<03201> (8804)
not build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
unto the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>
for
<06440>
the wars
<04421>
which were about him on every side
<05437> (8804)_,
until the LORD
<03068>
put
<05414> (8800)
them under the soles
<03709>
of his feet
<07272>_.
But now the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>
hath given me rest
<05117> (8689)
on every side
<05439>_,
[so that there is] neither adversary
<07854>
nor evil
<07451>
occurrent
<06294>_.
And, behold, I purpose
<0559> (8802)
to build
<01129> (8800)
an house
<01004>
unto the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
as the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8765)
unto David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thy son
<01121>_,
whom I will set
<05414> (8799)
upon thy throne
<03678>
in thy room, he shall build
<01129> (8799)
an house
<01004>
unto my name
<08034>_.
{purpose: Heb. say}
Now therefore command
<06680> (8761)
thou that they hew
<03772> (8799)
me cedar trees
<0730>
out of Lebanon
<03844>_;
and my servants
<05650>
shall be with thy servants
<05650>_:
and unto thee will I give
<05414> (8799)
hire
<07939>
for thy servants
<05650>
according to all that thou shalt appoint
<0559> (8799)_:
for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)
that [there is] not among us any
<0376>
that can skill
<03045> (8802)
to hew
<03772> (8800)
timber
<06086>
like unto the Sidonians
<06722>_.
{appoint: Heb. say}
And it came to pass, when Hiram
<02438>
heard
<08085> (8800)
the words
<01697>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
that he rejoiced
<08055> (8799)
greatly
<03966>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
[be] the LORD
<03068>
this day
<03117>_,
which hath given
<05414> (8804)
unto David
<01732>
a wise
<02450>
son
<01121>
over this great
<07227>
people
<05971>_.
And Hiram
<02438>
sent
<07971> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I have considered
<08085> (8804)
the things which thou sentest
<07971> (8804)
to me for: [and] I will do
<06213> (8799)
all thy desire
<02656>
concerning timber
<06086>
of cedar
<0730>_,
and concerning timber
<06086>
of fir
<01265>_.
{considered: Heb. heard}
