sent
<07971> (8799)
to Huram
<02361>
the king
<04428>

<06865>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
As thou didst deal
<06213> (8804)
with David
<01732>
my father
<01>_,
and didst send
<07971> (8799)
him cedars
<0730>
to build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>

<03427> (8800)
therein, [even so deal with me]. {Huram: or, Hiram}
Behold, I build
<01129> (8802)
an house
<01004>
to the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
to dedicate
<06942> (8687)
[it] to him, [and] to burn
<06999> (8687)

<06440>
him sweet
<05561>

<01242>

<07676>_,
and on the new moons
<02320>_,
and on the solemn feasts
<04150>
of the LORD
<03068>
our God

This [is an ordinance] for ever
<05769>

<03478>_.
{sweet...: Heb. incense of spices}
And the house
<01004>
which I build
<01129> (8802)
[is] great
<01419>_:
for great
<01419>
[is] our God
<0430>
above all gods
<0430>_.
But who is able
<06113> (8799) <03581>
to build
<01129> (8800)
him an house
<01004>_,
seeing the heaven
<08064>
and heaven
<08064>
of heavens
<08064>
cannot contain
<03557> (8770)
him? who [am] I then, that I should build
<01129> (8799)
him an house
<01004>_,
save only
<0518>
to burn sacrifice
<06999> (8687)
before
<06440>
him? {is able: Heb. hath retained, or, obtained strength}
Send
<07971> (8798)
me now therefore a man
<0376>

<02450>

<02091>_,

<05178>_,
and in iron
<01270>_,

<08504>_,
and that can skill
<03045> (8802)
to grave
<06605> (8763) <06603>
with the cunning men
<02450>
that [are] with me in Judah
<03063>
and in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
whom David
<01732>
my father
<01>
did provide
<03559> (8689)_.
{to grave: Heb. to grave gravings}
Send
<07971> (8798)
me also cedar
<0730>
trees
<06086>_,
fir trees
<01265>_,
and algum trees
<0418>_,
out of Lebanon
<03844>_:
for I know
<03045> (8804)
that thy servants
<05650>
can skill
<03045> (8802)
to cut
<03772> (8800)

<06086>
in Lebanon
<03844>_;
and, behold, my servants
<05650>
[shall be] with thy servants
<05650>_,
