1 Kings 5:7-12
7And it came to pass when Hiram heard the wordsH1697 of SolomonH8010, that he rejoiced greatly, and said, Blessed be Jehovah this day, who has given to David a wise son over this great people.
8And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have heard the things which thou sentest to me for: I will do all thy desire concerningH413 timber of cedar, and concerningH413 timber of cypress.
9My servants shall bring [them] down from Lebanon to the seaH3220; and I will convey them by seaH3220 [in] rafts to the place that thou shalt appoint me, and will cause them to be broken up there, and thou shalt receive them. And thou shalt accomplish my desire in givingH5414 food for my household.
10So Hiram gave SolomonH8010 cedar-trees and cypress-trees [according to] all his desire.
11And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat as food for his household, and twenty measures of beaten oil: thus gave Solomon to Hiram year by year.
12And Jehovah gave Solomon wisdom as he promised him. And there wasH1961 peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two made a league.
