1 Kings 5:7-11
7When HiramH2438 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of SolomonH8010, he rejoicedH8055 greatlyH3966 and saidH559, “BlessedH1288 be the LordH3068 todayH3117, whoH834 has givenH5414 to DavidH1732 a wiseH2450 sonH1121 overH5921 thisH2088 greatH7227 peopleH5971.”
8So HiramH2438 sentH7971 word to SolomonH8010, sayingH559, “I have heardH8085 the message whichH834 you have sentH7971 me; I will doH6213 1whatH2656 you desireH2656 concerning the cedarH730 and cypressH1265 timberH6086.
9My servantsH5650 will bringH3381 them downH3381 from LebanonH3844 to the seaH3220; and I will makeH7760 them into raftsH1702 to go by seaH3220 2to the placeH4725 whereH834 you 3directH7971 me, and I will have them brokenH5310 up thereH8033, and you shall carryH5375 them away. Then 4you shall accomplishH6213 my desireH2656 by givingH5414 foodH3899 to my householdH1004.”
10So 5HiramH2438 6gaveH5414 SolomonH8010 7as muchH3605 as he desiredH2656 of the cedarH730 and cypressH1265 timberH6086.
118SolomonH8010 then gaveH5414 HiramH2438 20,000H6242H505 9korsH3734 of wheatH2406 as foodH4361 for his householdH1004, and twentyH6242 10korsH3734 of beatenH3795 oilH8081; thusH3541 SolomonH8010 would giveH5414 HiramH2438 yearH8141 by yearH8141.
