1 Kings 5:7-9

7When Hiram heard the words of Solomon, he greatly rejoiced; and he said, “Blessed be the Lord today, who has given to David a wise son over this great people.”

8So Hiram sent word to Solomon, saying, “I have heard the message which you sent me; I will do everything you wish concerning the cedar and juniper timber.

9My servants will bring the timbers down from Lebanon to the sea; and I will have them made into rafts to go by sea 1to the place where you 2direct me, and I will have them broken up there, and you will carry them away. Then 3you shall do what I wish, by giving food to my household.”
