2And SolomonH8010 sentH7971 to HiramH2438, sayingH559,
3Thou knowestH3045 how that DavidH1732 my fatherH1 couldH3201 not buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068 his GodH430 forH6440 the warsH4421 which were about him on every sideH5437, Until YhwhH3068 putH5414 them under the solesH3709 of his feetH7272.
4But now YhwhH3068 my GodH430 hath given me restH5117 on every sideH5439, so that there is neither adversaryH7854 nor evilH7451 occurrentH6294.
5And, behold, I purposeH559 to buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto the nameH8034 of YhwhH3068 my GodH430, as YhwhH3068 spakeH1696 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1, sayingH559, Thy sonH1121, whom I will setH5414 upon thy throneH3678 in thy room, he shall buildH1129 an houseH1004 unto my nameH8034.1
