1 Kings 5:5-6

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

6Now therefore commandH6680 thou that they hewH3772 me cedar treesH730 out of LebanonH3844; and my servantsH5650 shall be with thy servantsH5650: and unto thee will I giveH5414 hireH7939 for thy servantsH5650 according to all that thou shalt appointH559: for thou knowestH3045 that there is not among us anyH376 that can skillH3045 to hewH3772 timberH6086 like unto the SidoniansH6722.2
