1 Kings 5:10-18
10So Hirah gave SolomonH8010 timber of cedar and timber of fir according to allH3605 his desire. 11And Solomon gaveH1961 Hiram twenty thousand measures of wheat for food to his household, and twenty measures of pure oil: thusH1961 gaveH1961 Solomon to Hiram year by year. 12And the LORD gaveH1961 Solomon wisdom, as he promisedH1696 him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon; and they two madeH1696 a league together. 13And kingH5921 Solomon raised a levy outH3318 of allH5704 Israel; and the levy was thirty thousand men. 14And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month by courses: a month they were in Lebanon, and two months at homeH776: and Adoniram was over the levy. 15And SolomonH8010 had threescore and ten thousand that bare burdens, and fourscore thousand that were hewers in the mountains; 16besides Solomon’sH8010 chief officers that were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, which bare rule over the people that wrought in the work. 17And the king commanded, and they hewed outH3045 greatH430 stones, costly stones, to layH5414 the foundation of the houseH1004 with wrought stoneH834. 18And Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders and the Gebalites did fashion them, and prepared the timber and the stones to build the house.
