1 Kings 5:5-6

5And, behold, I purpose to build an house for the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spake unto DavidH3117 my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will setH3427 uponH3427 thy throne in thy room, he shall build the house for my name.

6NowH1961 therefore command thou that they hew meH1961 cedar trees outH8147 of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with thy servants; and I will giveH1961 thee hire for thy servants according to allH505 that thou shalt say: for thou knowest that there is notH1961 among us anyH1961 that canH8147 skill to hew timber like unto the Zidonians.
