1 Kings 5:1-18

And Hiram
<02438>

king
<04428>

of Tyre
<06865>

sent
<07971> (8799)

his servants
<05650>

unto Solomon
<08010>_;

for he had heard
<08085> (8804)

that they had anointed
<04886> (8804)

him king
<04428>

in the room of his father
<01>_:

for Hiram
<02438>

was ever
<03117>

a lover
<0157> (8802)

of David
<01732>_.

{Hiram: also called, Huram}

And Solomon
<08010>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Hiram
<02438>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

how that David
<01732>

my father
<01>

could
<03201> (8804)

not build
<01129> (8800)

an house
<01004>

unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>

for
<06440>

the wars
<04421>

which were about him on every side
<05437> (8804)_,

until the LORD
<03068>

put
<05414> (8800)

them under the soles
<03709>

of his feet
<07272>_.

But now the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>

hath given me rest
<05117> (8689)

on every side
<05439>_,

[so that there is] neither adversary
<07854>

nor evil
<07451>

occurrent
<06294>_.

And, behold, I purpose
<0559> (8802)

to build
<01129> (8800)

an house
<01004>

unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

unto David
<01732>

my father
<01>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy son
<01121>_,

whom I will set
<05414> (8799)

upon thy throne
<03678>

in thy room, he shall build
<01129> (8799)

an house
<01004>

unto my name
<08034>_.

{purpose: Heb. say}

Now therefore command
<06680> (8761)

thou that they hew
<03772> (8799)

me cedar trees
<0730>

out of Lebanon
<03844>_;

and my servants
<05650>

shall be with thy servants
<05650>_:

and unto thee will I give
<05414> (8799)

hire
<07939>

for thy servants
<05650>

according to all that thou shalt appoint
<0559> (8799)_:

for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

that [there is] not among us any
<0376>

that can skill
<03045> (8802)

to hew
<03772> (8800)

timber
<06086>

like unto the Sidonians
<06722>_.

{appoint: Heb. say}

And it came to pass, when Hiram
<02438>

heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of Solomon
<08010>_,

that he rejoiced
<08055> (8799)

greatly
<03966>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the LORD
<03068>

this day
<03117>_,

which hath given
<05414> (8804)

unto David
<01732>

a wise
<02450>

son
<01121>

over this great
<07227>

people
<05971>_.

And Hiram
<02438>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Solomon
<08010>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I have considered
<08085> (8804)

the things which thou sentest
<07971> (8804)

to me for: [and] I will do
<06213> (8799)

all thy desire
<02656>

concerning timber
<06086>

of cedar
<0730>_,

and concerning timber
<06086>

of fir
<01265>_.

{considered: Heb. heard}

My servants
<05650>

shall bring [them] down
<03381> (8686)

from Lebanon
<03844>

unto the sea
<03220>_:

and I will convey
<07760> (8799)

them by sea
<03220>

in floats
<01702>

unto the place
<04725>

that thou shalt appoint
<07971> (8799)

me, and will cause them to be discharged
<05310> (8765)

there, and thou shalt receive
<05375> (8799)

[them]: and thou shalt accomplish
<06213> (8799)

my desire
<02656>_,

in giving
<05414> (8800)

food
<03899>

for my household
<01004>_.

{appoint: Heb. send}

So Hiram
<02438>

gave
<05414> (8802)

Solomon
<08010>

cedar
<0730>

trees
<06086>

and fir
<01265>

trees
<06086>

[according to] all his desire
<02656>_.

And Solomon
<08010>

gave
<05414> (8804)

Hiram
<02438>

twenty
<06242>

thousand
<0505>

measures
<03734>

of wheat
<02406>

[for] food
<04361>

to his household
<01004>_,

and twenty
<06242>

measures
<03734>

of pure
<03795>

oil
<08081>_:

thus gave
<05414> (8799)

Solomon
<08010>

to Hiram
<02438>

year
<08141>

by year
<08141>_.

{measures: Heb. cors}

And the LORD
<03068>

gave
<05414> (8804)

Solomon
<08010>

wisdom
<02451>_,

as he promised
<01696> (8765)

him: and there was peace
<07965>

between Hiram
<02438>

and Solomon
<08010>_;

and they two
<08147> (0)

made
<03772> (8799)

a league
<01285>

together
<08147>_.

And king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

raised
<05927> (8686)

a levy
<04522>

out of all Israel
<03478>_;

and the levy
<04522>

was thirty
<07970>

thousand
<0505>

men
<0376>_.

{levy: Heb. tribute of men}

And he sent
<07971> (8799)

them to Lebanon
<03844>_,

ten
<06235>

thousand
<0505>

a month
<02320>

by courses
<02487>_:

a month
<02320>

they were in Lebanon
<03844>_,

[and] two
<08147>

months
<02320>

at home
<01004>_:

and Adoniram
<0141>

[was] over the levy
<04522>_.

And Solomon
<08010>

had threescore and ten
<07657>

thousand
<0505>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

burdens
<05449>_,

and fourscore
<08084>

thousand
<0505>

hewers
<02672> (8802)

in the mountains
<02022>_;

Beside the chief
<08269>

of Solomon's
<08010>

officers
<05324> (8737)

which [were] over the work
<04399>_,

three
<07969>

thousand
<0505>

and three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>_,

which ruled
<07287> (8802)

over the people
<05971>

that wrought
<06213> (8802)

in the work
<04399>_.

And the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)_,

and they brought
<05265> (8686)

great
<01419>

stones
<068>_,

costly
<03368>

stones
<068>_,

[and] hewed
<01496>

stones
<068>_,

to lay the foundation
<03245> (8763)

of the house
<01004>_.

And Solomon's
<08010>

builders
<01129> (8802)

and Hiram's
<02438>

builders
<01129> (8802)

did hew
<06458> (8799)

[them], and the stonesquarers
<01382>_:

so they prepared
<03559> (8686)

timber
<06086>

and stones
<068>

to build
<01129> (8800)

the house
<01004>_.
