And Solomon
determined
to build
an house
for the name
of the LORD,
and an house
for his kingdom.
And Solomon
told out
threescore and ten
thousand
men
to bear burdens,
and fourscore
thousand
to hew
in the mountain,
and three
thousand
and six
hundred
to oversee
them.

And Solomon
sent
to Huram
the king
of Tyre,
saying,
As thou didst deal
with David
my father,
and didst send
him cedars
to build
him an house
to dwell
therein, even so deal with me.

Behold, I build
an house
to the name
of the LORD
my God,
to dedicate
it to him, and to burn
before
him sweet
incense,
and for the continual
shewbread,
and for the burnt offerings
morning
and evening,
on the sabbaths,
and on the new moons,
and on the solemn feasts
of the LORD
our God.
This is an ordinance for ever
to Israel.

And the house
which I build
is great:
for great
is our God
above all gods.
But who is able
to build
him an house,
seeing the heaven
and heaven
of heavens
cannot contain
him? who am I then, that I should build
him an house,
save only
to burn sacrifice
before
him?
Send
me now therefore a man
cunning
to work
in gold,
and in silver,
and in brass,
and in iron,
and in purple,
and crimson,
and blue,
and that can skill
to grave
with the cunning men
that are with me in Judah
and in Jerusalem,
whom David
my father
did provide.

Send
me also cedar

out of Lebanon:
for I know
that thy servants

shall be with thy servants,

Even to prepare

in abundance:
for the house

shall be wonderful

And, behold, I will give

Then Huram
the king
of Tyre
answered
in writing,
which he sent
to Solomon,
Because the LORD
hath loved
his people,
he hath made
thee king
over them.

moreover, Blessed

And now I have sent

of Huram
my father's,
The son

was a man
of Tyre,
skilful
to work
in gold,

also to grave
any manner of graving,
and to find out
every device
which shall be put
to him, with thy cunning men,
and with the cunning men
of my lord
David
thy father.

Now therefore the wheat,

of, let him send
unto his servants:
And we will cut
wood
out of Lebanon,
as much as thou shalt need:
and we will bring

and thou shalt carry it up
