1 Kings 5:2-4

New Catholic Bible

² Solomon sent to Hiram, saying, ³ “You know that David, my father, could not build a temple for the name of the Lord, his God, because he had to fight battles on every side until the Lord placed them under his feet. ⁴ Now the Lord, my God, has given me rest on every side, so that there are neither adversaries nor disasters.
