1 Kings 5:8-10

Lexham English Bible

⁸ Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, “I have heard what you have sent to me; I will do all of your desire concerning the timber of cedars and concerning the timber of cypresses. ⁹ My servants will bring them down from Lebanon to the sea, and I will make them into rafts in the sea to float to the place which you indicated to me. Then I shall break them up there, and you may carry them further, and you shall meet my needs^[a] by giving food for my house.” ¹⁰ So Hiram was giving to Solomon the cedar timbers and the cypress timbers, everything he needed.^[b]
