4 Behold, I am about to build a house for the name of YHWH my God, to dedicate it to him, to burn before him incense of sweet spices, for the continual show bread, and for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts of YHWH our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel. 2 Chronicles 2:4WEB
5 “The house which I am building will be great, for our God is greater than all gods. 2 Chronicles 2:5WEB
6 But who is able to build him a house, since heaven and the heaven of heavens can’t contain him? Who am I then, that I should build him a house, except just to burn incense before him? 2 Chronicles 2:6WEB
7 “Now therefore send me a man skillful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, and in purple, crimson, and blue, and who knows how to engrave engravings, to be with the skillful men who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father provided. 2 Chronicles 2:7WEB
8 “Send me also cedar trees, cypress trees, and algum trees out of Lebanon, for I know that your servants know how to cut timber in Lebanon. Behold, my servants will be with your servants, 2 Chronicles 2:8WEB
9 even to prepare me timber in abundance; for the house which I am about to build will be great and wonderful. 2 Chronicles 2:9WEB
10 Behold, I will give to your servants, the cutters who cut timber, twenty thousand cors of beaten wheat, twenty thousand baths of barley, twenty thousand baths of wine, and twenty thousand baths of oil.” 2 Chronicles 2:10WEB
11 Then Huram the king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon, “Because YHWH loves his people, he has made you king over them.” 2 Chronicles 2:11WEB
12 Huram continued, “Blessed be YHWH, the God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, who has given to David the king a wise son, endowed with discretion and understanding, who would build a house for YHWH and a house for his kingdom. 2 Chronicles 2:12WEB
13 Now I have sent a skillful man, endowed with understanding, Huram-abi, 2 Chronicles 2:13WEB
14 the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan; and his father was a man of Tyre. He is skillful to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in iron, in stone, in timber, in purple, in blue, in fine linen, and in crimson, also to engrave any kind of engraving and to devise any device, that there may be a place appointed to him with your skillful men, and with the skillful men of my lord David your father. 2 Chronicles 2:14WEB
15 “Now therefore, the wheat, the barley, the oil, and the wine which my lord has spoken of, let him send to his servants; 2 Chronicles 2:15WEB
16 and we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as you need. We will bring it to you in rafts by sea to Joppa; then you shall carry it up to Jerusalem.” 2 Chronicles 2:16WEB
