1
And Solomon
determined
to build
an house
for the name
of the LORD
,
and
an house
for his kingdom
.
2
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.
3
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
.
4
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
.
5
And the house
which
I build
is
great
:
for great
is
our God
above
all
gods
.
6
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
be
for
e
him?
7
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
.
8
Send
me also cedar
trees
,
fir
trees
,
and algum
trees
,
out of Lebanon
:
for I know
that thy servants
can skill
to cut
timber
in Lebanon
; and, behold, my servants
shall be
with thy servants
,
9
Even to prepare
me timber
in abundance
:
for the house
which
I am about to build
shall be
wonderful
great
.
10
And,
behold
, I will give
to thy servants
,
the hewers
that cut
timber
,
twenty
thousand
measures
of beaten
wheat
,
and
twenty
thousand
measures
of barley
,
and
twenty
thousand
baths
of wine
,
and
twenty
thousand
baths
of oil
.
11
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.
12
Huram
said
moreover, Blessed
be
the LORD
God
of Israel
,
that made
heaven
and earth
,
who
hath given
to David
the king
a wise
son
,
endued
with prudence
and understanding
,
that might build
an house
for the LORD
,
and
an house
for his kingdom
.
13
And now I have sent
a cunning
man
,
endued
with understanding
,
of Huram
my father's,
14
The son
of a woman
of the daughters
of Dan,
and his father
was
a man
of Tyre
,
skilful
to work
in gold
,
and in silver
,
in brass
,
in iron
,
in stone
,
and in timber
,
in purple
,
in blue
,
and in fine linen
,
and in crimson
;
also to grave
any
manner of graving,
and to find out
every device
which
sh
all
be put
to him, with thy cunning men,
and with the cunning men
of my lord
David
thy father
.
15
Now
therefore the wheat
,
and the barley
,
the oil
,
and the wine
,
which my lord
hath spoken
of, let him send
unto his servants
:
16
And we will cut
wood
out of Lebanon
,
as much as thou shalt need
:
and we will bring
it to thee in floats
by sea
to Joppa
;
and thou shalt carry it up
to Jerusalem
.
17
And Solomon
numbered
all the strangers
that
were
in the land
of Israel
,
after
the numbering
wherewith David
his father
had
numbered
them; and they
were
found
an hundred
and fifty thousand and three thousand and six hundred.
18
And he set
threescore and ten
thousand
of them
to be
bearers of burdens
,
and fourscore
thousand
to be
hewers
in the mountain
,
and three
thousand and six hundred
overseers
to set
the people
a work
.
