2 Chronicles 2:4

Compare all

2 ^aSolomon selected seventy thousand men to bear burdens, eighty thousand to quarry stone in the mountains, and three thousand six hundred to oversee them.

3 Then Solomon sent to¹ Hiram king of Tyre, saying:
^aAs you have dealt with David my father, and sent him cedars to build himself a house to dwell in, so deal with me.

4 Behold, ^aI am building a temple for the name of the Lord my God, to dedicate it to Him, ^bto burn before Him sweet incense, for ^cthe continual showbread, for ^dthe burnt offerings morning and evening, on the ^eSabbaths, on the New Moons, and on the² set feasts of the Lord our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.

5 And the temple which I build will be great, for ^aour God is greater than all gods.

6 ^aBut who is able to build Him a temple, since heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him? Who am I then, that I should build Him a temple, except to burn sacrifice before Him?

7 Therefore send me at once a man skillful to work in gold and silver, in bronze and iron, in purple and crimson and blue, who has skill to engrave with the skillful men who are with me in Judah and Jerusalem, ^awhom David my father provided.

8 ^aAlso send me cedar and cypress and algum logs from Lebanon, for I know that your servants have skill to cut timber in Lebanon; and indeed my servants will be with your servants,
