1 Kings 5:3

Solomon Prepares to Build the Temple

1 Now ^aHiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon, because he heard that they had anointed him king in place of his father, ^bfor Hiram had always loved David.

2 Then ^aSolomon sent to Hiram, saying:

3 ^aYou know how my father David could not build a house for the name of the Lord his God ^bbecause of the wars which were fought against him on every side, until the Lord put¹ his foes under the soles of his feet.

4 But now the Lord my God has given me ^arest on every side; there is neither adversary nor² evil occurrence.

5 ^aAnd behold,¹ I propose to build a house for the name of the Lord my God, ^bas the Lord spoke to my father David, saying, “Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build the house for My name.”
