1 King Hiramof Tyrehad always been a friend of David’s, and when he heard that Solomonhad succeeded his father Davidas king, he sent ambassadors to him. 2 Solomonsent back this message to Hiram: 3 "You know that because of the constant wars my father Davidhad to fight against the enemy countries all around him, he could not build a temple for the worship of the Lordhis God until the Lordhad given him victory over all his enemies. 4 But now the Lordmy God has given me peace on all my borders. I have no enemies, and there is no danger of attack. 5 2 S 7.12,13;1 Ch 17.11,12The Lordpromised my father David, ‘Your son, whom I will make king after you, will build a temple for me.’ And I have now decided to build that temple for the worship of the Lordmy God. 6 So send your men to Lebanonto cut down cedars for me. My men will work with them, and I will pay your men whatever you decide. As you well know, my men don’t know how to cut down trees as well as yours do."
7 Hiramwas extremely pleased when he received Solomon’s message, and he said, "Praise the Lordtoday for giving Davidsuch a wise son to succeed him as king of that great nation!" 8 Then Hiramsent Solomonthe following message: "I have received your message, and I am ready to do what you ask. I will provide the cedars and the pine trees. 9 My men will bring the logs down from Lebanonto the sea and will tie them together in rafts to float them down the coast to the place you choose. There my men will untie them, and your men will take charge of them. On your part, I would like you to supply the food for my men."
10 So Hiramsupplied Solomonwith all the cedar and pine logs that he wanted, 11 and Solomonprovided Hiramwith 100,000 bushelsof wheat and 110,000 gallons5.11: Some ancient translations (and see 2 Ch 2.10) 110,000 gallons; Hebrew 1,100 gallons.of pure olive oil every year to feed his men.
12 The Lordkept his promise and gave Solomonwisdom. There was peace between Hiramand Solomon, and they made a treaty with each other.
13 King Solomondrafted 30,000 men as forced labor from all over Israel, 14 1 K 12.18and put Adoniramin charge of them. He divided them into three groups of 10,000 men, and each group spent one month in Lebanonand two months back home. 15 Solomonalso had 80,000 stone cutters in the hill country, with 70,000 men to carry the stones, 16 and he placed 3,300 foremen in charge of them to supervise their work. 17 At King Solomon’s command they cut fine large stones for the foundation of the Temple. 18 Solomon’s and Hiram’s workers and men from the city of Byblosprepared the stones and the timber to build the Temple.
