1 And Solomon said to build a temple for the Name of YHWH, and a house for his kingdom. 2 And Solomon selected seventy thousand men as burden bearers, and eighty thousand men as hewers in the hill country, and three thousand and six hundred overseers over them. 3 And Solomon sent to Huram king of Tyre, saying, “Do as you did with David my father, sending him cedars to build himself a house to dwell in it. 4 Behold, I am building a house for the Name of YHWH my God to consecrate to Him, to burn before Him incense of spices, and for continual showbread, and for the burnt offerings at the morning and at the evening, on the Sabbaths, and on the New Moons, and at appointed seasons of YHWH our God. Forever this is upon Israel. 2 Chronicles 2:1-4, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
