2 Chronicles 2:3-4 ▼

3 Solomon also sent this message to King Hiram of Tyre: |Just as you did with my father David, sending him cedars to build him a palace to live in, do the same for me.

4 Look, I'm building a temple dedicated to the name of the LORD my God, to his glory, so we can burn fragrant incense in his presence, display rows of the bread of his presence continuously, and make burnt offerings in the morning, evening, on Sabbath days, during New Moon festivals, and during appointed festivals scheduled by the LORD our God. This is mandated forever in Israel.
