2 Chronicles 2:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ Now ^(A)send me a skilled man to work in gold, silver, brass and iron, and in purple, crimson and violet fabrics, and who knows how to make engravings, to work with the skilled men ^[a](B)whom I have in Judah and Jerusalem, whom David my father provided. ^8 (C)Send me also cedar, cypress and algum timber from Lebanon, for I know that your servants know how to cut timber of Lebanon; and indeed ^(D)my servants will work with your servants, ⁹ to prepare timber in abundance for me, for the house which I am about to build will be great and wonderful.
