1 Kings 5:10-14

New International Version

¹⁰ In this way Hiram kept Solomon supplied with all the cedar and juniper logs he wanted, ¹¹ and Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand cors^[a] of wheat as food^(A) for his household, in addition to twenty thousand baths^[b][c] of pressed olive oil. Solomon continued to do this for Hiram year after year. ¹² The Lord gave Solomon wisdom,^(B) just as he had promised him. There were peaceful relations between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty.^(C)

¹³ King Solomon conscripted laborers^(D) from all Israel—thirty thousand men. ¹⁴ He sent them off to Lebanon in shifts of ten thousand a month, so that they spent one month in Lebanon and two months at home. Adoniram^(E) was in charge of the forced labor.
