2 Chronicles 2:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Send me now therefore a cunning man that can work in gold, in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and in [a]crimson and blue silk, and that can grave in graven work with the cunning men that are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father hath prepared.
8 Send me also cedar trees, fir trees and [b][c]Algummim trees from Lebanon: for I know that thy servants can skill to hew timber in Lebanon: and behold, my servants shall be with thine,
9 That they may prepare me timber in abundance: for the house which I do build, is great and wonderful.
