2 Chronicles 2:3-5
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 Then Solomon sent word to King Hiram[a](A) of Tyre:(B)
Do for me what you did for my father David. You sent him cedars to build him a house to live in.(C) 4 Now I am building a temple for the name of Yahweh my God in order to dedicate it to Him for burning fragrant incense before Him,(D) for displaying the rows of the bread of the Presence continuously,(E) and for sacrificing burnt offerings for the morning and the evening,(F) the Sabbaths(G) and the New Moons, and the appointed festivals of the Lord our God. This is ordained for Israel forever. 5 The temple that I am building will be great, for our God is greater than any of the gods.(H)
