2 Chronicles 2:13-18

English Standard Version

¹³ “Now I have sent a skilled man, who has understanding, Huram-abi, ^14 (A)the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan, and his father was a man of Tyre. He is ^(B)trained to work in gold, silver, bronze, iron, stone, and wood, and in purple, blue, and crimson fabrics and fine linen, and to do all sorts of engraving and execute any design that may be assigned him, with your craftsmen, the craftsmen of my lord, David your father. ¹⁵ Now therefore the wheat and barley, oil and wine, ^(C)of which my lord has spoken, let him send to his servants. ^16 (D)And we will cut whatever timber you need from Lebanon and bring it to you in rafts by sea to ^(E)Joppa, so that you may take it up to Jerusalem.”

¹⁷ Then Solomon counted all the resident aliens who were in the land of Israel, ^(F)after the census of them that David his father had taken, and there were found 153,600. ^18 (G)Seventy thousand of them he assigned to bear burdens, 80,000 to quarry in the hill country, and 3,600 as overseers to make the people work.
