2 Chronicles 2:15

Now therefore, the wheat, and the barley, the oil, and the
wine, which my lord hath spoken of
In his letter to him, ( 2 Chronicles 2:10 ) as for the phrase "my lord", which some think is used, because Hiram was tributary to Solomon, it may only be a respectful way of speaking:

let him send unto his servants;
Hiram accepted thereof as a proper reward for the work of his servants.

2 Chronicles 2:15 In-Context

13 Now I have sent a skillful man, endowed with understanding, of Huram my father's,

14 the son of a woman of the daughters of Dan; and his father was a man of Tyre, skillful to work in gold, and in silver, in brass, in iron, in stone, and in timber, in purple, in blue, and in fine linen, and in crimson, also to engrave any manner of engraving, and to devise any device; that there may be [a place] appointed to him with your skillful men, and with the skillful men of my lord David your father.

15 Now therefore the wheat and the barley, the oil and the wine, which my lord has spoken of, let him send to his servants:

16 and we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as you shall need; and we will bring it to you in floats by sea to Joppa; and you shall carry it up to Jerusalem.

17 Solomon numbered all the sojourners who were in the land of Israel, after the numbering with which David his father had numbered them; and they were found one hundred fifty-three thousand six hundred.
