So Hiram, gave Solomon cedar trees, and fir trees Ordered his servants to cut them down from Lebanon, and sent them to him in floats, which he received:
[according to] all his desire; he had as many as he requested, and what he wanted.
8
So Hiram sent a message to Solomon. It said, "I have received the message you sent me. I'll do everything you want me to. I'll provide the cedar and pine logs.
9
My men will bring them from Lebanon down to the Mediterranean Sea. I'll make them into rafts. I'll float them to the place you want me to. When the rafts arrive, I'll separate the logs from each other. Then you can take them away. "And here's what I want in return. Provide food for all of the people in my palace."
10
So Hiram supplied Solomon with all of the cedar and pine logs he wanted.
11
Solomon gave Hiram 125,000 bushels of wheat as food for the people in his palace. He also gave him 115,000 gallons of oil that was made from pressed olives. He did that for Hiram year after year.
12
The LORD made Solomon wise, just as he had promised him. There was peace between Hiram and Solomon. The two of them made a peace treaty.
