and Gera, and Shephuphan, and Huram.

And Solomon sent unto Huram king of Tyre, saying, - As thou didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him a house to dwell in,

Then answered Huram king of Tyre, in writing, which he sent unto Solomon, - Because Yahweh hath loved his people, hath he set thee over them as king.

And Huram said, Blessed be Yahweh, God of Israel, who made the heavens and the earth, - who hath given, unto David the king, a wise son, skilled in prudence and understanding, who will build a house for Yahweh, and a house for his kingdom.

Now, therefore, have I sent a wise man, skilled in understanding, pertaining to Huram my father:

And Huram made - the pans, and the shovels, and the tossing bowls, - and Huram finished doing the work, which he did for King Solomon, in the house of God: -

and, the pans and the shovels and the flesh-hooks, and all the vessels, made Huram his father for King Solomon, for the house of Yahweh, - of burnished bronze,

that, the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, Solomon built them, - and caused, the sons of Israel, to dwell there.

And Huram sent him - by the hand of his servants - ships, and servants skilled in the sea, and they came, with the servants of Solomon, towards Ophir, and took from thence, four hundred and fifty talents of gold, - and brought unto King Solomon.

Moreover also, the servants of Huram, and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, brought sandal-wood and precious stones.

For, the ships of the king, used to go to Tarshish, with the servants of Huram, - once in three years, came in the ships of Tarshish, bearing gold and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.
