8 Then he sent this message to Solomon: "I received your request for the cedars and cypresses. It's as good as done--your wish is my command. 9 My lumberjacks will haul the timbers from the Lebanon forest to the sea, assemble them into log rafts, float them to the place you set, then have them disassembled for you to haul away. All I want from you is that you feed my crew." 10 In this way Hiram supplied all the cedar and cypress timber that Solomon wanted.
