And Hiram H2438 king H4428 of Tyre H6865 sent H7971 his servants H5650 to Solomon; H8010 for he had heard H8085 that they had anointed H4886 him king H4428 in the room H8478 of his father: H1 for Hiram H2438 was ever H3605 H3117 a lover H157 of David. H1732

Then Huram H2438 the king H4428 of Tyre H6865 answered H559 in writing, H3791 which he sent H7971 to Solomon, H8010 Because the LORD H3068 has loved H160 his people, H5971 he has made H5414 you king H4427 over H5921 them.

Huram H2361 said H559 moreover, Blessed H1288 be the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 that made H6213 heaven H8064 and earth, H776 who H834 has given H5414 to David H1732 the king H4428 a wise H2450 son, H1121 endued H3045 with prudence H7922 and understanding, H998 that might build H1129 an house H1004 for the LORD, H3068 and an house H1004 for his kingdom. H4438

For in Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 neither G3777 circumcision G4061 avails G2480 any G5100 thing, nor G3777 uncircumcision; G203 but faith G4102 which works G1754 by love. G26

We know G1492 that we have passed G3327 from death G2288 to life, G2222 because G3754 we love G25 the brothers. G80 He that loves G25 not his brother G80 stays G3306 in death. G2288

Whoever G3956 G3588 believes G4100 that Jesus G2424 is the Christ G5547 is born G1080 of God: G2316 and every G3956 one that loves G25 him that begat G1080 loves G25 him also G2532 that is begotten G1080 of him.

For this G3778 is the love G26 of God, G2316 that we keep G5083 his commandments: G1785 and his commandments G1785 are not grievous. G926

Moreover, H5750 because I have set my affection H7521 to the house H1004 of my God, H430 I have H3426 of my own proper H5459 good, of gold H2091 and silver, H3701 which I have given H5414 to the house H1004 of my God, H430 over H5921 and above H4605 all H3605 that I have prepared H3559 for the holy H6944 house. H1004

The gold H2091 for things of gold, H2091 and the silver H3701 for things of silver, H3701 and for all H3605 manner of work H4399 to be made by the hands H3027 of artificers. H2796 And who H4310 then is willing H5068 to consecrate H4390 H3027 his service H3027 this day H3117 to the LORD? H3068

And gave H5414 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 of God H430 of gold H2091 five H2568 thousand H505 talents H3603 and ten H7239 thousand H7239 drams, H150 and of silver H3701 ten H6235 thousand H505 talents, H3603 and of brass H5178 eighteen H7239 H8083 thousand H7239 H505 talents, H3603 and one hundred H3967 thousand H7239 H505 talents H3603 of iron. H1270

Then the people H5971 rejoiced, H8055 for that they offered willingly, H5068 because H3588 with perfect H8003 heart H3820 they offered willingly H5068 to the LORD: H3068 and David H1732 the king H4428 also H1571 rejoiced H8055 with great H1419 joy. H8057

Blessed H1288 be the LORD H3068 God H430 of our fathers, H1 which H834 has put H5414 such a thing as this H2063 in the king's H4428 heart, H3820 to beautify H6286 the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 which H834 is in Jerusalem: H3389

And has extended H5186 mercy H2617 to me before H6440 the king, H4428 and his counsellors, H3289 and before H6440 all H3605 the king's H4428 mighty H1368 princes. H8269 And I was strengthened H2388 as the hand H3027 of the LORD H3068 my God H430 was on me, and I gathered H6908 together out of Israel H3478 chief H7218 men to go H5927 up with me.

My little G5040 children, G5040 let us not love G25 in word, G3056 neither G3366 in tongue; G1100 but in deed G2041 and in truth. G225

And hereby G1722 G5129 we know G1097 that we are of the truth, G225 and shall assure G3982 our hearts G2588 before G1715 him.
