5 Se, derfor har jeg i Sinde at bygge HERREN min Guds Navn et Hus efter HERRENs Ord til min Fader David: Din Søn, som jeg sætter på din Trone i dit Sted, han skal bygge Huset for mit Navn.

6 Giv derfor Ordre til, at der fældes Cedre til mig på Libanon. Mine Folk skal arbejde sammen med dine, og jeg vil give dineFolk den Løn, du kræver; thi du ved jo, at der ikke findes nogen hos os, der kan fælde Træer som Zidonierne!"

9 mine Folk skal bringe dem fra Libanon ned til Havet, og så skal jeg lade dem samle til Tømmerflåder på Havet og sende dem til det Sted, du anviser mig; der skal jeg lade dem skille ad, så at du kan lade dem hente. Men du vil da også opfylde mit Ønske og sende Fødevarer til mit Hof!"
