2 Chronicles 2:4

²And Solomon sent to Hiram king of Tyre, saying, Whereas thou didst deal favorably with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build for himself a house to dwell in,

³behold, I also his son am building a house to the name of the Lord my God, to consecrate it to him, to burn incense before him, and to offer showbread continually, and to offer up whole burnt offerings continually morning and evening, and on the Sabbaths, and at the new moons, and at the feasts of the Lord our God: this is a perpetual statute for Israel.

— 2 Chronicles 2:4 —

⁵And who will be able to build him a house? for the heaven and heaven of heavens do not bear his glory: and who am I, that I should build him a house, save only to burn incense before him?

⁶And now send me a man wise and skilled to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and in scarlet, and in blue, and one that knows how to grave together with the craftsmen who are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, which materials my father David prepared.
