2 Chronicles 2:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ Hiram sent his answer back to Solomon:

I know that the Lord must love his people, because he has chosen you to be their king. ¹² Praise the Lord God of Israel who made heaven and earth! He has given David a son who isn't only wise and smart, but who has the knowledge to build a temple for the Lord and a palace for himself.

¹³ I am sending Huram Abi to you. He is wise and very skillful.
