7 Y como Hiram oyó las palabras de Salomón, holgóse en gran manera, y dijo: Bendito sea hoy Jehová, que dió hijo sabio á David sobre este pueblo tan grande.

8 Y envió Hiram á decir á Salomón: He oído lo que me mandaste [á decir]: yo haré todo lo que te pluguiere acerca de la madera de cedro, y la madera de haya.

9 Mis siervos la llevarán desde el Líbano á la mar; y yo la pondré en balsas por la mar hasta el lugar que tú me señalares, y allí se desatará, y tú la tomarás: y tú harás mi voluntad en dar de comer á mi familia.

10 Dió pues Hiram á Salomón madera de cedro y madera de haya todo lo que quiso.
