2 Chronicles 2:2-4
International Children’s Bible
2 He chose 70,000 men to carry things. He chose 80,000 men to cut stone in the mountains. And he chose 3,600 men to direct the workers.
3 Then Solomon sent a message to Hiram king of the city of Tyre. Solomon said:
Help me as you helped my father David. You sent him cedar logs so he could build himself a palace to live in. 4 I will build a temple as a place to worship the Lord my God. And I will give this temple to the Lord. There we will burn sweet-smelling spices in his presence. We will set out the bread that shows we are in God’s presence. And we will burn sacrifices every morning and evening. We will worship him on Sabbath days and New Moons. And we will worship him on the other feast days the Lord our God has commanded us to celebrate. This is a rule for Israel to obey forever.
