1 Kgs 5:71 Kgs 5:9
And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, I have considered the things which thou sentest to me for: and I will do all thy desire concerning timber of cedar, and concerning timber of fir.
"And Hiram sent to Solomon, saying, 'I have heard the message which you have sent to me; I am ready to do all you desire in the matter of cedar and cypress timber.'" — Hiram commits to supplying *cedar* (*araz*) and *cypress* (*berosh*). The phrase *'anokhi 'aseh et-kol-chitzonka* (I am ready to do all you desire) indicates *full compliance* with Solomon's request. The Phoenician king becomes Solomon's *partner* in the temple project.
