1 Kings 5:4-6
Christian Standard Bible
4 The Lord my God has now given me rest on every side; there is no enemy or misfortune.(A) 5 So I plan to build a temple for the name of the Lord my God,(B) according to what the Lord promised my father David: ‘I will put your son on your throne in your place, and he will build the temple for my name.’(C)
6 “Therefore, command that cedars from Lebanon be cut down for me. My servants will be with your servants, and I will pay your servants’ wages according to whatever you say, for you know that not a man among us knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians.”(D)

New International Version
4 But now the Lord my God has given me rest(A) on every side, and there is no adversary(B) or disaster. 5 I intend, therefore, to build a temple(C) for the Name of the Lord my God, as the Lord told my father David, when he said, ‘Your son whom I will put on the throne in your place will build the temple for my Name.’(D)
6 “So give orders that cedars(E) of Lebanon be cut for me. My men will work with yours, and I will pay you for your men whatever wages you set. You know that we have no one so skilled in felling timber as the Sidonians.”
