And we will cut wood out of Lebanon, as much as thou shalt need: and we will bring it to thee in floats by sea to Joppa; and thou shalt carry it up to Jerusalem.

Verse 16 is found in chapter 2 of 2 Chronicles. Hiram responds favorably and recognizes the wisdom God has given Solomon. Workers and resources are established for the construction. Cooperation between Israel and Tyre shows that the temple project has an international dimension, while the organization of the workers reveals that worship requires both spiritual dedication and practical planning.

Y nosotros cortaremos en el Líbano la madera que hubieres menester, y te la traeremos en balsas por la mar hasta Joppe, y tú la harás llevar hasta Jerusalem.
Et nous, nous couperons des bois du Liban autant que tu en auras besoin; nous te les expédierons par mer en radeaux jusqu'à Japho, et tu les feras monter à Jérusalem.
E noi taglieremo dal Libano del legname quanto avrai bisogno, e te lo condurremo per foderi in sul mare, fino a Iafo; e di là tu lo farai trasportare in Gerusalemme.
E nós cortaremos tanta madeira no Líbano, quanta houveres mister, e ta traremos em jangadas pelo mar até Jope, e tu a farás subir a Jerusalém.
我們必照你所需用的,從 黎巴嫩 砍伐樹木,紮成筏子,浮海運到 約帕 ;你可以從那裏運到 耶路撒冷 。」
