1Huram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, along with cedar trees, masons, and carpenters to build a house for him.2David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel, for his kingdom had been lifted up on high for the sake of his people Israel.3David took more wives in Jerusalem, and he begot more sons and daughters.4These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shimea, Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon.5He chose Elishua and Elpelet.6Nogah, Nepheg, and Japhia.7Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
