8 And send me timbers of cedar,+ juniper+ and algum*+ from Lebʹa·non,+ for I myself well know that your servants are experienced* at cutting down the trees of Lebʹa·non,+ (and here my servants are together with your servants,)
7 And they proceeded to give money+ to the cutters+ and to the craftsmen,+ and eatables+ and drink and oil+ to the Si·doʹni·ans+ and the Tyrʹi·ans,+ to bring cedar timbers from Lebʹa·non+ to the sea at Jopʹpa,+ according to the permission granted by Cyrus+ the king of Persia to them.
