1 Wafalme 5 : 6 1st Kings chapter 5 verse 6

Basi uamuru wanikatie mierezi ya Lebanoni; na watumishi wangu watafuatana na watumishi wako; na ujira wa watumishi wako nitakupa kama utakavyosema; kwa kuwa wajua ya kwamba hakuna kwetu mtu ajuaye kukata miti kama Wasidoni.
soma Mlango wa 5

Now therefore command you that they cut me cedar trees out of Lebanon; and my servants shall be with your servants; and I will give you hire for your servants according to all that you shall say: for you know that there is not among us any who knows how to cut timber like the Sidonians.
