And King Solomon sent and brought Hiram out of Tyre.
And Hiram made the vessels and the shovels and the basins.
So Hiram finished all the work that he did for Solomon on the house of the Lord (Yahweh):
and the vessels and the shovels and the bowls. All the utensils that Hiram made for King Solomon in the house of the Lord (Yahweh) were of polished bronze.
Therefore, I am now sending an artistically gifted and knowledgeable man, Choram-Avi. [In a similar way to how Bezalel led the work on the tabernacle (Ex. 31:1–11), cf. 1 Kings 7:14.]
In addition, Choram [Choram-Avi] made the ash pans, the shovels, and the bowls.
Thus Hiram [Choram-Avi] completed the work he was to do for King Solomon in the house of God.
[Here the spellings Choram and Hiram are used, but both refer to the same person, Choram-Avi, see 2 Chron. 2:13. He should not be confused with the king of Tyre, who also goes by the same two names, Choram/Chiram, see 2 Sam. 5:11; 2 Chron. 2:11.]
The ash pans, the shovels, the forks, and all the utensils that belonged to them, Choram-Aviv made for King Solomon for the house of the Lord (Yahweh). Everything was of polished copper.
