Biblia Brzeska (1563)
Słudzy moi wywiozą drzewo z Libanu aż do morza, a ja je złożywszy w trafty puszczę morzem, aż do miejsca, gdzie mi rozkażesz i tamże je będę składał, a ty je będziesz brał, a tylko dla mnie uczynisz, że dasz żywność czeladzi mojej.
Biblia Gdańska (1632)
Słudzy moi zwiozą je z Libanu do morza, a ja je każę złożyć w tratwy, i spuścić morzem aż do miejsca, o którem mi dasz znać, i tam je rozwiążę, a ty je pobierzesz. Ty też uczynisz wolą moję, a dasz obrok czeladzi mojej.
Nowe Przymierze Zaremba
Moi słudzy sprowadzą je z Libanu nad morze, gdzie każę powiązać je w tratwy i przesłać na wyznaczone przez ciebie miejsce. Tam zostaną rozwiązane i stamtąd je sobie zabierzesz. W zamian za to ty spełnisz moje życzenie, to jest zaopatrzysz w żywność mój dwór.
Biblia Tysiąclecia
Słudzy moi zwiozą je z Libanu do morza, a ja je każę złożyć w tratwy, i spuścić morzem aż do miejsca, o którem mi dasz znać, i tam je rozwiążę, a ty je pobierzesz. Ty też uczynisz wolą moję, a dasz obrok czeladzi mojej.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Lebanon: Deuteronomy 3:25

and I will: 2 Chronicles 2:16

appoint: Heb. send

in giving food: 2 Chronicles 1:15, Ezra 3:7, Ezekiel 27:17, Acts 12:20

Reciprocal: 2 Samuel 5:11 - Hiram 1 Kings 9:27 - his servants 1 Chronicles 14:1 - and timber

Gill's Notes on the Bible

My servants shall bring [them] down from Lebanon unto the sea,.... The Mediterranean sea, on which Tyre stood:

and I will convey them by sea in floats; which were either a sort of carriage for the timber the Tyrians and Sidonians had, being furnished with various navigable vessels; or these were the timber itself, and the planks of it, which being fastened together, were set afloat under the direction of some boats with oars, of which they had plenty:

unto the place that thou shalt appoint me; which was Joppa, as appears from 2 Chronicles 2:16; belonging to the land of Israel, in the same sea:

and will cause them to be discharged there; either to be unloaded from the vessels, or to be unloosed and taken up separately:

and thou shalt receive [them]; by his servants appointed there to bring them to Jerusalem, which was forty miles from Joppa:

and thou shalt accomplish my desire in giving food for my household; signifying, that all that he desired in return was, that he would supply him with corn or wheat, which he stood in need of, and his letter in Josephus d expresses; and we find in later times this place was supplied with bread corn from Judea, see Ezra 3:7

Acts 12:20.

d Ut supra. (Antiqu. l. 8. c. 2. sect. 8.)

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the marginal reference. The timber was first carried westward from the flanks of Lebanon to the nearest part of the coast, where it was collected into floats, or rafts, which were then conveyed southward along the coast to Joppa, now Jaffa, from where the land journey to Jerusalem was not more than about forty miles. A similar course was taken on the building of the second temple Ezra 3:7.

Food for my household - The Phoenician cities had very little arable territory of their own, the mountain range of Lebanon rising rapidly behind them; and they must always have imported the chief part of their sustenance from abroad. They seem commonly to have derived it from Judaea (marginal references). Hiram agreed now to accept for his timber and for the services of his workmen 1 Kings 5:6 a certain annual payment of grain and oil, both of them the best of their kind, for the sustentation of his court. This payment was entirely distinct from the supplies furnished to the workmen (marginal reference “l”).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Kings 5:9. Shall bring them down from Lebanon unto the sea — As the river Adonis was in the vicinity of the forest of Lebanon, and emptied itself into the Mediterranean sea, near Biblos, Hiram could transport the timber all squared, and not only cut to scantling, but cut so as to occupy the place it was intended for in the building, without any farther need of axe or saw. It might be readily sent down the coast on rafts and landed at Joppa, or Jamnia, just opposite to Jerusalem, at the distance of about twenty-five miles. See 2 Chronicles 2:16. The carriage could not be great, as the timber was all fitted for the building where it was hewn down. The materials had only to be put together when they arrived at Jerusalem. See 1 Kings 6:7.
