If you are really too lazy to convert it yourself I've left a copy on my downloads server here: http://downloads.bodhilinux.com/jeff91/misc/jdk_1.7.0-1_i386...

Those are openjdk 7 ones, not the Oracle packages. There are some non-free parts in latter and other differences between the two packages.
