Amplified Bible
1 Kings 9:10-14
10Now at the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the temple of the Lord and the palace of the king
11(Hiram king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with as much cedar and cypress timber [from Lebanon] and gold as he desired), at that time King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee (northern Israel).
12So Hiram came from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him, and they did not please him.
13He said, “What are these cities [good for] which you have given me, my brother?” So they have been called the land of Cabul (like nothing, unproductive) to this day.
14And Hiram sent to the king 120 talents of gold.
