2 Chronicles 8:1-9
1And it came to pass at the endH7093 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141, wherein SolomonH8010 had builtH1129 the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and his own houseH1004, 2that the citiesH5892 which HuramH2361 had givenH5414 to SolomonH8010, SolomonH8010 builtH1129 them, and caused the children of IsraelH3478 to dwellH3427 there.
3And SolomonH8010 went to Hamath-zobah, and prevailedH2388 against it. 4And he builtH1129 TadmorH8412 in the wildernessH4057, and all the store-cities, which he builtH1129 in HamathH2574. 5Also he builtH1129 Beth-horonH1032 the upperH5945, and Beth-horonH1032 the nether, fortified citiesH5892, with wallsH2346, gates, and barsH1280; 6and BaalathH1191, and all the store-cities that SolomonH8010 had, and all the citiesH5892 for his chariotsH7393, and the citiesH5892 for his horsemenH6571, and all that SolomonH8010 desired to buildH1129 for his pleasure in JerusalemH3389, and in LebanonH3844, and in all the landH776 of his dominion.
7As for all the peopleH5971 that were leftH3498 of the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, that were not of IsraelH3478; 8of their children that were leftH3498 after them in the landH776, whom the children of IsraelH3478 consumed not, of them did SolomonH8010 raise a levy of bondservants unto this dayH3117. 9But of the children of IsraelH3478 did SolomonH8010 makeH5414 no servantsH5650 for his workH4399; but they were menH376 of warH4421, and chiefH8269 of his captains, and rulers of his chariotsH7393 and of his horsemenH6571.
