1 Kings 10:25-29

25Every man would bring his annual tribute: items of silver and gold, clothing, weapons, spices, and horses and mules.

26Solomon accumulated 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horsemen and stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.

27The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedar as abundant as sycamore in the Judean foothills.

28Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and Kue. The king’s traders bought them from Kue at the going price.

29A chariot was imported from Egypt for fifteen pounds of silver, and a horse for four pounds. In the same way, they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Aram through their agents.
