1 Kings 9:10-28
10And it came to pass at the endH7097 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141, when SolomonH8010 had builtH1129 the twoH8147 housesH1004, the houseH1004 of Jehovah and the king's houseH1004, 11HiramH2438 the kingH4428 of TyreH6865 having furnished SolomonH8010 with cedar-trees and cypress-trees, and with goldH2091, according to all his desireH2656, — that thenH227 kingH4428 SolomonH8010 gaveH5414 HiramH2438 twentyH6242 citiesH5892 in the landH776 of GalileeH1551. 12And HiramH2438 cameH3318 out from TyreH6865 to seeH7200 the citiesH5892 that SolomonH8010 had givenH5414 him; and they did not please him. 13And he saidH559, What citiesH5892 are these which thou hast givenH5414 me, my brotherH251? And he calledH7121 them the landH776 of CabulH3521 to this dayH3117. 14And HiramH2438 had sentH7971 to the kingH4428 oneH3967 hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 talentsH3603 of goldH2091. 15And this is the account of the levy which kingH4428 SolomonH8010 raised, to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and his own houseH1004, and MilloH4407, and the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389, and HazorH2674, and MegiddoH4023, and GezerH1507. 16— PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 had goneH5927 up and takenH3920 GezerH1507, and burnedH8313 it with fireH784, and slainH2026 the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in the cityH5892, and givenH5414 it as a dowry to his daughterH1323, Solomon's wifeH802. 17— And SolomonH8010 builtH1129 GezerH1507, and lower Beth-horonH1032, 18and BaalathH1191, and Tadmor in the wildernessH4057, in the landH776, 19and all the store-cities that SolomonH8010 had, and citiesH5892 for chariotsH7393, and citiesH5892 for the horsemenH6571, and that which SolomonH8010 desired to buildH1129 in JerusalemH3389, and on LebanonH3844, and in all the landH776 of his dominionH4475. 20All the peopleH5971 that were leftH3498 of the AmoritesH567, the HittitesH2850, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the children of IsraelH3478, 21their children that were leftH3498 after them in the landH776, whom the children of IsraelH3478 were not ableH3201 utterly to destroyH2763, upon them did SolomonH8010 impose a tribute of bondservice until this dayH3117. 22But of the children of IsraelH3478 did SolomonH8010 makeH5414 no bondmen; but they were menH376 of warH4421, and his servantsH5650, and his chiefsH8269, and his captains, and captains of his chariotsH7393, and his horsemenH6571. 23These were the chiefH8269 superintendents that were over Solomon's workH4399, fiveH2568 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572, that ruled over the peopleH5971 that wrought in the workH4399. 24But Pharaoh's daughterH1323 cameH5927 up out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 to her houseH1004 which he had builtH1129 for her: thenH227 he builtH1129 MilloH4407. 25And threeH7969 timesH6471 in the yearH8141 did SolomonH8010 offer up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings upon the altarH4196 that he had builtH1129 to Jehovah, and he burned incenseH6999 upon that which was before Jehovah. So he finished the houseH1004. 26And kingH4428 SolomonH8010 madeH6213 a fleet of shipsH590 in Ezion-GeberH6100, which is beside Eloth, on the shoreH8193 of the Red SeaH3220, in the landH776 of EdomH123. 27And HiramH2438 sentH7971 in the fleet his servantsH5650, shipmen that had knowledge of the seaH3220, with the servantsH5650 of SolomonH8010; 28and they wentH935 to OphirH211, and fetched thence goldH2091, fourH702 hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 talentsH3603, and broughtH935 it to kingH4428 SolomonH8010.
