1 Kings 9:17-28
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.
