15And this is the reasonH1697 of the levyH4522 which kingH4428 SolomonH8010 raisedH5927; for to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068, and his own houseH1004, and MilloH4407, and the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389, and HazorH2674, and MegiddoH4023, and GezerH1507. 16For PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 had gone upH5927, and takenH3920 GezerH1507, and burntH8313 it with fireH784, and slainH2026 the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in the cityH5892, and givenH5414 it for a presentH7964 unto his daughterH1323, Solomon’sH8010 wifeH802. 17And SolomonH8010 builtH1129 GezerH1507, and Beth–horonH1032 the netherH8481, 18And BaalathH1191, and TadmorH8412 in the wildernessH4057, in the landH776, 19And all the citiesH5892 of storeH4543 that SolomonH8010 had, and citiesH5892 for his chariotsH7393, and citiesH5892 for his horsemenH6571, and thatH2837 which SolomonH8010 desiredH2836 to buildH1129 in JerusalemH3389, and in LebanonH3844, and in all the landH776 of his dominionH4475.1
