1 Kings 9:11-15
11(Hiram king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and juniper timber and gold, 1satisfying all his desire), that King Solomon then gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee. 12So Hiram left Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him, and they 2did not please him. 13And he said, “What are these cities which you have given me, my brother?” So 3they have been called the land of 45Cabul to this day. 146And Hiram sent to the king 7120 talents of gold.
15Now this is the account of the forced labor which King Solomon 8conscripted to build the house of the Lord, his own house, the 910Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, 11Hazor, 12Megiddo, and 13Gezer.
