1 Kings 9:15-16

15Now this is the account of the forced labor which King Solomon 1conscripted to build the house of the Lord, his own house, the 23Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, 4Hazor, 5Megiddo, and 6Gezer.

16For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and overthrown Gezer and burned it with fire, and killed the 7Canaanites who lived in the city; and he had 8given it as a dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.
