11Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961 at the endH7093 of the twentyH6242 yearsH8141 in whichH834 SolomonH8010 had builtH1129 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 and his own houseH1004, 2that he builtH1129 the citiesH5892 whichH834 HuramH2361 had givenH5414 2him, and settledH3427 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 thereH8033.
3Then SolomonH8010 wentH1980 to Hamath-zobahH2578 and capturedH2388 it. 4He builtH1129 TadmorH8412 in the wildernessH4057 and allH3605 the storageH4543 citiesH5892 whichH834 he had builtH1129 in HamathH2574. 5He also builtH1129 upperH5945 3Beth-horonH1032 and lowerH8481 Beth-horonH1032, which were 4fortifiedH4692 citiesH5892 with wallsH2346, gatesH1817, and barsH1280; 6and BaalathH1191 and allH3605 the storageH4543 citiesH5892 that SolomonH8010 hadH1961, and allH3605 the citiesH5892 for 5his chariotsH7393 and citiesH5892 for 6his horsemenH6571, and everythingH3605 that it pleasedH2836H2837 SolomonH8010 to buildH1129 in JerusalemH3389, LebanonH3844, and allH3605 the landH776 7under his ruleH4475.
78AllH3605 of the peopleH5971 who were leftH3498 of the HittitesH2850, the AmoritesH567, the PerizzitesH6522, the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, whoH834 were not of IsraelH3478, 8that is, from their descendantsH1121 whoH834 were leftH3498 afterH310 them in the landH776, whomH834 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 had not destroyedH3615, 9SolomonH8010 raisedH5927 them as forcedH4522 laborersH4522 to thisH2088 dayH3117. 9But SolomonH8010 did not makeH5414 slavesH5650 from the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 for his workH4399; for they were menH376 of warH4421, his chiefH8269 captainsH7991 and commandersH8269 of his chariotsH7393 and his horsemenH6571.
