2 Chronicles 8:1-6

1After twenty years, during which Solomon built the Lord’s temple and his royal palace,

2Solomon rebuilt the cities that Huram had given him and settled Israelites there.

3Solomon went to Hamath Zobah and seized it.

4He built up Tadmor in the wilderness and all the storage cities he had built in Hamath.

5He made upper Beth Horon and lower Beth Horon fortified cities with walls and barred gates,

6and built up Baalath, all the storage cities that belonged to him, and all the cities where chariots and horses were kept. He built whatever he wanted in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout his entire kingdom.
