New Living Translation
1 Kings 9:11-13
11he gave twenty towns in the land of Galilee to King Hiram of Tyre. (Hiram had previously provided all the cedar and cypress timber and gold that Solomon had requested.)
12But when Hiram came from Tyre to see the towns Solomon had given him, he was not at all pleased with them.
13“What kind of towns are these, my brother?” he asked. So Hiram called that area Cabul (which means “worthless”), as it is still known today.
