1 Kings 9:10-13

10And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of Yhwh, and the king’s house, 11(Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desire,) that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee. 12And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him; and they pleased him not.1 13And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this day.2
