2 Chronicles 8:1-9
1And it came to pass at the endH7093 of twentyH6242 yearsH8141, in which SolomonH8010 had builtH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and his own houseH1004,
2That the citiesH5892 which HuramH2361 had restoredH5414 to SolomonH8010, SolomonH8010 builtH1129 them, and caused the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 to dwellH3427 there.
3And SolomonH8010 wentH3212 to HamathzobahH2578, and prevailedH2388 against it.
4And he builtH1129 TadmorH8412 in the wildernessH4057, and all the storeH4543 citiesH5892, which he builtH1129 in HamathH2574.
5Also he builtH1129 BethhoronH1032 the upperH5945, and BethhoronH1032 the lowerH8481, fortifiedH4692 citiesH5892, with wallsH2346, gatesH1817, and barsH1280;
6And BaalathH1191, and all the storeH4543 citiesH5892 that SolomonH8010 had, and all the chariotH7393 citiesH5892, and the citiesH5892 of the horsemenH6571, and all that SolomonH8010 desiredH2836H2837 to buildH1129 in JerusalemH3389, and in LebanonH3844, and throughout all the landH776 of his dominionH4475.1
7As for all the peopleH5971 that were leftH3498 of the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, and the PerizzitesH6522, and the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983, who were not of IsraelH3478,
8But of their childrenH1121, who were leftH3498 afterH310 them in the landH776, whom the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 consumedH3615 not, them did SolomonH8010 force to payH5927 tributeH4522 until this dayH3117.
9But of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 did SolomonH8010 makeH5414 no servantsH5650 for his workH4399; but they were menH582 of warH4421, and chiefH8269 of his captainsH7991, and captainsH8269 of his chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571.
