1 # And it came to pass at the end <07093> of twenty <06242> years <08141>, wherein Solomon <08010> had built <01129> (8804) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and his own house <01004>,
2 That the cities <05892> which Huram <02361> had restored <05414> (8804) to Solomon <08010>, Solomon <08010> built <01129> (8804) them, and caused the children <01121> of Israel <03478> to dwell <03427> (8686) there.
3 And Solomon <08010> went <03212> (8799) to Hamathzobah <02578>, and prevailed <02388> (8799) against it.
4 And he built <01129> (8799) Tadmor <08412> in the wilderness <04057>, and all the store <04543> cities <05892>, which he built <01129> (8804) in Hamath <02574>.
5 Also he built <01129> (8799) Bethhoron <01032> the upper <05945>, and Bethhoron <01032> the nether <08481> , fenced <04692> cities <05892>, with walls <02346>, gates <01817>, and bars <01280>;
6 And Baalath <01191>, and all the store <04543> cities <05892> that Solomon <08010> had, and all the chariot <07393> cities <05892>, and the cities <05892> of the horsemen <06571>, and all that Solomon <08010> desired <02836> (8804) <02837> to build <01129> (8800) in Jerusalem <03389>, and in Lebanon <03844>, and throughout all the land <0776> of his dominion <04475>.
7 As for all the people <05971> that were left <03498> (8737) of the Hittites <02850>, and the Amorites <0567>, and the Perizzites <06522>, and the Hivites <02340>, and the Jebusites <02983>, which were not of Israel <03478>,
8 But of their children <01121>, who were left <03498> (8738) after <0310> them in the land <0776>, whom the children <01121> of Israel <03478> consumed <03615> (8765) not, them did Solomon <08010> make to pay <05927> (8686) tribute <04522> until this day <03117>.
9 But of the children <01121> of Israel <03478> did Solomon <08010> make <05414> (8804) no servants <05650> for his work <04399>; but they were men <0582> of war <04421>, and chief <08269> of his captains <07991>, and captains <08269> of his chariots <07393> and horsemen <06571>.
10 And these were the chief <08269> of king <04428> Solomon's <08010> officers <05324> (8737) (8675) <05333>, even two hundred <03967> and fifty <02572>, that bare rule <07287> (8802) over the people <05971>.
11 And Solomon <08010> brought up <05927> (8689) the daughter <01323> of Pharaoh <06547> out of the city <05892> of David <01732> unto the house <01004> that he had built <01129> (8804) for her: for he said <0559> (8804), My wife <0802> shall not dwell <03427> (8799) in the house <01004> of David <01732> king <04428> of Israel <03478>, because the places are holy <06944>, whereunto the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> hath come <0935> (8804).
12 # Then Solomon <08010> offered <05927> (8689) burnt offerings <05930> unto the LORD <03068> on the altar <04196> of the LORD <03068>, which he had built <01129> (8804) before <06440> the porch <0197>,
13 Even after a certain rate <01697> every day <03117>, offering <05927> (8687) according to the commandment <04687> of Moses <04872>, on the sabbaths <07676>, and on the new moons <02320>, and on the solemn feasts <04150>, three <07969> times <06471> in the year <08141>, even in the feast <02282> of unleavened bread <04682>, and in the feast <02282> of weeks <07620> , and in the feast <02282> of tabernacles <05521>.
14 And he appointed <05975> (8686), according to the order <04941> of David <01732> his father <01>, the courses <04256> of the priests <03548> to their service <05656>, and the Levites <03881> to their charges <04931>, to praise <01984> (8763) and minister <08334> (8763) before the priests <03548>, as the duty <01697> of every day <03117> required <03117> : the porters <07778> also by their courses <04256> at every gate <08179>: for so had David <01732> the man <0376> of God <0430> commanded <04687>.
15 And they departed <05493> (8804) not from the commandment <04687> of the king <04428> unto the priests <03548> and Levites <03881> concerning any matter <01697>, or concerning the treasures <0214>.
16 Now all the work <04399> of Solomon <08010> was prepared <03559> (8735) unto the day <03117> of the foundation <04143> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and until it was finished <03615> (8800). So the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> was perfected <08003>.
17 Then went <01980> (8804) Solomon <08010> to Eziongeber <06100>, and to Eloth <0359>, at the sea <03220> side <08193> in the land <0776> of Edom <0123>.
18 And Huram <02361> sent <07971> (8799) him by the hands <03027> of his servants <05650> ships <0591> (8675) <0591>, and servants <05650> that had knowledge <03045> (8802) of the sea <03220>; and they went <0935> (8799) with the servants <05650> of Solomon <08010> to Ophir <0211>, and took <03947> (8799) thence four <0702> hundred <03967> and fifty <02572> talents <03603> of gold <02091>, and brought <0935> (8686) them to king <04428> Solomon <08010>.
