And
it
came
to
pass
at the end of twenty years ,
wherein
Solomon had built the house of Jehovah,
and his own house
,
Now
at the end of the
twenty years during
which
Solomon had built the house of the
LORD
and his own palace
,
that
the cities which
Huram
had given to
Solomon,
Solomon
built
them,
and caused
the
children
of
Israel
to
dwell
there.
Solomon
rebuilt
the cities Hiram
had given him
and settled
Israelites
there.
And
Solomon went to Hamath-zobah ,
and prevailed
against
it.
Then
Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and captured
it.
And
he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and
all the store -
cities ,
which
he built in Hamath.
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, in
addition
to
all the store cities that
he had
built in Hamath.
Also
he built
Beth-horon
the
upper ,
and Beth-horon the
nether,
fortified cities ,
with walls, gates, and bars ;
He rebuilt
Upper and Lower
Beth-horon as
fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars ,
and
Baalath, and
all the store -
cities that Solomon had
, and all the cities for his chariots ,
and the
cities
for
his
horsemen,
and
all
that
Solomon
desired to build for
his
pleasure
in Jerusalem, and
in
Lebanon, and in
all
the land of his dominion.

desired to build in Jerusalem, Lebanon, and throughout
the land of his dominion.
As for all the people that
were
left
of the Hittites, and
the
Amorites, and
the
Perizzites, and
the
Hivites, and the
Jebusites ,
that
were not of
Israel;
As for all the people who
remained
of the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites (the
people
who
were not Israelites)—
of
their children
that
were
left
after
them
in the land, whom the children
of
Israel
consumed
not,
of
them
did
Solomon raise
a
levy
`of
bondservants'
unto
this day.
their descendants
who
remained
in the land, those
whom the Israelites
were
unable
to
destroy—
Solomon conscripted
these
people
to
be
forced
laborers,
as
they
are
to
this day.
But of the children
of
Israel
did
Solomon
make
no
servants
for
his
work;
but
they were men of war, and
chief
of
his captains, and rulers
of his chariots and of
his
horsemen
.
But Solomon
did
not
consign
any
of the Israelites
to
slave
labor,
because
they were his
men of war, his officers
and
captains, and the
commanders
of his chariots and cavalry
.
And
these
were the chief officers of
king Solomon ,
even
two
hundred
and
fifty,
that
bare
rule
over
the
people
.
They
were also
the chief officers for
King Solomon :
250
supervisors
.

holy,
whereunto
the ark of Jehovah
hath
come
.
Solomon brought the daughter of Pharaoh up
from
the City of David to
the palace
he had built for her .
For he said, “
My wife must
not live
in the house of David king of Israel, because the places the ark of the
LORD
has
entered
are
holy
. ”
Then
Solomon offered burnt -
offerings unto
Jehovah
on the altar of Jehovah,
which
he had built before
the porch,
At
that
time
Solomon offered burnt offerings to
the
LORD
on the altar of the
LORD
he had built in
front
of
the portico.
even
as
the duty
of
every
day
required,
offering
according to the commandment of Moses ,
on
the
sabbaths, and
on
the
new moons, and on
the set
feasts,
three times
in
the
year,
`even'
in
the feast of unleavened bread, and
in
the feast of weeks, and in
the feast of tabernacles.
He
observed
the daily
requirement
for
offerings
according to the commandment of Moses for
Sabbaths, New Moons, and the three annual
appointed
feasts—
the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Tabernacles.
And
he
appointed,
according
to
the ordinance
of David
his father, the courses
of the priests to
their service, and the Levites to
their offices,
to praise ,
and to minister before the priests ,
as
the
duty
of
every
day
required;
the doorkeepers
also by their courses
at every
gate :
for so
had David the man of God commanded
.
In
keeping
with
the ordinances
of his father David
, Solomon
appointed
the divisions
of the priests over
their service, and the Levites for
their duties
to offer
praise and to minister before the priests according
to
the daily
requirement.
He
also appointed
gatekeepers
by their divisions
at each
gate ,
for this
had been
the
command
of
David ,
the man of God.
And
they departed
not from the commandment
of
the
king
unto
the priests and
Levites concerning
any matter ,
or
concerning the treasures
.
They did
not turn
aside
from the king’s
command
regarding
the priests or
the
Levites or
any matter concerning the treasuries
.
Now
all the work of Solomon was prepared
unto
the day of
the foundation of
the house of Jehovah,
and
until it was finished. `
So '
the house of Jehovah
was completed.
Thus
all the work of Solomon was carried
out,
from
the day the foundation was
laid
for
the house of the
LORD
until it was finished. So the house of the
LORD
was completed.
Then went
Solomon to Ezion-geber ,
and to Eloth ,
on the seashore
in
the
land
of Edom.

to Ezion-geber and to Eloth on the coast
of Edom.
And
Huram
sent him by the
hands
of
his servants ships
, and
servants
that
had
knowledge
of the
sea;
and
they came
with the
servants of
Solomon
to Ophir ,
and fetched
from thence
four
hundred
and
fifty
talents of gold, and
brought
them
to king Solomon.
So
Hiram
sent him ships
captained
by his servants, along
with
crews
of experienced
sailors.
They went
with Solomon’s
servants to Ophir and acquired
from there
450
talents of gold, which
they
delivered
to King Solomon.
