1 Now after the twenty years in which Solomon built the house of the Lord, and his own house,
2 Solomon also built the cities that Huram had given to him, and he settled the Israelites in them.
3 Solomon attacked Hamath Zobah and conquered it.
4 And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store cities that he built in Hamath.
5 Also he built Upper Beth Horon, and Lower Beth Horon, fortified cities, with walls, gates, and bars;
6 He also rebuilt Baalath and all the storage cities that he owned. He built all the cities for his chariots, all the cities for his warhorses, and whatever else he wanted to build in Jerusalem, Lebanon, or the entire territory that he governed.
7 And all the people that were left of the Hittites, Amorites, Perezites, Hivites and Jebusites, which were not of the children of Israel -
8 from the descendants who were left over after them in the land, whom the Israelites had not destroyed, Solomon conscripted them as forced labor until this day.
9 But Solomon made no servants of the sons of Israel for his work, but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10 And these were the chief of King Solomon's officers, two hundred and fifty who bore rule over the people.
11 Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the City of David to the house that he had built for her; for he said, "My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places where the ark of the LORD has come are holy."
12 Then Solomon offered holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of the Lord which he had built before the porch,
13 as was the daily requirement, to offer up according to the commandments of Moses for Sabbaths, new moon festivals, and the three annual feasts: the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Booths.
14 And according to the order of David his father, he appointed the divisions of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required; and the gatekeepers by their divisions at every gate; for so David the man of God had commanded.
15 And they did not turn aside from the king's command as to the priests and the Levites in regard to any matter, and to the treasures.
16 All of Solomon's work was carried out from the day the foundation of the LORD's Temple was laid until it was completed. the LORD's Temple was now complete.
17 Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber, and to Elath near the sea in the land of Edom.
18 And Huram sent him, by his servants, ships and experienced seamen, who went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir and came back with four hundred and fifty talents of gold, which they took to King Solomon.
