(1 Kings 9:10–28)
1
And after twentie yeere when Salomon had built the house of the Lord, and his owne house,
2
Then Salomon built the cities that Huram gaue to Salomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3
And Salomon went to Hamath Zobah, and ouercame it.
4
And he built Tadmor in the wildernesse, and repayred all the cities of store which hee built in Hamath.
5
And he built Beth-horon the vpper, and Beth-horon the nether, cities defensed with walles, gates and barres:
6
Also Baalath, and al the cities of store that Salomon had, and all the charet cities, and the cities of the horsemen, and euery pleasant place that Salomon had a minde to builde in Ierusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout all the lande of his dominion.
7
And all the people that were left to ye Hittites, and ye Amorites, and Perizzites, and the Hiuuites, and the Iebusites, which were not of Israel,
8
But of their children which were left after them in the lande, whome the children of Israel had not consumed, euen them did Salomon make tributaries vntill this day.
9
But of the children of Israel did Salomon make no seruantes for his worke: for they were men of warre, and his chiefe princes, and the captaines of his charets and of his horsemen.
10
So these were the chiefe of the officers which Salomon had, euen two hundreth and fiftie that bare rule ouer the people.
11
Then Salomon brought vp the daughter of Pharaoh out of the citie of Dauid, into the house that he had built for her: for he saide, My wife shall not dwel in the house of Dauid King of Israel: for it is holy, because that the Arke of the Lord came vnto it.
12
Then Salomon offered burnt offrings vnto the Lord, on the altar of the Lord, which he had built before the porche,
13
To offer according to the commandement of Moses euery day, in the Sabbaths, and in the newe moones, and in the solemne feastes, three times in the yeere, that is, in the feast of the Vnleauened bread, and in the feast of the Weekes, and in the feast of the Tabernacles.
14
And he set the courses of the Priestes to their offices, according to the order of Dauid his father, and the Leuites in their watches, for to praise and minister before the Priestes euery day, and the porters by their courses, at euery gate: for so was the commandement of Dauid the man of God.
15
And they declined not from the commandement of the King, concerning the Priests and the Leuites, touching al things, and touching the treasures.
16
Nowe Salomon had made prouision for all the worke, from the day of the foundation of the house of the Lord, vntill it was finished: so the house of the Lord was perfite.
17
Then went Salomon to Ezion-geber, and to Eloth by the sea side in the lande of Edom.
18
And Huram sent him by the handes of his seruants, shippes, and seruants that had knowledge of the sea: and they went with the seruants of Salomon to Ophir, and brought thence foure hundreth and fiftie talents of golde, and brought them to King Salomon.
(1 Kings 9:10–28)
1
At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the LORD’s house and his own house,
2
Solomon built the cities which Huram had given to Solomon, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there.
3
Solomon went to Hamath Zobah, and prevailed against it.
4
He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the storage cities, which he built in Hamath.
5
Also he built Beth Horon the upper and Beth Horon the lower, fortified cities with walls, gates, and bars;
6
and Baalath, and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots, the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build for his pleasure in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.
7
As for all the people who were left of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of Israel
8
of their children who were left after them in the land, whom the children of Israel didn’t consumeof them Solomon conscripted forced labor to this day.
9
But of the children of Israel, Solomon made no servants for his work, but they were men of war, chief of his captains, and rulers of his chariots and of his horsemen.
10
These were the chief officers of King Solomon, even two-hundred fifty, who ruled over the people.
11
Solomon brought up Pharaoh’s daughter out of David’s city 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 LORD’s ark has come are holy.”
12
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the LORD’s altar which he had built before the porch,
13
even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the commandment of Moses on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, and on the set feasts, three times per year, during the feast of unleavened bread, during the feast of weeks, and during the feast of booths.(a)
14
He appointed, according to the ordinance of David his father, the divisions 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 divisions at every gate, for David the man of God had so commanded.
15
They didn’t depart from the commandment of the king to the priests and Levites concerning any matter or concerning the treasures.
16
Now all the work of Solomon was accomplished from the day of the foundation of the LORD’s house until it was finished. So the LORD’s house was completed.
17
Then Solomon went to Ezion Geber and to Eloth, on the seashore in the land of Edom.
18
Huram sent him ships and servants who had knowledge of the sea by the hands of his servants; and they came with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and brought from there four hundred fifty talents (b) of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
