Chapter 8
And
it
came
to
pass
at
the
end
of
twenty
years,
wherein
Solomon
had
built
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
his
own
house,
2
That
the
cities
which
Huram
had
restored
to
Solomon,
Solomon
built
them,
and
caused
the
children
of
Israel
to
dwell
there.
3
And
Solomon
went
to
Hamath-zobah,
and
prevailed
against
it.
4
And
he
built
Tadmor
in
the
wilderness,
and
all
the
store
cities,
which
he
built
in
Hamath.
5
Also
he
built
Beth-horon
the
upper,
and
Beth-horon
the
nether,
fenced
cities,
with
walls,
gates,
and
bars;
6
And
Baalath,
and
all
the
store
cities
that
Solomon
had,
and
all
the
chariot
cities,
and
the
cities
of
the
horsemen,
and
all
that
Solomon
desired
to
build
in
Jerusalem,
and
in
Lebanon,
and
throughout
all
the
land
of
his
dominion.
7
As
for
all
the
people
that
were
left
of
the
Hittites,
and
the
Amorites,
and
the
Perizzites,
and
the
Hivites,
and
the
Jebusites,
which
were
not
of
Israel,
8
But
of
their
children,
who
were
left
after
them
in
the
land,
whom
the
children
of
Israel
consumed
not,
them
did
Solomon
make
to
pay
tribute
until
this
day.
9
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
captains
of
his
chariots
and
horsemen.
10
And
these
were
the
chief
of
king
Solomon’s
officers,
even
two
hundred
and
fifty,
that
bare
rule
over
the
people.
11
And
Solomon
brought
up
the
daughter
of
Pharaoh
out
of
the
city
of
David
unto
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
are
holy,
whereunto
the
ark
of
the
Lord
hath
come.
12
Then
Solomon
offered
burnt
offerings
unto
the
Lord
on
the
altar
of
the
Lord,
which
he
had
built
before
the
porch,
13
Even
after
a
certain
rate
every
day,
offering
according
to
the
commandment
of
Moses,
on
the
sabbaths,
and
on
the
new
moons,
and
on
the
solemn
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.
14
And
he
appointed,
according
to
the
order
of
David
his
father,
the
courses
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:
the
porters
also
by
their
courses
at
every
gate:
for
so
had
David
the
man
of
God
commanded.
15
And
they
departed
not
from
the
commandment
of
the
king
unto
the
priests
and
Levites
concerning
any
matter,
or
concerning
the
treasures.
16
Now
all
the
work
of
Solomon
was
prepared
unto
the
day
of
the
foundation
of
the
house
of
the
Lord,
and
until
it
was
finished.
So
the
house
of
the
Lord
was
perfected.
17
Then
went
Solomon
to
Ezion-geber,
and
to
Eloth,
at
the
sea
side
in
the
land
of
Edom.
18
And
Huram
sent
him
by
the
hands
of
his
servants
ships,
and
servants
that
had
knowledge
of
the
sea;
and
they
went
with
the
servants
of
Solomon
to
Ophir,
and
took
thence
four
hundred
and
fifty
talents
of
gold,
and
brought
them
to
king
Solomon.
