* And it came to pass at the end of twenty years , wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD , and his own house , * That the cities which Huram had restored to Solomon , Solomon built them , and caused the children of Israel to dwell there . * And Solomon went to Hamathzobah Chamath , and prevailed against it . * And he built Tadmor in the wilderness , and all the store cities , which he built in Hamath . * Also he built Bethhoron Beyththe upper , and Bethhoron Beyththe nether , fenced cities , with walls , gates , and bars ; * And Baalath Ba #alath #, 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 . * 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 Yisra #el #, * 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 . * But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work m @la #kah #; but they were men of war , and chief of his captains , and captains of his chariots and horsemen . * And these were the chief of king Solomons officers (8675 ), even two hundred and fifty , that bare rule over the people . * 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 Yisra #el #, because the places are holy , whereunto the ark of the LORD hath come . * Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the LORD on the altar of the LORD , which he had built before the porch , * 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 mow #ed #, three times in the year , even in the feast of unleavened bread , and in the feast of weeks , and in the feast of tabernacles . * 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 sha #ar #: for so had David the man of God commanded . * And they departed not from the commandment of the king unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter , or concerning the treasures . * 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 . * Then went Solomon to Eziongeber #Etsyown #Etsyon , and to Eloth , at the sea side in the land of Edom . * 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 .
