And
Hiram sent to the

gold.

And this is the
reason of the
levy which
king Solomon raised; for to
build the
house of the
LORD, and his own
house, and
Millo, and the
wall of
Jerusalem, and
Hazor, and
Megiddo, and
Gezer.

For
Pharaoh king of
Egypt had gone
up, and
taken Gezer, and
burnt it with
fire, and
slain the
Canaanites that
dwelt in the
city, and
given it for a
present unto his
daughter, Solomon's wife.

And all the

that which

And all the
people that were

Their
children that were
left after them in the
land, whom the
children of
Israel also were not
able utterly to
destroy, upon those did
Solomon levy a
tribute of
bondservice unto this
day.

But of the
children of
Israel did
Solomon make no
bondmen: but they were
men of
war, and his
servants, and his
princes, and his
captains, and
rulers of his
chariots, and his
horsemen.

But
Pharaoh's daughter came
up out of the
city of

house which Solomon had
built for her: then did he
build Millo.

And
three times in a
year did
Solomon offer burnt
offerings and peace
offerings upon the
altar which he
built unto the
LORD, and he burnt
incense upon the
altar that was
before the
LORD. So he
finished the
house.
