11:009:008 And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it
           shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why
           hath the lord done thus unto this land, and to this house?

11:009:009 And they shall answer, Because they forsook the lord their
           God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt,
           and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them,
           and served them:  therefore hath the lord brought upon them all
           this evil.

11:009:010 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon
           had built the two houses, the house of the lord, and the
           king’s house,

11:009:011 (Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar
           trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his
           desire,) that then king Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in
           the land of Galilee.

11:009:012 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon
           had given him; and they pleased him not.

11:009:013 And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me,
           my brother?  And he called them the land of Cabul unto this
           day.

11:009:014 And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.

11:009:015 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.

11:009:016 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.

11:009:017 And Solomon built Gezer, and Bethhoron the nether,

11:009:018 And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,

11:009:019 And all the cities of store that Solomon had, and cities for
           his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which
           Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in
           all the land of his dominion.

11:009:020 And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites,
           Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, which were not of the
           children of Israel,

11:009:021 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.

11:009:022 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.
