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.
