14:001:009 Now, O lord God, let thy promise unto David my father be
           established:  for thou hast made me king over a people like the
           dust of the earth in multitude.

14:001:010 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come
           in before this people:  for who can judge this thy people, that
           is so great?

14:001:011 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and
           thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of
           thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast
           asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge
           my people, over whom I have made thee king: 

14:001:012 Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give
           thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings
           have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any
           after thee have the like.

14:001:013 Then Solomon came from his journey to the high place that was
           at Gibeon to Jerusalem, from before the tabernacle of the
           congregation, and reigned over Israel.

14:001:014 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen:  and he had a
           thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand
           horsemen, which he placed in the chariot cities, and with the
           king at Jerusalem.

14:001:015 And the king made silver and gold at Jerusalem as plenteous as
           stones, and cedar trees made he as the sycomore trees that are
           in the vale for abundance.

14:001:016 And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and linen yarn: 
           the king’s merchants received the linen yarn at a price.

14:001:017 And they fetched up, and brought forth out of Egypt a chariot
           for six hundred shekels of silver, and an horse for an hundred
           and fifty:  and so brought they out horses for all the kings of
           the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, by their means.

14:002:001 And Solomon determined to build an house for the name of the
           lord, and an house for his kingdom.

14:002:002 And Solomon told out threescore and ten thousand men to bear
           burdens, and fourscore thousand to hew in the mountain, and
           three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.

14:002:003 And Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, As thou
           didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to
           build him an house to dwell therein, even so deal with me.

14:002:004 Behold, I build an house to the name of the lord my God, to
           dedicate it to him, and to burn before him sweet incense, and
           for the continual shewbread, and for the burnt offerings
           morning and evening, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons,
           and on the solemn feasts of the lord our God.  This is an
           ordinance for ever to Israel.
