14:008:007 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,
14:008:008 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.
14:008:009 But of the children of Israel did Solomon
make no servants for
his
work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains,
and
captains of his chariots and horsemen.
14:008:010 And these were the chief of king Solomon’s
officers, even two
hundred
and fifty, that bare rule over the people.
14:008:011 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,
because the places are holy, whereunto the ark of the
lord
hath come.
14:008:012 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto
the lord on the
altar
of the lord, which he had built before the porch,
14:008:013 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, three times in the year, even
in the
feast
of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and
in
the
feast of tabernacles.
14:008:014 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: for so had David the man of God
commanded.
14:008:015 And they departed not from the commandment
of the king unto
the
priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning
the
treasures.
14:008:016 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.
14:008:017 Then went Solomon to Eziongeber, and to
Eloth, at the sea side
in
the land of Edom.
14:008:018 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.
