2 CHR 8 ©

8At the end of twenty years, in the course of which Solomon had built the temple of the Eternal and his own palace, 2Solomon fortified the towns presented to him by Huram, and settled Israelites in them.

3Solomon attacked Hamath-Zobah and conquered it. 4He built Tadmor in the desert and also all his store-towns in Hamath; 5he built Beth-horon the upper and Beth-horon the lower, both fortified towns with walls, gates, and bars, 6also Baalath, all the store-towns, the towns for his chariots, the towns for his cavalry, and whatever he was pleased to build in Jerusalem, at Lebanon, and anywhere throughout his realm. 7Solomon raised a forced levy of labourers, as is done to this day, from the descendants of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, none of whom belonged to Israel-- 8survivors in the land 8 whom the Israelites had not destroyed. 9Solomon never forced Israelites to slave at his work; they were his soldiers and generals, chariot-leaders and cavalry-leaders. 10The following two hundred and fifty men were king Solomon’s officials, who superintended all the workmen . . .

11Solomon brought the Pharaoh’s daughter up from David’s burg to the palace he had built for her. “No wife of mine,” said he, “shall live in the residence of David king of Israel, for any spot where the ark of the Eternal has rested is sacred.”

12Then Solomon burned victims as sacrifices to the Eternal on the altar of the Eternal which he had built in front of the vestibule, 13sacrificing at the daily rate as laid down by Moses, on the sabbaths, at the new moon, and at the fixed festivals (three times a year, the festival of unleavened bread, the festival of Weeks, and the festival of Booths). 14He fixed, as appointed by his father David, the divisions of priests for their service, fixed the stations for the Levites to sing praise and attend the priests, as the day’s duty required, and also arranged the warders in divisions at each gate (for David the man of God had left these orders). 15The king’s orders for the priests and Levites were carried out faithfully in every detail, including the treasures. 16In this way Solomon’s work was completed, from the day when the foundations of the temple of the Eternal were laid to the completion of the temple.

17Then Solomon went to Ezion-geber and Eloth on the seacoast, in the land of Edom, 18where Huram had ships sent to him, and also expert seamen in his service, who accompanied Solomon’s men to Ophir and brought back to king Solomon over nineteen tons of gold.
