And it came to passat the endof twentyyears, whereinSolomonhad builtthe houseof the LORD, and his own house, That the citieswhichHuramhad restoredto Solomon, Solomonbuiltthem, and caused the childrenof Israelto dwellthere. And Solomonwentto Hamath-zobah, and prevailedagainstit. And he builtTadmorin the wilderness, and allthe storecities, whichhe builtin Hamath. Also he builtBeth-horon the upper, and Beth-horon the nether, fencedcities, with walls, gates, and bars; And Baalath, and allthe storecitiesthatSolomonhad, and allthe chariotcities, and the citiesof the horsemen, and allthatSolomondesiredto buildin Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout allthe landof his dominion. As for allthe people that were leftofthe Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which were notof Israel, But oftheir children, whowere leftafterthem in the land, whomthe childrenof Israelconsumednot, them did Solomonmake to paytributeuntilthisday. But ofthe childrenof Israeldid Solomonmakenoservantsfor his work; butthey were menof war, and chiefof his captains, and captainsof his chariotsand horsemen. And these were the chiefof kingSolomon's officers, even two hundredand fifty, that bore ruleover the people. And Solomonbrought upthe daughterof Pharaohout of the cityof Davidunto the housethathe had builtfor her: forhe said, My wifeshall notdwellin the houseof Davidkingof Israel, because the places are holy, whereuntothe arkof the LORDhath come. ThenSolomonofferedburnt offeringsunto the LORDonthe altarof the LORD, whichhe had builtbeforethe porch, Even after a certain rateevery day, offeringaccording to the commandmentof Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, threetimesin the year, even in the feastof unleavened bread, and in the feastof weeks, and in the feastof tabernacles.
