Solomon's building and workforce
At the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the temple of the Lord and his own house, Solomon rebuilt the cities Huram had restored to him and settled Israelites in them. Solomon went to Hamathzobah and won against it. He built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store cities he built in Hamath. He built Upper Bethhoron too and Lower Bethhoron, fortified cities with walls, gates and bars, And Baalath and all the store cities Solomon had, and all the chariot cities and the cities of the horsemen, and everything Solomon wanted to build in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and through all the land of his rule. As for all the people left of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who weren't of Israel — Of their children who were left after them in the land, who the Israelites hadn't finished off, Solomon made them pay tribute to this day. But Solomon didn't make servants of the Israelites for his work. But they were men of war and chief of his commanders, and commanders of his chariots and horsemen. These were the chief of King Solomon's officers, two hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people. Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the City of David to the house he'd built for her. Because he said: My wife won't live in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy where the ark of the Lord has come.
And at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the house of the Lord and his own house, the towns Hiram had given back to Solomon, Solomon built them and made the people of Israel live there. And Solomon went to Hamath Zobah and won against it. And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store towns he built in Hamath. He built Upper Beth Horon too and Lower Beth Horon, fortified towns with walls, gates and bars, and Baalath and all the store towns Solomon had, and all the chariot towns and the towns of the horsemen, and everything Solomon wanted to build in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and through all the land of his rule. As for all the people left of the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, who weren't of Israel — of their children who were left after them in the land, who the people of Israel hadn't finished off, Solomon made them pay tribute right to this day. But Solomon didn't make servants of the people of Israel for his work. But they were men of war and chief of his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen. And these were the chief of King Solomon's officers, two hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people. And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the City of David to the house he'd built for her. Because he said: My wife won't live in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy where the ark of the Lord has come.
And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house, That the cities which Huram had restored to Solomon, Solomon built them, and caused the children of Israel to dwell there. And Solomon went to Hamathzobah, and prevailed against it. And he built Tadmor in the wilderness, and all the store cities, which he built in Hamath. Also he built Bethhoron the upper, and Bethhoron the nether, fenced cities, with walls, gates, and bars; And Baalath, and all the store cities that Solomon had, and all the chariot cities, and the cities of the horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and throughout all the land of his dominion. 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, 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. 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. And these were the chief of king Solomon’s officers, even two hundred and fifty, that bare rule over the people. 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.

Worship and trade
Then Solomon offered burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of the Lord that he'd built in front of the porch, Even as every day needed, offering according to the order of Moses — on the sabbaths and on the new moons and on the set feasts, three times a year, at the Feast of Unleavened Bread and at the Feast of Weeks and at the Feast of Booths. He set up, according to the order of David his father, the divisions of the priests for their service, and the Levites for their duties, to praise and to serve in front of the priests, as every day needed, and the gatekeepers by their divisions at every gate. Because that's what David the man of God had ordered. They didn't turn from the order of the king to the priests and Levites about any matter, or about the treasures. Now all the work of Solomon was set up from the day the foundation of the temple of the Lord was laid till it was finished. So the temple of the Lord was made whole. Then Solomon went to Eziongaber and to Eloth, at the seaside in the land of Edom. Huram sent him ships by the hand of his servants, and servants who knew the sea. And they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir and took four hundred and fifty talents of gold from there, and brought them to King Solomon.
