2 Chronicles 8:6-11 Amplified Bible (AMP)

6. And Baalath and all the store cities [he] had, and all the cities for his chariots and the cities for his horsemen, and all that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all his dominion.

7. All the people who were left of the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, who were not of Israel,

8. But descendants of those who were left in the land, whom the Israelites had not destroyed–of them Solomon made a levy for forced labor to this day.

9. But of the Israelites Solomon made no slaves for his work; but they were men of war, chiefs of his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen.

10. These were the chiefs of King Solomon's officers, 250 in authority over the people.

11. Solomon brought the daughter of Pharaoh out of the City of David into the house 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 to which the ark of the Lord has come.
