12. So Hiram went out from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him, but they were not right in his eyes.
13. So he said, “What are these cities that you have given to me, my brother?” So they are called the land of Cabul until this day.
14. Then Hiram sent to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold.
15. This is the account of the forced labor that King Solomon conscripted to build the house of Yahweh and his house, the Millo, the walls of Jerusalem, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.
16. Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, had gone up and captured Gezer and burnt it with fire. He had also killed the Canaanites who were living in the city and had given it as a dowry to his daughter, the wife of Solomon.
17. Solomon rebuilt Gezer and Lower Beth-Horon,
18. as well as Baalath and Tamar in the wilderness in the land;
19. and he also built all of the storage cities which were Solomon’s, the cities for the chariots, the cities for the cavalry, and all of Solomon’s desire that he wanted to build in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land of his dominion.
