2 Chronicles 1:12-17 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

12. wisdom and knowledge are given to you. And riches and wealth and esteem I also give you, such as none of the sovereigns have had who have been before you, nor any after you have.”

13. And Shelomoh went to Yerushalayim from the high place that was at Giḇ‛on, from before the Tent of Meeting, and reigned over Yisra’ĕl.

14. And Shelomoh gathered chariots and horsemen, and he had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he stationed in the chariot cities and with the sovereign in Yerushalayim.

15. And the sovereign made silver and gold to be as stones in Yerushalayim, and he made cedars to be as plenty as the sycamores which are in the low country.

16. And Shelomoh had horses imported from Mitsrayim and from Quĕ – the sovereign’s merchants bought them in Quĕ at a price.

17. And they came up and brought from Mitsrayim a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty. And so, for all the sovereigns of the Ḥittites and the sovereigns of Aram, they brought them out by their hand.
