Solomon & The Temple

And king Solomon becometh greater than any of the kings of the earth for riches and wisdom;

and all the kings of the earth are seeking the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom that God hath put in his heart,

and they are bringing in each his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, harness, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.

And there are to Solomon four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placed them in cities of the chariot, and with the king in Jerusalem.

And he is ruling over all the kings from the River even unto the land of the Philistines, and unto the border of Egypt.

And the king maketh the silver in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he hath made as sycamores, that are in the low country, for abundance,

and they are bringing out horses from Egypt to Solomon, and from all the lands.

And the rest of the matters of Solomon, the first and the last, are they not written beside the matters of Nathan the prophet, and beside the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and with the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?

And Solomon reigneth in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years,

and Solomon lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David his father, and reign doth Rehoboam his son in his stead.
