Solomon and Hiram Exchange Gifts

10 Now ait happened at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord and the king’s house  
11 a(Hiram the king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and cypress and gold, as much as he desired), that King Solomon then gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.  
12 Then Hiram went from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him, but they did not please him.
13 So he said, “What kind of cities are these which you have given me, my brother?” aAnd he called them the land of1 Cabul, as they are to this day.  
14 Then Hiram sent the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold.

Solomon’s Additional Achievements

15 And this is the reason for athe labor force which King Solomon raised: to build the house of the Lord, his own house,1 the bMillo, the wall of Jerusalem, cHazor, dMegiddo, and eGezer.  
16 (Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and taken Gezer and burned it with fire, ahad killed the Canaanites who dwelt in the city, and had given it as a dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife.)
