10所罗门用二十年的时间兴建了耶和华的殿和自己的王宫。11泰尔王希兰供应了所罗门所需要的一切香柏木、松木和黄金，所罗门王就把加利利一带的二十座城送给他。12希兰从泰尔去视察这些城，然后满心不悦地对所罗门说：13“兄弟啊，你送给我的是什么城邑呀？”因此，他称这个地区为迦步勒*，沿用至今。14希兰供应了所罗门王约四吨金子。15所罗门征召劳役兴建耶和华的殿、自己的王宫、米罗堡和耶路撒冷的城墙以及夏琐、米吉多和基色。16从前埃及王法老攻陷基色，火烧全城，杀了城内的迦南人，把基色赐予女儿，即所罗门之妻作嫁妆。17所罗门现在重建基色、下伯·和仑、18巴拉和境内沙漠地区的达莫。19他还建造了所有的储货城、屯车城、养马城和计划在耶路撒冷、黎巴嫩及全国兴建的城邑。20当时国中有亚摩利人、赫人、比利洗人、希未人和耶布斯人的后裔，21以色列人没能灭绝这些外族人，所罗门让他们服劳役，至今如此。22所罗门王没有让以色列人服劳役，而是让他们做战士、官长、统帅、将领、战车长和骑兵长。23他还任命五百五十名监工负责监管工人。24法老的女儿从大卫城迁到为她建造的宫殿以后，所罗门动工兴建米罗堡。25耶和华的殿落成以后，所罗门每年三次在他为耶和华筑的坛上献燔祭、平安祭并在耶和华面前烧香。26所罗门王在以东境内的红海边、靠近以禄的以旬·迦别制造船只。27希兰派有经验的水手与所罗门的水手一起出海，28从俄斐为所罗门王运回了十四吨黄金。

The Lord Appears to Solomon
1As soon as Solomon had finished building the house of the Lord and the king’s house and all that Solomon desired to build,2the Lord appeared to Solomon a second time, as he had appeared to him at Gibeon.3And the Lord said to him, “I have heard your prayer and your plea, which you have made before me. I have consecrated this house that you have built, by putting my name there forever. My eyes and my heart will be there for all time.4And as for you, if you will walk before me, as David your father walked, with integrity of heart and uprightness, doing according to all that I have commanded you, and keeping my statutes and my rules,5then I will establish your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised David your father, saying, ‘You shall not lack a man on the throne of Israel.’6But if you turn aside from following me, you or your children, and do not keep my commandments and my statutes that I have set before you, but go and serve other gods and worship them,7then I will cut off Israel from the land that I have given them, and the house that I have consecrated for my name I will cast out of my sight, and Israel will become a proverb and a byword among all peoples.8And this house will become a heap of ruins.* Everyone passing by it will be astonished and will hiss, and they will say, ‘Why has the Lord done thus to this land and to this house?’9Then they will say, ‘Because they abandoned the Lord their God who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt and laid hold on other gods and worshiped them and served them. Therefore the Lord has brought all this disaster on them.’”
Solomon’s Other Acts
10At the end of twenty years, in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the Lord and the king’s house,11and Hiram king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and cypress timber and gold, as much as he desired, King Solomon gave to Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.12But when Hiram came from Tyre to see the cities that Solomon had given him, they did not please him.13Therefore he said, “What kind of cities are these that you have given me, my brother?” So they are called the land of Cabul to this day.14Hiram had sent to the king 120 talents* of gold.15And this is the account of the forced labor that King Solomon drafted to build the house of the Lord and his own house and the Millo and the wall of Jerusalem and Hazor and Megiddo and Gezer16(Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and captured Gezer and burned it with fire, and had killed the Canaanites who lived in the city, and had given it as dowry to his daughter, Solomon’s wife;17so Solomon rebuilt Gezer) and Lower Beth-horon18and Baalath and Tamar in the wilderness, in the land of Judah,*19and all the store cities that Solomon had, and the cities for his chariots, and the cities for his horsemen, and whatever Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.20All the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, who were not of the people of Israel—21their descendants who were left after them in the land, whom the people of Israel were unable to devote to destruction*—these Solomon drafted to be slaves, and so they are to this day.22But of the people of Israel Solomon made no slaves. They were the soldiers, they were his officials, his commanders, his captains, his chariot commanders and his horsemen.23These were the chief officers who were over Solomon’s work: 550 who had charge of the people who carried on the work.24But Pharaoh’s daughter went up from the city of David to her own house that Solomon had built for her. Then he built the Millo.25Three times a year Solomon used to offer up burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar that he built to the Lord, making offerings with it* before the Lord. So he finished the house.26King Solomon built a fleet of ships at Ezion-geber, which is near Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.27And Hiram sent with the fleet his servants, seamen who were familiar with the sea, together with the servants of Solomon.28And they went to Ophir and brought from there gold, 420 talents, and they brought it to King Solomon.
