1 Kings 5:16-18

21st Century King James Version

¹⁶ besides the chief of Solomon’s officers who were over the work, three thousand and three hundred, who ruled over the people who wrought in the work.

¹⁷ And the king commanded, and they brought great stones, costly stones and hewn stones, to lay the foundation of the house.

¹⁸ And Solomon’s builders and Hiram’s builders and the stone squarers hewed them. So they prepared timber and stones to build the house.
