Solomon Completes His Construction^(A)

¹⁰ It took Solomon 20 years to build the two houses (Yahweh’s house and the royal palace). ¹¹ When King Solomon had finished, he gave King Hiram of Tyre 20 cities in Galilee. (Hiram had supplied Solomon with as much cedar and cypress lumber and gold as he wanted.) ¹² Hiram left Tyre to see the cities Solomon gave him. However, they didn’t please him.
