International Standard Version

²² However, Solomon did not force Israelis into conscripted labor, but they did serve as his soldiers, servants, princes, captains, chariot commanders, and cavalry. ²³ There were 550 chief officers who supervised Solomon’s activities and managed the staff that was doing the work.

²⁴ As soon as Pharaoh’s daughter arrived from the City of David to live in her house that Solomon^[a] had built for her, then he fortified the terrace ramparts in the City of David.^[b]
