1 Kings 9:11-13

Common English Bible

¹¹ King Hiram of Tyre gave Solomon all the cedar, pinewood, and gold that he wanted. Then King Solomon gave Hiram twenty towns in the region of Galilee. ¹² Hiram went from Tyre to inspect the towns Solomon had given him. They didn’t seem adequate in his view. ¹³ So Hiram remarked, “My brother, are these towns you’ve given me good for anything?” The cities are thus called the land of Cabul to this very day.
