2 Chronicles 8:10-12
New English Translation

10 These men worked for King Solomon as supervisors; there were a total of 250 of them who were in charge of the people.[a]

11 Solomon moved Pharaoh’s daughter up from the City of David[b] to the palace he had built for her, for he said, “My wife must not live in the palace of King David of Israel, for the places where the ark of the Lord has entered are holy.”

12 Then Solomon offered burnt sacrifices to the Lord on the altar of the Lord which he had built in front of the temple’s porch.[c]
