2 Chronicles 8:15-18

Living Bible

¹⁵ Solomon did not deviate in any way from David’s instructions concerning these matters and concerning the treasury personnel. ¹⁶ Thus Solomon successfully completed the construction of the Temple.

^17-18 Then he went to the seaport towns of Ezion-geber and Eloth, in Edom, to launch a fleet presented to him by King Hiram. These ships, with King Hiram’s experienced crews working alongside Solomon’s men, went to Ophir and brought back to him several million dollars worth of gold on each trip!
