1599 Geneva Bible
16 ¶ Now Solomon had made provision for all the [a]work from the day of the foundation of the house of the Lord, until it was finished: so the house of the Lord was perfect.
17 Then went Solomon to Ezion Geber, and to Eloth by the [b]Sea side in the land of Edom.
18 And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants, ships and servants that had knowledge of the sea: and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and brought thence [c]four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
