11:009:006 But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your
children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes
which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and
worship them:
11:009:007 Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given
them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will
I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a
byword among all people:
11:009:008 And at this house, which is high, every one that passeth by it
shall be astonished, and shall hiss; and they shall say, Why
hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and to this house?
11:009:009 And they shall answer, Because they forsook the LORD their
God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt,
and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them,
and served them: therefore hath the LORD brought upon them all
this evil.
11:009:010 And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon
had built the two houses, the house of the LORD, and the
king's house,
11:009:011 (Now Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar
trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his

the land of Galilee.
11:009:012 And Hiram came out from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon

11:009:013 And he said, What cities are these which thou hast given me,
my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul unto this
day.
11:009:014 And Hiram sent to the king sixscore talents of gold.
11:009:015 And this is the reason of the levy which king Solomon raised;
for to build the house of the LORD, and his own house, and
Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and
Gezer.
11:009:016 For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up, and taken Gezer, and
burnt it with fire, and slain the Canaanites that dwelt in the
city, and given it for a present unto his daughter, Solomon's
wife.
11:009:017 And Solomon built Gezer, and Bethhoron the nether,
11:009:018 And Baalath, and Tadmor in the wilderness, in the land,
11:009:019 And all the cities of store that Solomon had, and cities for
his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which
Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in
all the land of his dominion.
11:009:020 And all the people that were left of the Amorites, Hittites,
