1 Kings 10:26-28

The Voice

²⁶ Solomon summoned his chariots and cavalrymen. He commanded 1,400 chariots and 12,000 cavalrymen, and he sent them to the appointed cities (known as chariot cities) or to guard Jerusalem’s king. ²⁷ The king had made silver as common as stones are in Jerusalem, and he made cedars as common as sycamore trees are in the foothills. ²⁸ Solomon brought his horses from Egypt^[a] and Kue, and the king’s businessmen paid the people of Kue for the horses.
