2 Chronicles 8:15-17
New Living Translation
15 Solomon did not deviate in any way from David’s commands concerning the priests and Levites and the treasuries.
16 So Solomon made sure that all the work related to building the Temple of the Lord was carried out, from the day its foundation was laid to the day of its completion.
17 Later Solomon went to Ezion-geber and Elath,[a] ports along the shore of the Red Sea[b] in the land of Edom.
