2 Chronicles 8:10-18 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. And these were the chiefs of the officials of Sovereign Shelomoh: two hundred and fifty, who ruled over the people.

11. And Shelomoh brought the daughter of Pharaoh up from the City of Dawiḏ to the house he had built for her, for he said, “My wife does not dwell in the house of Dawiḏ sovereign of Yisra’ĕl, for the place where the ark of יהוה has come, is set-apart.”

12. Then Shelomoh offered burnt offerings to יהוה on the altar of יהוה which he had built before the porch,

13. even as the duty of every day required, offering according to the command of Mosheh, for the Sabbaths, and for the New Moons, and for the appointed times three times a year: the Festival of Unleavened Bread, and the Festival of Weeks, and the Festival of Booths.

14. And according to the ruling of Dawiḏ his father, he appointed the divisions of the priests for their service, the Lĕwites for their duties, to praise and serve before the priests, as the duty of each day required, and the gatekeepers by their divisions at each gate, for so was the command of Dawiḏ the man of Elohim.

15. And they did not turn aside from the command of the sovereign to the priests and Lĕwites concerning any matter or concerning the treasuries.

16. And all the work of Shelomoh was prepared from the day of the foundation of the House of יהוה until it was completed. And the House of יהוה was perfected.

17. Then Shelomoh went to Etsyon Geḇer and Ěyloth on the seacoast, in the land of Eḏom.

18. And Ḥuram sent him ships by the hand of his servants, and servants who knew the sea. And they went with the servants of Shelomoh to Ophir, and took four hundred and fifty talents of gold from there, and brought it to Sovereign Shelomoh.
