6. as well as Baalath and all his store cities, and cities for his chariots and cities for his horsemen—every thing that Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem and in Lebanon and in all the land that he ruled.
7. All the people that were left of the Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, who were not of Israel,
