1 Kings 10:26-28

New International Version

²⁶ Solomon accumulated chariots and horses;^(A) he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horses,^[a] which he kept in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem. ²⁷ The king made silver as common^(B) in Jerusalem as stones,^(C) and cedar as plentiful as sycamore-fig^(D) trees in the foothills. ²⁸ Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from Kue^[b]—the royal merchants purchased them from Kue at the current price.
