1 Kings 10:27-29
New King James Version
27 (A)The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedar trees as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland.
28 (B)Also Solomon had horses imported from Egypt and Keveh; the king’s merchants bought them in Keveh at the current price. 29 Now a chariot that was imported from Egypt cost six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse one hundred and fifty; (C)and [a]thus, through their agents, they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.
