Expanded Bible

¹⁵ In Jerusalem Solomon made silver and gold as ·plentiful [common] as stones and cedar trees as ·plentiful [common] as the ·fig [sycamore-fig] trees on the ·western hills [^LShephelah]. ¹⁶ He imported horses from Egypt and ·Kue [Cilicia; ^Cpresent-day southern Turkey]; his traders bought them in ·Kue [Cilicia] for the ·prevailing [usual; standard] price. ¹⁷ They imported chariots from Egypt for ·about fifteen pounds [^Lsix hundred shekels] of silver apiece, and horses cost ·nearly four pounds of silver [^Lone hundred fifty] apiece. Then they ·sold [exported] the horses and chariots to all the kings of the Hittites and the Arameans.
