15 And the king gave gold and silver at Jerusalem as [a]stone, and gave cedar trees as the wild fig trees, that are abundantly in the plain.

17 They came up also and brought out of Egypt some chariot, worth six hundred shekels of silver, that is an horse for an hundred and fifty: and thus they brought horses to all the kings of the Hittites, and to the kings of Aram by their [c]means.
