Solomon’s Wealth
14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen. And he had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem. 15 And the king made silver and gold in Jerusalem like the stones. And he made cedar as abundant as the sycamore fig trees that were in the Shephelah. 16 And Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from Kue. The traders of the king received them from Kue at a price. 17 They went up and exported a chariot from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver and a horse for one hundred and fifty shekels. And these were likewise exported[a] to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.[b]

Solomon’s Horses and Wealth
14 Solomon(A) accumulated 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horsemen,(B) which he stationed in the chariot cities(C) and with the king in Jerusalem. 15 The king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedar as abundant as sycamore in the Judean foothills. 16 Solomon’s horses came from Egypt and Kue.[a] The king’s traders would get them from Kue at the going price. 17 A chariot could be imported from Egypt for 15 pounds[b] of silver and a horse for about four pounds.[c] In the same way, they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Aram through their agents.
