Solomon’s Additional Achievements
10Now at the end of the twenty years during which Solomon built these two houses, the house of the LORD and the royal palace, 11King Solomon gave twenty towns in the land of Galilee to Hiram king of Tyre, who had supplied him with cedar and cypress logs and gold for his every desire.12So Hiram went out from Tyre to inspect the towns that Solomon had given him, but he was not pleased with them.
