2 Chronicles 1:15-17

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁵ And the king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stone, and he made cedar as plentiful as the sycamore of the Shephe′lah. ¹⁶ And Solomon’s import of horses was from Egypt and Ku′e, and the king’s traders received them from Ku′e for a price. ¹⁷ They imported a chariot from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; likewise through them these were exported to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.
