1 Kings 10:27 in Context — 1 Kings 10

25 Et chacun apportait son présent, des objets d’argent et des objets d’or, des vêtements, des armes, des aromates, des chevaux et des mulets; et il en était ainsi chaque année.

26 Salomon rassembla des chars et de la cavalerie; il avait quatorze cents chars et douze mille cavaliers, qu’il plaça dans les villes où il tenait ses chars et à Jérusalem près du roi.

27 Le roi rendit l’argent aussi commun à Jérusalem que les pierres, et les cèdres aussi nombreux que les sycomores qui croissent dans la plaine.

28 C’était de l’Égypte que Salomon tirait ses chevaux; une caravane de marchands du roi les allait chercher par troupes à un prix fixe:

29 un char montait et sortait d’Égypte pour six cents sicles d’argent, et un cheval pour cent cinquante sicles. Ils en amenaient de même avec eux pour tous les rois des Héthiens et pour les rois de Syrie.
