1 Kings 5:14 in Context — 1 Kings 5
12 L’Éternel donna de la sagesse à Salomon, comme il le lui avait promis. Et il y eut paix entre Hiram et Salomon, et ils firent alliance ensemble.
13 Le roi Salomon leva sur tout Israël des hommes de corvée; ils étaient au nombre de trente mille.
14 Il les envoya au Liban, dix mille par mois alternativement; ils étaient un mois au Liban, et deux mois chez eux. Adoniram était préposé sur les hommes de corvée.
15 Salomon avait encore soixante-dix mille hommes qui portaient les fardeaux et quatre-vingt mille qui taillaient les pierres dans la montagne,
16 sans compter les chefs, au nombre de trois mille trois cents, préposés par Salomon sur les travaux et chargés de surveiller les ouvriers.
