10 Au bout de vingt ans, Salomon avait bâti les deux maisons, la maison de l’Éternel et la maison du roi.

11 Alors, comme Hiram, roi de Tyr, avait fourni à Salomon des bois de cèdre et des bois de cyprès, et de l’or, autant qu’il en voulut, le roi Salomon donna à Hiram vingt villes dans le pays de Galilée.

12 Hiram sortit de Tyr, pour voir les villes que lui donnait Salomon. Mais elles ne lui plurent point,

13 et il dit: Quelles villes m’as-tu données là, mon frère? Et il les appela pays de Cabul, nom qu’elles ont conservé jusqu’à ce jour.

14 Hiram avait envoyé au roi cent vingt talents d’or.
