26 Solomon accumulated chariots and horsemen. He had 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horsemen, and he stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.
27 Also the king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem, and cedars as plentiful as sycamore trees in the foothills.
28 Solomon’s horses were brought from Egypt and from Keveh. The king’s merchants would buy them from Keveh at a price
29 They imported a chariot from Egypt for 600 shekels of silver, and a horse for 150; and in turn they were exported to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.
