1 Kings 9:24-26
Common English Bible
24 When Pharaoh’s daughter went up from David’s City to the palace he had built for her, Solomon built the stepped structure. 25 Three times a year Solomon would offer entirely burned offerings and well-being sacrifices on the altar that he had built for the Lord. Along with this he would burn incense to the Lord. In this way, he completed the temple.[a] 26 King Solomon built a fleet near Eloth in Ezion-geber, on the coast of the Reed Sea[b] in the land of Edom.
