So the house of the LORD was completed. 17 Then Solomon went to Eziongeber and to Eloth at the seaside in the land of Edom. 18 And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that knew the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and took from there four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to King Solomon.
