22. രാജാവിന്നു സമുദ്രത്തില് ഹീരാമിന്റെ കപ്പലുകളോടുകൂടെ തര്ശീശ് കപ്പലുകള് ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നു; തര്ശീശ് കപ്പലുകള് മൂന്നു സംവത്സരത്തില് ഒരിക്കല് പൊന്നു, വെള്ളി, ആനക്കൊമ്പു, കുരങ്ങു, മയില് എന്നിവ കൊണ്ടുവന്നു.
22. For Solomon had a ship of Tarshish in the sea with the ships of Hiram; one ship came to the king every three years out of Tarshish, [laden with] gold and silver, and wrought stones, and hewn stones. This was the arrangement of the provision which King Solomon fetched to build the house of the Lord, and the house of the king, and the wall of Jerusalem, and the citadel; to fortify the City of David, and Assyria, and Migdol, and Gezer, and Beth Horon the upper, and Jethermath, and all the cities of the chariots, and all the cities of the horsemen, and the fortification of Solomon which he purposed to build in Jerusalem and in all the land, so that none of the people should rule over him that was left of the Hittite and the Amorite and the Perizzite and the Canaanite and the Hivite and the Jebusite and the Girgashite, who were not of the children of Israel, their descendants who had been left with him in the land, whom the children of Israel could not utterly destroy. And Solomon made them tributaries until this day. But of the children of Israel Solomon made nothing, for they were the warriors, and his servants and rulers, and captains of the third order, and the captains of his chariots, and his horsemen.
