2 Chronicles 8:3-6

8:3 Solomon went to Hamath Zobah and seized it. 8:4 He built up Tadmor in the wilderness and all the storage cities he had built in Hamath. 8:5 He made upper Beth Horon and lower Beth Horon fortified cities with walls and barred gates, ¹  8:6 and built up Baalath, all the storage cities that belonged to him, ²  and all the cities where chariots and horses were kept. ³  He built whatever he wanted in Jerusalem, ⁴  Lebanon, and throughout his entire kingdom. ⁵ 

¹ tn Heb “and he built…[as] cities of fortification, [with] walls, doors, and a bar.”

¹ tn Heb “Solomon.” The recurrence of the proper name is unexpected in terms of contemporary English style, so the pronoun has been used in the translation instead.

² tn Heb “the cities of the chariots and the cities of the horses.”
