Verse 27 is found in chapter 9 of 1 Kings. Solomon organizes forced labor, fortifications, and commercial activities, including a maritime alliance with Hiram. Economic and architectural expansion reaches a massive scale. At the same time, the description of subjected workers anticipates one of the social causes that will later contribute to the division of the kingdom. Solomon’s material greatness therefore contains a tension between state prosperity and the burden imposed on the population.

Und Hiram sandte seine Knechte im Schiff, die gute Schiffsleute und auf dem Meer erfahren waren, mit den Knechten Salomos;
Y envió Hiram en ellos a sus siervos, marineros y diestros en la mar, con los siervos de Salomón:
Hiram envió en la flota a sus servidores, marineros que conocían el mar, junto con los servidores de Salomón.
Et Hiram envoya sur ces navires, auprès des serviteurs de Salomon, ses propres serviteurs, des matelots connaissant la mer.
Ed Hiram mandò in quel navilio, co’ servitori di Salomone, i suoi servitori marinari, intendenti dell’arte marinaresca.
E mandou Hirão com aquelas naus a seus servos, marinheiros, que sabiam do mar, com os servos de Salomão.
