Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help And rely on horses, And trust in chariots because they are many And in horsemen because they are very strong, But they do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek the Lord!

“ You are altogether beautiful, my darling, And there is no blemish on you.

“ How beautiful you are, my darling, How beautiful you are! Your eyes are like doves.”

Solomon amassed chariots and horsemen. He had 1,400 chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, and he stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.The king made silver and gold as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedars as plentiful as sycamores in the lowland.Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from Kue; the king’s traders acquired them from Kue for a price.They imported chariots from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver apiece, horses for 150 apiece, and by the same means they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.

“ You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling, As lovely as Jerusalem, As awesome as an army with banners.
