Now Solomon had seventy thousand porters, and eighty thousand stonemasons in the mountains,

And they tie up heavy burdens and lay them on people’s shoulders, but they themselves are unwilling to move them with so much as their finger.

Now it came about in the course of those many days that the king of Egypt died. And the sons of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry for help because of their bondage ascended to God.

“ Your father made our yoke hard; but now, lighten the hard labor imposed by your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.”

The Egyptians used violence to compel the sons of Israel to labor;and they made their lives bitter with hard labor in mortar and bricks and at all kinds of labor in the field, all their labors which they violently had them perform as slaves.

I was angry with My people, I profaned My heritage And handed them over to you. You did not show mercy to them, On the aged you made your yoke very heavy.

For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome.

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.For My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light.”

And he said,“ This will be the practice of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and put them in his chariots for himself and among his horsemen, and they will run before his chariots.He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and some to do his plowing and to gather in his harvest, and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots.He will also take your daughters and use them as perfumers, cooks, and bakers.He will take the best of your fields, your vineyards, and your olive groves, and give them to his servants.And he will take a tenth of your seed and your vineyards and give it to his high officials and his servants.He will also take your male servants and your female servants, and your best young men, and your donkeys, and use them for his work.He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants.Then you will cry out on that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the Lord will not answer you on that day.”

Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand that is on the seashore in abundance; they were eating, drinking, and rejoicing.

But Solomon did not make slaves of the sons of Israel; for they were men of war, his servants, his commanders, his charioteers, his chariot commanders, and his horsemen.

So Judah and Israel lived securely, everyone under his vine and his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.
