Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. He stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.
Their land is full of silver and gold, and there is no limit to their treasures; their land is full of horses, and there is no limit to their chariots.Their land is full of worthless idols; they worship the work of their hands, what their fingers have made.
Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help and who depend on horses! They trust in the abundance of chariots and in the large number of horsemen. They do not look to the Holy One of Israel, and they do not seek the LORD.
