And he built Palmira in the desert: and he built other strong cities in Emath.
Therefore he set over them masters of the works, to afflict them with burdens. And they built for Pharao cities of tabernacles, Phithom and Ramesses.
And Thou the king of Emath heard that David had defeated all the forces of Adarezer.
He went also into Emath Suba, and possessed it.
And he built Beth-horon the upper, and Beth-horon the nether, walled cities with gates and bars and locks;
And Josaphat grew, and became exceeding great: and he built in Juda houses like towers, and walled cities.
