After the Temple, Solomon build him own palace. The work take many more years. Workers drag big big stones go up the hill. Dem raise tall halls wey cedar pillars hold up. One big throne room where he go sit judge. Fine fine rooms for living. Wide stone courtyards stretch out everywhere.

But if you turn away and bow to other gods, I go tear Israel commot from you. And this fine Temple go become pile of broken stones.

Solomon cover everything with gold. Cups. Shields. Plates. Silver common so tey nobody even dey count am. Visitors walk...
