1 Kings 5:13-18 - Solomon's Work Force

¹³ Then King Solomon conscripted a forced labor from all Israel, and the forced labor [numbered] thirty thousand men. ¹⁴ He sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand {every month}; the work groups were a month in Lebanon and two months at home; now Adoniram was over the forced labor. ¹⁵ Solomon had seventy thousand {common laborers} and eighty thousand stone craftsmen in the hill country. ¹⁶ Besides the chiefs of the officers Solomon had, there were three thousand three hundred having charge over the people who were doing the work. ¹⁷ When the king commanded, they quarried great stones [and] precious stones to lay [the] foundation of the house [with] hewn stones. ¹⁸ So Solomon's builders and Hiram's builders and the Gebalites hewed [stones], and they prepared the timber and the stone to build the house.

¹⁷ Then Solomon counted all the resident alien men who [were] in the land of Israel after the census that David his father had taken of them. And there were found one hundred and fifty-three thousand. ¹⁸ And he appointed from them seventy thousand {to bear burdens}, eighty thousand {to quarry} in the hill country, and three thousand six hundred overseers to make the people work.
