and when she was come to Solomon, she talked with him of all that was in her heart. 010:003 Solomon told her all her questions: there was not anything hidden from the king which he didn't tell her. 010:004 When the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built, 010:005 and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their clothing, and his cup bearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the house of Yahweh; there was no more spirit in her. 010:006 She said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in my own land of your acts, and of your wisdom. 010:007 However I didn't believe the words, until I came, and my eyes had seen it: and behold, the half was not told me; your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard. 010:008 Happy are your men, happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you, [and] who hear your wisdom. 010:009 Blessed be Yahweh your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel: because Yahweh loved Israel forever, therefore made he you king, to do justice and righteousness. 010:010 She gave the king one hundred twenty talents of gold, and of spices very great store, and precious stones: there came no more such abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon. 010:011 The navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of almug trees and precious stones. 010:012 The king made of the almug trees pillars for the house of Yahweh, and for the king's house, harps also and stringed instruments for the singers: there came no such almug trees, nor were seen, to this day. 010:013 King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, besides that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants. 010:014 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold, 010:015 besides [that which] the traders [brought], and the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of the mixed people, and of the governors of the country. 010:016 King Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred [shekels] of gold went to one buckler. 010:017 [he made] three hundred shields of beaten gold; three minas of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon. 010:018 Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the finest gold. 010:019 There were six steps to the throne, and the top of the throne was round behind; and there were stays on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the stays.
