2 Chronicles 9 1 And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon , she came to prove Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem , with a very great company , and camels that bare spices , and gold in abundance , and precious stones : and when she was come to Solomon , she communed with him of all that was in her heart . Copy 2 And Solomon told her all her questions : and there was nothing hid from Solomon which he told her not. Copy 3 And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon , and the house that he had built , Copy 4 And the meat of his table , and the sitting of his servants , and the attendance of his ministers , and their apparel ; his cupbearers also, and their apparel ; and his ascent by which he went up into the house of the Lord ; there was no more spirit in her. Copy 5 And she said to the king , It was a true report which I heard in mine own land of thine acts , and of thy wisdom : Copy 6 Howbeit I believed not their words , until I came , and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the one half of the greatness of thy wisdom was not told me: for thou exceedest the fame that I heard . Copy 7 Happy are thy men , and happy are these thy servants , which stand continually before thee, and hear thy wisdom . Copy 8 Blessed be the Lord thy God , which delighted in thee to set thee on his throne , to be king for the Lord thy God : because thy God loved Israel , to establish them for ever , therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and justice . Copy 9 And she gave the king an hundred and twenty talents of gold , and of spices great abundance , and precious stones : neither was there any such spice as the queen of Sheba gave king Solomon . Copy 10 And the servants also of Huram , and the servants of Solomon , which brought gold from Ophir , brought algum trees and precious stones . Copy 11 And the king made of the algum trees terraces to the house of the Lord , and to the king’s palace , and harps and psalteries for singers : and there were none such seen before in the land of Judah . Copy 12 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire , whatsoever she asked , beside that which she had brought unto the king . So she turned , and went away to her own land , she and her servants . Copy 13 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and threescore and six talents of gold ; Copy 14 Beside that which chapmen and merchants brought . And all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon . Copy 15 And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold : six hundred shekels of beaten gold went to one target . Copy 16 And three hundred shields made he of beaten gold : three hundred shekels of gold went to one shield . And the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon . Copy 17 Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory , and overlaid it with pure gold . Copy 18 And there were six steps to the throne , with a footstool of gold , which were fastened to the throne , and stays on each side of the sitting place , and two lions standing by the stays : Copy 19 And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps . There was not the like made in any kingdom . Copy 20 And all the drinking vessels of king Solomon were of gold , and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold : none were of silver ; it was not any thing accounted of in the days of Solomon . Copy 21 For the king’s ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Huram : every three years once came the ships of Tarshish bringing gold , and silver , ivory , and apes , and peacocks . Copy 22 And king Solomon passed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom . Copy 23 And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon , to hear his wisdom , that God had put in his heart . Copy 24 And they brought every man his present , vessels of silver , and vessels of gold , and raiment , harness , and spices , horses , and mules , a rate year by year . Copy 25 And Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots , and twelve thousand horsemen ; whom he bestowed in the chariot cities , and with the king at Jerusalem . Copy 26 And he reigned over all the kings from the river even unto the land of the Philistines , and to the border of Egypt . Copy 27 And the king made silver in Jerusalem as stones , and cedar trees made he as the sycomore trees that are in the low plains in abundance . Copy 28 And they brought unto Solomon horses out of Egypt , and out of all lands . Copy 29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon , first and last , are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet , and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite , and in the visions of Iddo the seer against Jeroboam the son of Nebat ? Copy 30 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years . Copy 31 And Solomon slept with his fathers , and he was buried in the city of David his father : and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead. Copy
