The queen of Sheba admireth the wisdom of Solomon.1 ¶ And when the queenº of Shebaº heardºª of² the fameº of Solomonº concerning the nameº of the LORD,º she cameºª to proveºª him with hard questions.º 2 And she cameºª to Jerusalemº with a veryº greatº train,º with camelsº that bareºª spices,º and veryº muchº gold,º and preciousº stones:º and when she was comeºª to² Solomon,º she communedºª with² him of² all² that² was² in² her heart.º 3 And Solomonº toldºª her² all² her questions:º there was² not² [any] thingº hidºª from² the king,º which² he toldºª her not.² 4 And when the queenº of Shebaº had seenºª² all² Solomon'sº wisdom,º and the houseº that² he had built,ºª 5 And the meatº of his table,º and the sittingº of his servants,º and the attendanceº of his ministers,ºª and their apparel,º and his cupbearers,¹ª² and his ascentº by which² he went upºª unto the houseº of the LORD;º there was² no² more² spiritº in her. 6 And she saidºª to² the king,º It was² a trueº reportº that² I heardºª in mine own landº of² thy actsº and of² thy wisdom.º 7 Howbeit I believedºª not² the words,º until²² I came,ºª and mine eyesº had seenºª [it]: and, behold,² the halfº was not² toldºª me: thy wisdomº and prosperityº exceedethºª² the fameº which² I heard.ºª 8 Happyº [are] thy men,¹² happyº [are] these² thy servants,º which standºª continuallyº beforeº thee, [and] that hearºª² thy wisdom.º 9 Blessedºª be² the LORDº thy God,º which² delightedºª in thee, to setºª thee on² the throneº of Israel:º because the LORDº loved¹²² Israelº for ever,º therefore madeºª he thee king,º to doºª judgmentº and justice.º 10 And she gaveºª the kingº an hundredº and twentyº talentsº of gold,º and of spicesº veryº great store,ºª and preciousº stones:º there cameºª no² more² suchº abundanceº of spicesº as these which² the queenº of Shebaº gaveºª to kingº Solomon.º 11 And the navyº also² of Hiram,º that² broughtºª goldº from Ophir,º² brought inºª from Ophirº² greatº plentyºª of almugº trees,º and preciousº stones.º 12 And the kingº madeºª of² the almugº treesº pillarsº for the houseº of the LORD,º and for the king'sº house,º harpsº also and psalteriesº for singers:ºª there cameºª no² such² almugº trees,º nor² were seenºª unto² this² day.º 13 And kingº Solomonº gaveºª unto the queenº of Shebaº² all² her desire,º whatsoever² she asked,ºª beside²² [that] which² Solomonº gaveºª her of his royal¹ bounty.º² So she turnedºª and went¹ª² to her own country,º she² and her servants.º [1] Gn 10:7, 28; 25:3; Jg 14:12; 1K 4:31, 34; 2Ch 9:1; Jb 6:19; 28:28; Ps 49:4; 72:10, 15; Pv 1:5; 2:3; Is 60:6; Jr 6:20; Ezk 27:22; 38:13; Mt 12:42; 13:11, 35; Mk 4:34; Lk 11:31; Jn 17:3; 1Co 1:20.
