1 Kings 10:1-13

And when the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
heard
<08085> (8802)
of the fame
<08088>
of Solomon
<08010>
concerning the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
she came
<0935> (8799)
to prove
<05254> (8763)
him with hard questions
<02420>_.
And she came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
with a very
<03966>
great
<03515>
train
<02428>_,
with camels
<01581>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
spices
<01314>_,
and very
<03966>
much
<07227>
gold
<02091>_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_:
and when she was come
<0935> (8799)
to Solomon
<08010>_,
she communed
<01696> (8762)
with him of all that was in her heart
<03824>_.
And Solomon
<08010>
told
<05046> (8686)
her all her questions
<01697>_:
there was not [any] thing
<01697>
hid
<05956> (8737)
from the king
<04428>_,
which he told
<05046> (8689)
her not. {questions: Heb. words}
And when the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
all Solomon's
<08010>
wisdom
<02451>_,
and the house
<01004>
that he had built
<01129> (8804)_,
And the meat
<03978>
of his table
<07979>_,
and the sitting
<04186>
of his servants
<05650>_,
and the attendance
<04612>
of his ministers
<08334> (8764)_,
and their apparel
<04403>_,
and his cupbearers
<08248> (8688)_,
and his ascent
<05930>
by which he went up
<05927> (8799)
unto the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
there was no more spirit
<07307>
in her. {attendance: Heb. standing} {cupbearers: or, butlers}
And she said
<0559> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_,
It was a true
<0571>
report
<01697>
that I heard
<08085> (8804)
in mine own land
<0776>
of thy acts
<01697>
and of thy wisdom
<02451>_.
{report: Heb. word} {acts: or, sayings}
Howbeit I believed
<0539> (8689)
not the words
<01697>_,
until I came
<0935> (8804)_,
and mine eyes
<05869>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
[it]: and, behold, the half
<02677>
was not told
<05046> (8717)
me: thy wisdom
<02451>
and prosperity
<02896>
exceedeth
<03254> (8689)
the fame
<08052>
which I heard
<08085> (8804)_.
{thy...: Heb. thou hast added wisdom and goodness to}
Happy
<0835>
[are] thy men
<0582>_,
happy
<0835>
[are] these thy servants
<05650>_,
which stand
<05975> (8802)
continually
<08548>
before
<06440>
thee, [and] that hear
<08085> (8802)
thy wisdom
<02451>_.
Blessed
<01288> (8803)
be the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
which delighted
<02654> (8804)
in thee, to set
<05414> (8800)
thee on the throne
<03678>
of Israel
<03478>_:
because the LORD
<03068>
loved
<0160>
Israel
<03478>
for ever
<05769>_,
therefore made
<07760> (8799)
he thee king
<04428>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
judgment
<04941>
and justice
<06666>_.
And she gave
<05414> (8799)
the king
<04428>
an hundred
<03967>
and twenty
<06242>
talents
<03603>
of gold
<02091>_,
and of spices
<01314>
very
<03966>
great store
<07235> (8687)_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_:
there came
<0935> (8804)
no more such
<01931>
abundance
<07230>
of spices
<01314>
as these which the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
gave
<05414> (8804)
to king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_.
And the navy
<0590>
also of Hiram
<02438>_,
that brought
<05375> (8804)
gold
<02091>
from Ophir
<0211>_,
brought in
<0935> (8689)
from Ophir
<0211>
great
<03966>
plenty
<07235> (8687)
of almug
<0484>
trees
<06086>_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_.
{almug...: also called, algum trees}
And the king
<04428>
made
<06213> (8799)
of the almug
<0484>
trees
<06086>
pillars
<04552>
for the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and for the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_,
harps
<03658>
also and psalteries
<05035>
for singers
<07891> (8802)_:
there came
<0935> (8804)
no such almug
<0484>
trees
<06086>_,
nor were seen
<07200> (8738)
unto this day
<03117>_.
{pillars: or, rails: Heb. a prop}
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8804)
unto the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
all her desire
<02656>_,
whatsoever she asked
<07592> (8804)_,
beside [that] which Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8804)
her of his royal
<04428>
bounty
<03027>_.
So she turned
<06437> (8799)
and went
<03212> (8799)
to her own country
<0776>_,
she and her servants
<05650>_.
{of his...: Heb. according to the hand of king Solomon}
