2 Chronicles 9:1-12

And when the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
heard
<08085> (8804)
of the fame
<08088>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
she came
<0935> (8799)
to prove
<05254> (8763)
Solomon
<08010>
with hard questions
<02420>
at Jerusalem
<03389>_,
with a very
<03966>
great
<03515>
company
<02428>_,
and camels
<01581>
that bare
<05375> (8802)
spices
<01314>_,
and gold
<02091>
in abundance
<07230>_,
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>_:
and there was nothing hid
<05956> (8738)
from Solomon
<08010>
which he told
<05046> (8689)
her not.
And when the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
the wisdom
<02451>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
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>_;
his cupbearers
<08248> (8688)
also, and their apparel
<04403>_;
and his ascent
<05944>
by which he went up
<05927> (8799)
into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
there was no more spirit
<07307>
in her. {cupbearers: or, butlers}
And she said
<0559> (8799)
to the king
<04428>_,
[It was] a true
<0571>
report
<01697>
which I heard
<08085> (8804)
in mine own land
<0776>
of thine acts
<01697>_,
and of thy wisdom
<02451>_:
{report: Heb. word} {acts: or, sayings}
Howbeit I believed
<0539> (8689)
not their words
<01697>_,
until I came
<0935> (8804)_,
and mine eyes
<05869>
had seen
<07200> (8799)
[it]: and, behold, the one half
<02677>
of the greatness
<04768>
of thy wisdom
<02451>
was not told
<05046> (8717)
me: [for] thou exceedest
<03254> (8804)
the fame
<08052>
that I heard
<08085> (8804)_.
Happy
<0835>
[are] thy men
<0582>_,
and happy
<0835>
[are] these thy servants
<05650>_,
which stand
<05975> (8802)
continually
<08548>
before
<06440>
thee, and 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 his throne
<03678>_,
[to be] king
<04428>
for the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
because thy God
<0430>
loved
<0160>
Israel
<03478>_,
to establish
<05975> (8687)
them for ever
<05769>_,
therefore made
<05414> (8799)
he thee king
<04428>
over them, 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>
great
<03966>
abundance
<07230>_,
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_:
neither was there any such spice
<01314>
as the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
gave
<05414> (8804)
king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_.
And the servants
<05650>
also of Huram
<02361>_,
and the servants
<05650>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
which brought
<0935> (8689)
gold
<02091>
from Ophir
<0211>_,
brought
<0935> (8689)
algum
<0418>
trees
<06086>
and precious
<03368>
stones
<068>_.
{algum...: also called, almug trees}
And the king
<04428>
made
<06213> (8799)
[of] the algum
<0418>
trees
<06086>
terraces
<04546>
to the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and to the king's
<04428>
palace
<01004>_,
and harps
<03658>
and psalteries
<05035>
for singers
<07891> (8802)_:
and there were none such
<01992>
seen
<07200> (8738)
before
<06440>
in the land
<0776>
of Judah
<03063>_.
{terraces: or, stairs: Heb. highways}
And king
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>
gave
<05414> (8804)
to the queen
<04436>
of Sheba
<07614>
all her desire
<02656>_,
whatsoever she asked
<07592> (8804)_,
beside [that] which she had brought
<0935> (8689)
unto the king
<04428>_.
So she turned
<02015> (8799)_,
and went away
<03212> (8799)
to her own land
<0776>_,
she and her servants
<05650>_.
