29
God gave Solomon very great wisdom, discernment, and breadth of understanding as vast as the sand on the seashore,
30
so that Solomon's wisdom surpassed the wisdom of all the people of the east, and all the wisdom of Egypt.
31
He was wiser than anyone else, wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, Calcol, and Darda, children of Mahol; his fame spread throughout all the surrounding nations.
32
He composed three thousand proverbs, and his songs numbered a thousand and five.
