King Shlomo gave to the queen of Sheva all her desire, whatever she asked, besides that which Shlomo gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants.
14
Now the weight of gold that came to Shlomo in one year was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
15
besides [that which] the traders [brought], and the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of the mixed people, and of the governors of the country.
16
King Shlomo made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred [shekels] of gold went to one buckler.
17
[he made] three hundred shields of beaten gold; three minas of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Levanon.
18
Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the finest gold.
19
There were six steps to the throne, and the top of the throne was round behind; and there were stays on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the stays.
20
Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps: there was nothing like it made in any kingdom.
21
All king Shlomo's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Levanon were of pure gold: none were of silver; it was nothing accounted of in the days of Shlomo.
22
For the king had at sea a navy of Tarshish with the navy of Hiram: once every three years came the navy of Tarshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
23
So king Shlomo exceeded all the kings of the eretz in riches and in wisdom.
