12
And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what she had taken to the king. So she went back to her country with her servants.
13
Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
14
And in addition to what he got from traders of different sorts, all the kings of Arabia and the rulers of the country gave gold and silver to Solomon.
15
And King Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
16
And he made three hundred smaller body-covers of hammered gold, using three hundred shekels of gold for every cover, and the king put them in the house of the Woods of Lebanon.
17
Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
18
There were six steps up to it, and a foot-rest of gold fixed to it, and arms on the two sides of the seat, with two lions at the side of the arms.
19
And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.
20
All King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold: no one gave a thought to silver in the days of Solomon.
21
For the king had Tarshish-ships sailing with the servants of Huram: once every three years the Tarshish-ships came back with gold and silver, ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
22
And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
