4 also and the meats of his board (and also the food on his table), and the dwelling places of his servants, and the offices of his ministers, and the clothes of them, and the butlers, and their clothes, and the sacrifices which he offered in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit (left) in her for wondering, for these things passed her understanding.

2 Chronicles 9:4 In-Context

2 And Solomon expounded to her (on) all things which she had put forth to him, and nothing was, that he made not open, or known, to her.
3 And after that she saw these things, that is, the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had builded,
4 also and the meats of his board (and also the food on his table), and the dwelling places of his servants, and the offices of his ministers, and the clothes of them, and the butlers, and their clothes, and the sacrifices which he offered in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit (left) in her for wondering, for these things passed her understanding.
5 And she said to the king, The word is true, which I heard in my land, of thy virtues (of thy works, or thy deeds), and [of thy] wisdom;
6 I believed not to [the] tellers, till I myself had come, and mine eyes had seen, and I had proved that scarcely the half of thy wisdom was told to me; thou hast overcome, or (sur)passed, the fame by thy virtues (thou hast even surpassed the reports that I heard).
