1 Kings 10:18-23
18Moreover the kingH4428 madeH6213 a greatH1419 throneH3678 of ivoryH8127, and overlaidH6823 it with the finest goldH2091. 19There were sixH8337 stepsH4609 to the throneH3678, and the topH7218 of the throneH3678 was roundH5696 behind; and there were stays on either side by the placeH4725 of the seatH3678, and twoH8147 lionsH738 standingH5975 beside the stays. 20And twelve lionsH738 stoodH5975 there on the oneH2088 side and on the other upon the sixH8337 stepsH4609: there was not the like madeH6213 in any kingdomH4467. 21And all kingH4428 Solomon’s drinking vesselsH3627 were of goldH2091, and all the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the forestH3293 of LebanonH3844 were of pureH5462 goldH2091: none were of silverH3701; it was nothing accountedH2803 of in the daysH3117 of SolomonH8010. 22For the kingH4428 had at seaH3220 a navy of TarshishH8659 with the navy of HiramH2438: once every threeH7969 yearsH8141 cameH935 the navy of TarshishH8659, bringingH935 goldH2091, and silverH3701, ivoryH8143, and apes, and peacocks.
23So kingH4428 SolomonH8010 exceeded all the kingsH4428 of the earthH776 in richesH6239 and in wisdomH2451.
