20And 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: silverH3701 was nothingH369 accountedH2803 of in the daysH3117 of SolomonH8010. 21For the kingH4428 had shipsH591 that wentH1980 to TarshishH8659 with the servantsH5650 of HuramH2361; once every threeH7969 yearsH8141 cameH935 the shipsH591 of TarshishH8659, bringingH935 goldH2091, and silverH3701, ivoryH8143, and apes, and peacocks.

22So kingH4428 SolomonH8010 exceeded all the kingsH4428 of the earthH776 in richesH6239 and wisdomH2451. 23And all the kingsH4428 of the earthH776 soughtH1245 the presenceH6440 of SolomonH8010, to hearH8085 his wisdomH2451, which GodH430 had putH5414 in his heartH3820. 24And they broughtH935 every manH376 his tributeH4503, vesselsH3627 of silverH3701, and vesselsH3627 of goldH2091, and raiment, armorH3627, and spicesH1314, horsesH5483, and mulesH6505, a rate yearH8141 by yearH8141. 25And SolomonH8010 had fourH702 thousandH505 stallsH723 for horsesH5483 and chariotsH7393, and twelve thousandH505 horsemenH6571, that he bestowed in the chariotH4818 citiesH5892, and with the kingH4428 at JerusalemH3389. 26And he ruledH4910 over all the kingsH4428 from the RiverH5104 even unto the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430, and to the borderH1366 of EgyptH4714. 27And the kingH4428 madeH5414 silverH3701 to be in JerusalemH3389 as stonesH68, and cedarsH730 madeH5414 he to be as the sycomore-trees that are in the lowland, for abundanceH7230.
