1 Kings 10:22-25

22for the king had ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram’s fleet, and once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive bearing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.

23King Solomon surpassed all the kings of the world in riches and in wisdom.

24The whole world wanted an audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom that God had put in his heart.

25Every man would bring his annual tribute: items of silver and gold, clothing, weapons, spices, and horses and mules.
