1 Kings 4:29-34

29God gave Solomon wisdom, very great insight, and understanding as vast as the sand on the seashore.

30Solomon’s wisdom was greater than the wisdom of all the people of the East, greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.

31He was wiser than anyone  — wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, Calcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol. His reputation extended to all the surrounding nations.

32Solomon spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his songs numbered 1,005.

33He spoke about trees, from the cedar in Lebanon to the hyssop growing out of the wall. He also spoke about animals, birds, reptiles, and fish.

34Emissaries of all peoples, sent by every king on earth who had heard of his wisdom, came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom.
