1 Kings 10:16-20

161King Solomon made 200 large shields of beaten gold, 2using 600 shekels of gold on each large shield.

17He made 3300 shields of beaten gold, 4using three minas of gold on each shield, and 5the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

18Moreover, the king made a great throne of 6ivory and overlaid it with refined gold.

19There were six steps to the throne and a round top to the throne at its rear, and 7arms 8on each side of the seat, and two lions standing beside the 9arms.

20Twelve lions were standing there on the six steps on the one side and on the other; nothing like it was made for any other kingdom.
