1 Kings 4:31-34

31For 1he was wiser than all men, than 2Ethan the Ezrahite, Heman, 3Calcol and 4Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his 5fame was known in all the surrounding nations.

326He also spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his songs were 1,005.

33He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that grows on the wall; he spoke also of animals and birds and creeping things and fish.

347Men 8came from all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom.
