1 Kings 10:16-20

161King Solomon made two hundred large shields of beaten gold, 2using six hundred shekels of gold on each large shield.

17And he made 3three hundred small shields of beaten gold, 4using 5three minas of gold on each shield; and 6the king put them in the house of the timber of Lebanon.

18Moreover, the king made a large throne of 7ivory and overlaid it with fine gold.

19There were six steps to the throne and a round top to the throne at its back, and 8armrests 9on each side of the seat, and two lions standing beside the 10armrests.

20Twelve lions were standing there on the six steps on the one side and on the other; nothing like it was made for 11any other kingdom.
