1 Kings 10:23-29

231So King Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and wisdom. 24And all the earth was seeking the 2attention of Solomon, 3to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart. 25And 4they were bringing, everyone, 5a gift: articles of silver and gold, garments, weapons, balsam oil, horses, and mules, so much year by year.

266Now Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had 1,400 chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, and he 7stationed them in the 8chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem. 279And the king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem, and he made cedars as plentiful as sycamore trees that are in the 10lowland. 2811Also Solomon’s import of horses was from Egypt and Kue, and the king’s merchants acquired them from Kue for a price. 29A chariot 12was imported from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for 150; and 13by the same means they exported them 14to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of the Arameans.
