1 Kings 10:22-25

22The king had a fleet of trading ships at sea along with the ships of Hiram. Once every three years it returned, carrying gold, silver and ivory, and apes and baboons.

23King Solomon was greater in riches and wisdom than all the other kings of the earth.

24The whole world sought audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom God had put in his heart.

25Year after year, everyone who came brought a gift—articles of silver and gold, robes, weapons and spices, and horses and mules.
