1 Kings 10:2-10

2And she cameH935 to JerusalemH3389 with a veryH3966 greatH3515 trainH2428, with camelsH1581 that boreH5375 spicesH1314, and veryH3966 muchH7227 goldH2091, and preciousH3368 stonesH68: and when she had comeH935 to SolomonH8010, she talkedH1696 with him of all that was in her heartH3824.

3And SolomonH8010 answeredH5046 all her questionsH1697: there was not any thingH1697 hidH5956 from the kingH4428, which he toldH5046 her not.1

4And when the queenH4436 of ShebaH7614 had seenH7200 all Solomon’sH8010 wisdomH2451, and the houseH1004 that he had builtH1129,

5And the foodH3978 of his tableH7979, and the sittingH4186 of his servantsH5650, and the attendanceH4612 of his ministersH8334, and their apparelH4403, and his cupbearersH8248, and his ascentH5930 by which he went upH5927 to the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068; there was no more spiritH7307 in her.23

6And she saidH559 to the kingH4428, It was a trueH571 reportH1697 that I heardH8085 in my own landH776 of thy actsH1697 and of thy wisdomH2451.45

7However I believedH539 not the wordsH1697, until I cameH935, and my eyesH5869 had seenH7200 it : and, behold, the halfH2677 was not toldH5046 me: thy wisdomH2451 and prosperityH2896 exceedH3254 the fameH8052 which I heardH8085.6

8HappyH835 are thy menH582, happyH835 are these thy servantsH5650, who standH5975 continuallyH8548 beforeH6440 thee, and that hearH8085 thy wisdomH2451.

9BlessedH1288 be the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, who delightedH2654 in thee, to setH5414 thee on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478: because the LORDH3068 lovedH160 IsraelH3478 for everH5769, therefore he madeH7760 thee kingH4428, to doH6213 judgmentH4941 and justiceH6666.

10And she gaveH5414 the kingH4428 an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 talentsH3603 of goldH2091, and of spicesH1314 a veryH3966 great quantityH7235, and preciousH3368 stonesH68: there cameH935 no more suchH1931 abundanceH7230 of spicesH1314 as these which the queenH4436 of ShebaH7614 gaveH5414 to kingH4428 SolomonH8010.
