1 Kings 10:6-10

English Standard Version

⁶ And she said to the king, “The report was true that I heard in my own land of your words and of your wisdom, ⁷ but I did not believe the reports until I came and my own eyes had seen it. And behold, the half was not told me. Your wisdom and prosperity surpass the report that I heard. ^8 (A)Happy are your men! Happy are your servants, who continually stand before you and hear your wisdom! ^9 (B)Blessed be the Lord your God, who has delighted in you and set you on the throne of Israel! ^(C)Because the Lord loved Israel forever, he has made you king, ^(D)that you may execute justice and righteousness.” ^10 (E)Then she gave the king 120 talents^[a] of gold, and a very great quantity of spices and precious stones. Never again came such an abundance of spices as these that the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
