2 Chronicles 9:5-8
New American Standard Bible
5 Then she said to the king, “It was a true [a]story that I heard in my own land about your words and your wisdom. 6 But I did not believe their [b]stories until I came and my own eyes saw it all. And behold, not even half of the greatness of your wisdom was reported to me. You have surpassed the report that I heard. 7 How [c]blessed are your men, how [d]blessed are these servants of yours, who stand before you continually and hear your wisdom! 8 Blessed be the Lord your God who delighted in you, (A)setting you on His throne as king for the Lord your God; (B)because your God loved Israel, establishing them forever, He made you king over them, to carry out justice and righteousness.”
