that I heard
<08085> (8804)

in mine own land

{report: Heb. word} {acts: or, sayings}

had seen
<07200> (8799)

[it]: and, behold, the half
<02677>

was not told
<05046> (8717)

me: thy wisdom
<02451>

and prosperity
<02896>

exceedeth
<03254> (8689)

the fame
<08052>

<08085> (8804)_.

{thy...: Heb. thou hast added wisdom and goodness to}

Happy
<0835>

[are] thy men

happy
<0835>

[are] these thy servants
<05650>_,

<05975> (8802)

continually
<08548>

before
<06440>

thee, [and] that hear

Blessed

in thee, to set
<05414> (8800)

thee on the throne
<03678>

of Israel
<03478>_:

because the LORD
<03068>

loved
<0160>

Israel
<03478>

for ever
<05769>_,

therefore made
<07760> (8799)

he thee king

<05414> (8799)

the king
<04428>

of gold
<02091>_,

and of spices
<01314>

very
<03966>

great store
<07235> (8687)_,

and precious
<03368>

stones
<068>_:

there came
<0935> (8804)

no more such
<01931>

abundance
<07230>

of spices
<01314>

as these which the queen
<04436>

of Sheba
<07614>

gave
<05414> (8804)

to king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>_.

10:11

And the navy
<0590>

also of Hiram
<02438>_,

that brought
<05375> (8804)

gold
<02091>

from Ophir
<0211>_,

brought in
<0935> (8689)

from Ophir
<0211>

great
<03966>

plenty
<07235> (8687)

of almug
<0484>

trees
<06086>_,

and precious
<03368>

<068>_.

{almug...: also called, algum trees}

10:12

And the king
<04428>

made
<06213> (8799)

of the almug
<0484>

trees
<06086>

pillars
<04552>

for the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and for the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

harps
<03658>

also and psalteries
<05035>

for singers
<07891> (8802)_:

there came
<0935> (8804)

no such almug
<0484>

trees
<06086>_,

nor were seen
<07200> (8738)

unto this day
<03117>_.

{pillars: or, rails: Heb. a prop}

10:13

And king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

gave
<05414> (8804)

unto the queen
<04436>

of Sheba
<07614>

all her desire
<02656>_,

whatsoever she asked
<07592> (8804)_,

beside [that] which Solomon
<08010>

gave
<05414> (8804)

her of his royal
<04428>

bounty
<03027>_.

So she turned
<06437> (8799)

and went
<03212> (8799)

to her own country
<0776>_,

she and her servants
<05650>_.
