2 Chronicles 9:13-28 - Solomon's Great Wealth

¹³ Now, the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold; ¹⁴ besides what came in from the subjugated, and what the travelling merchants were bringing in, - and, all the kings of Arabia and the pashas of the land, were bringing gold and silver, unto Solomon.

¹⁵ And King Solomon made two hundred shields of beaten gold, - six hundred shekels of beaten gold, overlay one shield; ¹⁶ also three hundred bucklers of beaten gold, three hundred shekels of gold, overlay one buckler, - and the king placed them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

¹⁷ And the king made a great throne of ivory, - and overlaid it with pure gold; ¹⁸ and there were six steps to the throne, and a footstool in gold, unto the throne, made fast, and supports, on this side and on that, unto the seat, - and, two lions, standing by the supports; ¹⁹ and, twelve lions, standing there upon the six steps, on this side and on that, - there was never made the like, for any kingdom.

²⁰ And, all the drinking vessels of King Solomon, were of gold, and, all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon, were of purified gold, - there was no silver, it was esteemed, in the days of Solomon, as nothing. ²¹ For, the ships of the king, used to go to Tarshish, with the servants of Huram, - once in three years, came in the ships of Tarshish, bearing gold and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.

²² And so King Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth, - as to riches, and wisdom. ²³ And, all the kings of the earth, were seeking the face of Solomon, - to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart; ²⁴ and, they, were bringing in every man his present - utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and mantles, armour, and spices, horses and mules, - the need of a year in a year.

²⁵ And Solomon had four thousand stalls of horses, and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, - and he settled them in the chariot cities, and with the king in Jerusalem. ²⁶ And he ruled over all the kings, - from the river Euphrates , even up to the land of the Philistines, yea up to the bounds of Egypt. ²⁷ And the king made the silver in Jerusalem like the stones, - and, the cedar trees, made he like the sycomores which are in the lowland, for abundance. ²⁸ And they used to bring horses out of Egypt unto Solomon, and out of all lands.
