1Ki 4:29-31:

4:29 Shelomoh’s wisdom

29God gave Shelomoh wisdom and incredible understanding, and the breadth of his interests seemed without limit. 30He was wiser than anyone in the countries east of Israel or in Egypt. 31He was wiser than anyone else, including Eytan the Ezrahite and Mahol’s son Heman and Kalkol and Darda, and his reputation spread to all the surrounding countries.[ref]

1Ki 10:23-27:

23King Shelomoh became richer and wiser than any other king in the world, 24and even people from distant countries would come to see Shelomoh to listen to the wisdom that God had given him. 25Every visitor would bring a gift: gold containers, clothes, weapons, spices, horses and mules. This continued year after year.

26Shelomoh acquired 1,400 chariots and twelve thousand horsemen. He stationed most of them in his chariot cities and some with him there in Yerushalem.[ref] 27While he was king, silver in Yerushalem was given a value similar to stones, and cedar timber was given a value like that of the sycamores that grow in plenty in the lowlands.[ref]

10Then the queen gave to king four tonnes of gold and very many spices and precious gemstones. Never again did King Shelomoh receive more spices than what the queen gave him that day.

10:10 Shelomoh’s wealth

(2 Chr. 9:13-29)

14The amount of gold that came to Shelomoh in one year was around twenty-two tonnes, 15not counting what came from explorers and traders, and all the Arab kings, and the governors of the land.

16King Shelomoh had two hundred body shields made from beaten gold overlaid over wood—each shield took six kilograms of gold. 17He also had three hundred smaller shields made—each of them covered with two kilograms of gold—and placed in hisLebanon Forest Hall’.

18The king had a large ivory throne made and overlaid with pure gold. 19It had six steps going up to it and the seat-back was rounded at the top. It had armrests on both sides, then a lion on each side next to the armrests, 20plus twelve lions standing one on each side of the six steps. There was nothing like it in any other kingdom.

21All of Shelomoh’s cups were gold, and the various dishes in the ‘Lebanon Forest Hall’ were also pure gold. Nothing was made out of silver because it was considered to be of little value during Shelomoh’s time 22because the king had a fleet of ships that joined King Hiram’s fleet. Every three years the fleet would return bringin gold and silver, ivory, monkeys and baboons.[fn]
