1 Kings 10:8

6 Then she said to the king: “It was a true report which I heard in my own land about your words and your wisdom.

7 However I did not believe the words until I came and saw with my own eyes; and indeed the half was not told me. Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame of which I heard.

8 ^aHappy are your men and happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom!

9 ^aBlessed be the Lord your God, who ^bdelighted in you, setting you on the throne of Israel! Because the Lord has loved Israel forever, therefore He made you king, ^cto do justice and righteousness.”

10 Then she ^agave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, spices in great quantity, and precious stones. There never again came such abundance of spices as the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
