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.
11 aAlso, the ships of Hiram, which brought gold from Ophir, brought great quantities of1 almug wood and precious stones from Ophir.
12 aAnd the king made1 steps of the almug wood for the house of the Lord and for the king’s house, also harps and stringed instruments for singers. There never again came such balmug wood, nor has the like been seen to this day.
13 Now King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desired, whatever she asked, besides what Solomon had given her according to the royal generosity. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants.
