СКАЧАТЬ But of the children of Israel did Solomon make no servants for his work; but they were men of war, and chief of his captains, and captains of his chariots and horsemen.

      14:008:010 And these were the chief of king Solomon's officers, even two hundred and fifty, that bare rule over the people.

      14:008:011 And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her: for he said, My wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy, whereunto the ark of the LORD hath come.

      14:008:012 Then Solomon offered burnt offerings unto the LORD on the altar of the LORD, which he had built before the porch,

      14:008:013 Even after a certain rate every day, offering according to the commandment of Moses, on the sabbaths, and on the new moons, and on the solemn feasts, three times in the year, even in the feast of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the feast of tabernacles.

      14:008:014 And he appointed, according to the order of David his father, the courses of the priests to their service, and the Levites to their charges, to praise and minister before the priests, as the duty of every day required: the porters also by their courses at every gate: for so had David the man of God commanded.

      14:008:015 And they departed not from the commandment of the king unto the priests and Levites concerning any matter, or concerning the treasures.

      14:008:016 Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected.

      14:008:017 Then went Solomon to Eziongeber, and to Eloth, at the sea side in the land of Edom.

      14:008:018 And Huram sent him by the hands of his servants ships, and servants that had knowledge of the sea; and they went with the servants of Solomon to Ophir, and took thence four hundred and fifty talents of gold, and brought them to king Solomon.

      14:009:001 And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to prove Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem, with a very great company, and camels that bare spices, and gold in abundance, and precious stones: and when she was come to Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.

      14:009:002 And Solomon told her all her questions: and there was nothing hid from Solomon which he told her not.

      14:009:003 And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built,

      14:009:004 And the meat of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel; his cupbearers also, and their apparel; and his ascent by which he went up into the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit in her.

      14:009:005 And she said to the king, It was a true report which I heard in mine own land of thine acts, and of thy wisdom:

      14:009:006 Howbeit I believed not their words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the one half of the greatness of thy wisdom was not told me: for thou exceedest the fame that I heard.

      14:009:007 Happy are thy men, and happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee, and hear thy wisdom.

      14:009:008 Blessed be the LORD thy God, which delighted in thee to set thee on his throne, to be king for the LORD thy God: because thy God loved Israel, to establish them for ever, therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and justice.

      14:009:009 And she gave the king an hundred and twenty talents of gold, and of spices great abundance, and precious stones: neither was there any such spice as the queen of Sheba gave king Solomon.

      14:009:010 And the servants also of Huram, and the servants of Solomon, which brought gold from Ophir, brought algum trees and precious stones.

      14:009:011 And the king made of the algum trees terraces to the house of the LORD, and to the king's palace, and harps and psalteries for singers: and there were none such seen before in the land of Judah.

      14:009:012 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside that which she had brought unto the king. So she turned, and went away to her own land, she and her servants.

      14:009:013 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and threescore and six talents of gold;

      14:009:014 Beside that which chapmen and merchants brought. And all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon.

      14:009:015 And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold: six hundred shekels of beaten gold went to one target.

      14:009:016 And three hundred shields made he of beaten gold: three hundred shekels of gold went to one shield. And the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

      14:009:017 Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.

      14:009:018 And there were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne, and stays on each side of the sitting place, and two lions standing by the stays:

      14:009:019 And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps. There was not the like made in any kingdom.

      14:009:020 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 pure gold: none were of silver; it was not any thing accounted of in the days of Solomon.

      14:009:021 For the king's ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Huram: every three years once came the ships of Tarshish bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.

      14:009:022 And king Solomon passed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.

      14:009:023 And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, that God had put in his heart.

      14:009:024 And they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and raiment, harness, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.

      14:009:025 And Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen; whom he bestowed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.

      14:009:026 And he reigned over all the kings from the river even unto the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt.

      14:009:027 And the king made silver in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar trees made he as the sycomore trees that are in the low plains in abundance.

      14:009:028 And they brought unto Solomon horses out of Egypt, and out of all lands.

      14:009:029 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer against Jeroboam the son of Nebat?

      14:009:030 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.

      14:009:031 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.

      14:010:001 And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for to Shechem were all Israel come to make him king.
