1. And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the Lord, she came to prove him with enigmas.
2. And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices and very much gold and precious stones; and when she was come to Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.
3. And Solomon told her all her questions; there was not any thing hid from the king, which he did not tell her.
4. And when the queen of Sheba had seen all Solomon’s wisdom and the house that he had built,
5. likewise the food of his table and the sitting of his slaves and the attendance of his ministers and their apparel, and his butlers and his burnt offering which he sacrificed in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
6. And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in my own land of thy words and of thy wisdom.
