2 Chronicles 9:12-19 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

12. And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, more than that which she had brought unto the king. So she turned, and went away to her own land, she and her servants.

13. Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and threescore and six talents of gold;

14. Besides that which traders and merchants brought. And all the kings of Arabia and governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon.

15. And king Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold: six hundred shekels of hammered gold went to each large shield.

16. And three hundred shields made he of hammered gold: three hundred shekels of gold went to one shield. And the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

17. Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.

18. And there were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne, and arm rests on each side of the seat, and two lions standing by the arm rests:

19. And twelve lions stood there, one on each side upon the six steps. There was not the like of which made in any kingdom.
