12. King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire which she requested besides a return for what she had brought to the king. Then she turned and went to her own land with her servants.
13. Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold,
14. besides that which the traders and merchants brought; and all the kings of Arabia and the governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon.
15. King Solomon made 200 large shields of beaten gold, using 600 shekels of beaten gold on each large shield.
16. He made 300 shields of beaten gold, using three hundred shekels of gold on each 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. There were six steps to the throne and a footstool in gold attached to the throne, and arms on each side of the seat, and two lions standing beside the arms.
19. Twelve lions were standing there on the six steps on the one side and on the other; nothing like it was made for any other kingdom.
