1 Kings 10
Jubilee Bible 2000
10 ¶ 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.
7 But I did not believe it until I came, and my eyes have seen that not even the half was told me. Thy wisdom and good exceeds the fame which I heard.
8 Blessed are thy men, blessed are these thy slaves, who stand continually before thee and that hear thy wisdom.
9 Blessed be the LORD thy God, who delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel; because the LORD has always loved Israel, therefore he made thee king, to do justice and righteousness.
10 And she gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold and a very great store of spices and precious stones; never again did there come such abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
11 And the navy of Hiram, that had brought the gold from Ophir, also brought in from Ophir a great plenty of brazil wood and precious stones.
12 And the king made of the brazil wood banisters for the house of the LORD and for the king’s houses, harps also and psalteries for the singers; there never had been such brazil wood, nor was it seen again unto this day.
13 And King Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, beside that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her slaves.
14 ¶ Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
15 besides what he had from the merchantmen and from the trade of the spice merchants and from all the kings of Arabia and from the princes of the land.
16 And King Solomon made two hundred shields of beaten gold; six hundred shekels of gold went into each shield.
17 Likewise he made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three pounds of gold went into each shield; and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
18 The king also made a great throne of ivory and overlaid it with the purest gold.
19 The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind, and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.
20 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 other kingdom.
21 And all King Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold, and likewise all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; there was no silver, for in the days of Solomon it was not esteemed.
22 For the king had at sea a navy of Tarshish with the navy of Hiram; once every three years the navy of Tarshish came, bringing gold, silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
23 So King Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom.
24 And all the earth sought to see the face of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
25 And they each one brought his presents each year, vessels of gold and vessels of silver and garments and arms and spices, horses, and mules.
26 And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen, and he had a thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he put in the cities of the chariots and with the king at Jerusalem.
27 And the king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedars to be as the sycamore trees that are in the vale, for abundance.
28 And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt and linen yarn, for the king’s merchants bought the horses and yarn.
29 And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty, and so by their hand they supplied all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.
列王纪上 10

示巴女王拜访所罗门(A)
10 示巴女王听见所罗门因耶和华的名所得的名声，就来要用难题考问所罗门。 2 她带着很多的随从来到耶路撒冷，有骆驼驮着香料、极多金子和宝石。她来到所罗门那里，向他提出心中所有的问题。 3 所罗门回答了她所有的问题，没有一个问题太难，王不能向她解答的。 4 示巴女王看见所罗门一切的智慧，和他所建造的宫殿， 5 席上的食物，坐着的群臣，侍立的仆人，他们的服装，和他的司酒长，以及他在耶和华殿里所献的燔祭[a]，就诧异得神不守舍。
6 她对王说：“我在本国所听到的话，论到你的事和你的智慧是真的！ 7 我本来不信那些话，及至我来亲眼看见了，看哪，人所告诉我的还不到一半，你的智慧和你的福分超过我所听见的传闻。 8 你的人[b]是有福的！你这些仆人常侍立在你面前、听你智慧的话是有福的！ 9 耶和华—你的 神是应当称颂的！他喜爱你，使你坐以色列的王位，因为他永远爱以色列，所以立你作王，使你秉公行义。” 10 于是，示巴女王把一百二十他连得金子、极多的香料和宝石送给所罗门王；送来的香料，从来没有像示巴女王送给他的那么多。
11 希兰的船只也从俄斐运了金子来，又从俄斐运了许多檀香木和宝石来。 12 王用檀香木为耶和华的殿和王宫做栏杆，又为歌唱的人做琴瑟。以后再没有这样的檀香木运进来，也再没有人见过，直到如今。
13 所罗门王除了照自己的厚意馈赠示巴女王之外，凡她所提出的一切要求，所罗门王都送给她。于是女王和她臣仆转回，到本国去了。
所罗门的财富(B)
14 所罗门每年所得的金子，重六百六十六他连得； 15 另外还有来自商人[c]和做生意的商品，以及阿拉伯诸王和各地省长的。 16 所罗门王用锤出来的金子打成二百面盾牌，每面盾牌用六百舍客勒金子； 17 又用锤出来的金子打成三百面小盾牌，每面小盾牌用三弥那金子。王把它们放在黎巴嫩林宫里。 18 王又制造一个大的象牙宝座，包上纯金。 19 宝座有六层台阶，座的后背是圆的，座位之处两旁有扶手，靠近扶手有两只狮子站立。 20 六层台阶上有十二只狮子站立，分站左边和右边；任何国度都没有这样做的。 21 所罗门王一切的饮器都是金的，黎巴嫩林宫里所有的器皿都是纯金的。在所罗门的日子，银子算不了什么。 22 王有他施船只与希兰的船只一同航海，他施船只每三年一次把金、银、象牙、猿猴、孔雀[d]运回来。
23 所罗门王的财宝与智慧胜过地上的众王。 24 全地都求见所罗门的面，要听 神放在他心里的智慧。 25 他们各带贡物，就是银器、金器、衣服、兵器、香料、马、骡子，每年都有一定的数量。
所罗门的兵力和财力(C)
26 所罗门聚集战车骑兵；他有一千四百辆战车，一万二千名骑兵，安置在屯车城，在耶路撒冷的王那里。 27 王在耶路撒冷使银子多如石头，香柏木多如谢非拉[e]的桑树。 28 所罗门的马是从埃及[f]和科威[g]运来的，是王的商人按着定价从科威买来的。 29 从埃及进口的战车，每辆六百舍客勒银子，马每匹一百五十舍客勒；赫人众王和亚兰诸王的战车和马，也是经由他们的手出口的。
