2 Chronicles 9:1-4 ▼

1 When the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem to test Solomon with riddles. She was accompanied by a very large number of attendants, with camels bearing spices (balsam oil) and a large amount of gold and precious stones. And when she came to Solomon, she talked with him about all that was on her mind.

2 Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was hidden from him which he did not make clear to her.

3 So when the queen of Sheba saw the [depth of] Solomon’s wisdom, and the house which he had built,

4 and the food of his table, the [vast] seating order of his officials, the attendance and service of his ministers and their attire, his cupbearers and their attire, and his stairway by which he went up to the house of the LORD, she was breathless.
