4 I expanded my pursuits. I built houses and planted vineyards for myself.

5 I made gardens and parks for myself, where I planted all kinds of fruit trees.

6 I built reservoirs to water my groves of flourishing trees.

7 I acquired menservants and maidservants, and servants were born in my house. I also owned more herds and flocks than anyone in Jerusalem before me,

8 and I accumulated for myself silver and gold and the treasure of kings and provinces. I gathered to myself male and female singers, and the delights of the sons of men— many concubines.

9 So I became great and surpassed all in Jerusalem who had preceded me; and my wisdom remained with me.
