in

unto
Solomon, and
speaketh
with him all that hath
been
with
her heart ,

she was
come
to
Solomon, she
communed
with him of
all that was
in
her heart .

his stewards
, and their clothing,
an
his burnt-offering

True `is'

and concerning
thy wisdom ,

the king, It
was
a
true report
which
I heard in mine
own
land of
thine
acts,
and of
thy wisdom :
and
I have
given
no
credence
to
their words, till
that
I have
come
, and mine eyes see,
and lo
, there
hath
not
been
declared
to
me
the half of the abundance
of thy wisdom --
thou hast
added
unto
the report
that I heard.
Howbeit
I believed
not
their words, until
I came
, and mine eyes had
seen
it:
and, behold,
the one
half of the greatness
of thy wisdom was
not
told
me:
for
thou exceedest
the fame
that I heard.

before thee continually
, and hearing
thy wisdom.

are
thy men, and happy
are
these
thy servants ,
which
stand
continually
before thee, and hear
thy wisdom.

Jehovah
thy God be
blessed

delighted in thee ,
to put
thee on His throne for
king for Jehovah
thy God ;
in
the
love
of
thy God to
Israel, to establish it
to
the
age
, He hath
put
thee over them for
king
, to do judgment and righteousness
. '
Blessed

the
LORD
thy God ,
which
delighted in thee to set
thee on his throne ,
to
be
king for the
LORD
thy God :
because
thy God loved
Israel, to establish them
for
ever
, therefore
made
he thee king
over them, to do judgment and justice
.
