1 Kings 10:5-7
American Standard Version
5 and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the [a]attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and [b]his ascent by which he went up unto the house of Jehovah; there was no more spirit in her. 6 And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thine [c]acts, and of thy wisdom. 7 Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me; [d]thy wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard.
