2 Chronicles 9:20-22

Living Bible

²⁰ All of King Solomon’s cups were solid gold, as were all the furnishings in the Forest of Lebanon Room. Silver was too cheap to count for much in those days!

²¹ Every three years the king sent his ships to Tarshish, using sailors supplied by King Hiram, to bring back gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.

²² So King Solomon was richer and wiser than any other king in all the earth.
