*
So King Solomon surpassed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom .
*
Now all the earth sought the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom ,
which God had put in his heart .
*
Each man brought his present :
articles of silver and gold ,
garments ,
armor ,
spices ,
horses ,
and mules ,
at a set rate year by year .
*
And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen ;
he had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen ,
whom he stationed in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem .
*
The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones ,
and he made cedar trees as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland .
*
Also Solomon had horses imported from Egypt and Keveh ;
the king '
s merchants bought them in Keveh at the current price .
*
Now a chariot that was imported from Egypt cost six hundred shekels of silver ,
and a horse one hundred and fifty ;
and thus ,
through their agents ,
they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria .
