1 Kings 10:21-23
New King James Version
21 (A)All King Solomon’s drinking vessels were gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Not one was silver, for this was accounted as nothing in the days of Solomon. 22 For the king had (B)merchant[a] ships at sea with the fleet of Hiram. Once every three years the merchant (C)ships came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and [b]monkeys. 23 So (D)King Solomon surpassed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.
