15. And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold, --he applied six hundred shekels of beaten gold to one target;
16. and three hundred shields of beaten gold, --he applied three hundred shekels of gold to one shield; and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17. And the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold;
18. and the throne had six steps, with a footstool of gold fastened to the throne; and there were arms on each side at the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the arms;
19. and twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom.
20. And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of precious gold: silver was not of the least account in the days of Solomon.
21. For the king's ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Huram: once in three years came the ships of Tarshish, bringing gold and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
