1. Now the queen of Sheba had heard of the fame of Solomon regarding the name of Yahweh, and she came to test him with hard questions.
2. So she came to Jerusalem with very great wealth; with camels carrying spices, very much gold, and precious stones. She came to Solomon, and she spoke to him all that was on her heart.
3. Solomon answered all of her questions; there was not a thing hidden from the king which he could not explain to her.
4. When the queen of Sheba observed all the wisdom of Solomon and the house which he had built,
5. the food of his table, the seat of his servants, the manner of his servants and their clothing, his cupbearers, and his burnt offerings which he offered in the house of Yahweh, she was breathless.
