22. So King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and wisdom.
23. All the kings of the earth sought out an audience before Solomon to hear his wisdom that God gave to his mind.
24. Every year each man brought his own tribute, vessels of silver and gold, garments, myrrh, spices, horses, and mules.
25. Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots and twelve thousand horses, and he put them in designated cities and with him in Jerusalem.
26. He ruled over all the kings from the River to the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt.
27. So the king made silver in Jerusalem as abundant as stones and cedar as plentiful as sycamore trees in the lowlands of the Shephelah.
28. The horses of Solomon were imported from Egypt and from all other lands.
29. And the rest of the acts of Solomon, from beginning to end, are they not written in the annals of Nathan the prophet, and the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam the son of Nebat?
30. So Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel for forty years.
31. And Solomon slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David his father. And Rehoboam his son then ruled in his place.
