14. Now the weight of zahav that came to Sh'lomo in one year was 666 talents of zahav,
15. This was in addition to what he had of the anashei hatarim (merchants), and of the income of traders, and of all the Melachim of Arabia, and of the Governors of the land.
16. And HaMelech Sh'lomo made two hundred large shields of hammered zahav; six hundred shekels of zahav went to one shield.
17. And he made three hundred moginim of hammered zahav; three mina of zahav went to one mogen (shield); and HaMelech put them in the Bais Ya'ar HaLevanon.
18. Moreover HaMelech made a kisse shen gadol (great throne of ivory), and overlaid it with the finest, brightest zahav.
19. The kisse had shesh ma'alot (six steps), and the top of the kisse was rounded; and there were armrests on either side on the makom (place) of the seat, and two arayot (lions) stood beside the armrests.
20. And twelve arayim (lions) stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps; there was not the like made in any mamlakhot (kingdoms).
21. And all HaMelech Sh'lomo's kelei mashkeh (drinking vessels) were of zahav, and all the vessels of the Bais Ya'ar HaLevanon were of pure zahav; none were of kesef; it was nothing accounted of in the days of Sh'lomo.
22. For HaMelech had at sea a fleet of oniyyot Tarshish with the fleet of oniyyot of Chiram; once in shalosh shanim came the fleet of oniyyot Tarshish, bringing zahav, and kesef, ivory, and monkeys, and peacocks.
23. So HaMelech Sh'lomo exceeded all the Melachim of Ha'Aretz in osher and in chochmah.
24. And kol Ha'Aretz sought the face of Sh'lomo, to hear his chochmah, which Elohim had put in his lev.
25. They brought every ish his minchah, vessels of kesef, vessels of zahav, and robes, and weapons, and spices, susim, and peradim (mules), yearly at each year's due.
