## 1 Kings 10:14-17 in Context (Verses 11–20 KJV)
 
 [11 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/11) And the navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of almug trees, and precious stones.*
 
 [12 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/12) And the king made of the almug trees pillars for the house of the LORD, and for the king’s house, harps also and psalteries for singers: there came no such almug trees, nor were seen unto this day.*
 
 [13 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/13) And king Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside *that* which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants.*
 
 [14 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/14) ¶ Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold,
 
 [15 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/15) Beside *that he had* of the merchantmen, and of the traffick of the spice merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the country.*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/16) ¶ And king Solomon made two hundred targets *of* beaten gold: six hundred *shekels* of gold went to one target.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/17) And *he made* three hundred shields *of* beaten gold; three pound of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/18) ¶ Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the best gold.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/19) The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne *was* round behind: and *there were* stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.**
 
 [20 ](/kjv/1-kings/10/20) 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.*
