26 And Solomon had nforty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. 27 And those oofficers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon’s table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing. 28 Barley also and straw for the horses and ||dromedaries brought they unto the place where the officers were, every man according to his charge.

29 And pGod gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even qas the sand that is on the sea shore. 30 And Solomon’s wisdom excelled the wisdom of all rthe children of the east country, and all sthe wisdom of Egypt. 31 For he was twiser than all men; uthan Ethan the vEzrahite, and wHeman, and xChalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about. 32 And yhe spake three thousand proverbs: and his zsongs were a thousand and five. 33 And he spake of trees, from athe cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto bthe hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes. 34 And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from call kings of the earth, which had heard of his wisdom.
