1 Kings 10:11-13
American Standard Version
11 And the navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of [a]almug-trees and precious stones. 12 And the king made of the almug-trees [b]pillars for the house of Jehovah, and for the king’s house, harps also and psalteries for the singers: there came no such almug-trees, nor were seen, unto this day.
13 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, besides that [c]which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants.

11 (Hiram’s ships brought gold from Ophir;(A) and from there they brought great cargoes of almugwood[a] and precious stones. 12 The king used the almugwood to make supports[b] for the temple of the Lord and for the royal palace, and to make harps and lyres for the musicians. So much almugwood has never been imported or seen since that day.)
13 King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desired and asked for, besides what he had given her out of his royal bounty. Then she left and returned with her retinue to her own country.
