1 Kings 10:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 And King Solomon gave unto the Queen of Sheba, whatsoever she would ask, besides that, which Solomon gave her of his [a]kingly liberality: so she returned and went to her own country, both she and her servants.
14 ¶ Also the weight of gold, that came to Solomon in one year, was six hundred threescore and six (A)talents of gold,
15 Besides that he had of merchant men and of the merchandises of them that sold spices, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the princes of the [b]country.
