9 (A)Blessed be the Lord your God, who has delighted in you and set you on the throne of Israel! (B)Because the Lord loved Israel forever, he has made you king, (C)that you may execute justice and righteousness.” 10 (D)Then she gave the king 120 talents[a] of gold, and a very great quantity of spices and precious stones. Never again came such an abundance of spices as these that the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
11 Moreover, (E)the fleet of Hiram, which brought (F)gold from Ophir, brought from Ophir a very great amount of almug wood and precious stones.
