## 代下9:1
示巴女王听见所罗门的名声,就来到耶路撒冷,要用难解的话试问所罗门。跟随她的人甚多,又有骆驼驮着香料、宝石和许多金子。她来见了所罗门,就把心里所有的,对所罗门都说出来。
2Ch 9:1 Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem to test him with hard questions, having a very great retinue and camels bearing spices and very much gold and precious stones. And when she came to Solomon, she told him all that was on her mind.”
## 代下9:2

2Ch 9:2 And Solomon answered all her questions. There was nothing hidden from Solomon that he could not explain to her.
## 代下9:3
示巴女王见所罗门的智慧和他所建造的宫室,
2Ch 9:3 “And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, the house that he had built,”
## 代下9:4
席上的珍馐美味,群臣分列而坐,仆人两旁侍立,以及他们的衣服装饰,酒政和酒政的衣服装饰,又见他上耶和华殿的台阶,就诧异得神不守舍。
2Ch 9:4 “the food of his table, the seating of his officials, and the attendance of his servants, and their clothing, his cupbearers, and their clothing, and his burnt offerings that he offered at the house of the LORD, there was no more breath in her.”
## 代下9:5
对王说:“我在本国里所听见论到你的事和你的智慧,实在是真的。
2Ch 9:5 “And she said to the king, “The report was true that I heard in my own land of your words and of your wisdom,”
## 代下9:6
我先不信那些话,及至我来亲眼见了,才知道你的大智慧,人所告诉我的,还不到一半;你的实迹,越过我所听见的名声。
2Ch 9:6 “but I did not believe the reports until I came and my own eyes had seen it. And behold, half the greatness of your wisdom was not told me; you surpass the report that I heard.”

2Ch 9:11 “And the king made from the algum wood supports for the house of the LORD and for the king’s house, lyres also and harps for the singers. There never was seen the like of them before in the land of Judah.”
## 代下9:12
所罗门王按示巴女王所带来的还她礼物,另外照她一切所要所求的,都送给她。于是女王和她臣仆转回本国去了。

## 代下9:20
所罗门王一切的饮器都是金的,黎巴嫩林宫里的一切器皿都是精金的。所罗门年间,银子算不了什么。
