1 Kings 4:25-32

²⁵(5-5) And Judah and Israel dwelt safely, every man under his vine and under his fig-tree, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, all the days of Solomon.

²⁶(5-6) And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.

²⁷(5-7) And those officers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon's table, every man in his month; they let nothing be lacking.

²⁸(5-8) Barley also and straw for the horses and swift steeds brought they unto the place where it should be, every man according to his charge.

²⁹(5-9) And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea-shore.

³⁰(5-10) And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east, and all the wisdom of Egypt.

³¹(5-11) For he was wiser than all men: than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was in all the nations round about.

³²(5-12) And he spoke three thousand proverbs; and his songs were a thousand and five.
