Kings I|4:30 And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east
country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.Kings I|4:31 For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and
Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about.Kings I|4:32 And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and
five.Kings I|4:33 And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that [is] in Lebanon even unto the
hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping
things, and of fishes.Kings I|4:34 And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings
of the earth, which had heard of his wisdom.Kings I|5:1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants unto Solomon; for he had heard that
they had anointed him king in the room of his father: for Hiram was ever a lover of David.Kings I|5:2 And Solomon sent to Hiram, saying,Kings I|5:3 Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the
name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side, until the
LORD put them under the soles of his feet.Kings I|5:4 But now the LORD my God hath given me rest on every side, [so that there is]
neither adversary nor evil occurrent.Kings I|5:5 And, behold, I purpose to build an house unto the name of the LORD my
God, as the LORD spake unto David my father, saying, Thy son, whom I will set upon thy
throne in thy room, he shall build an house unto my name.(^) KINGS I | Holy Bible | Old Testament | King James | Book 11
