2 Chronicles 9:10

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

In return, Solomon gave her everything she wanted—even more than she had given him. Then she and her officials went back to their own country. Hiram's and Solomon's sailors brought gold, juniper wood, and jewels from the country of Ophir. Solomon used the wood to make steps for the temple and palace, and harps and other stringed instruments for the musicians. Nothing like these had ever been made in Judah.
