The throne had six steps, and its back had a rounded top. On both sides of the seat were armrests, with a lion standing beside each of them.
Then the king made a great throne covered with ivory and overlaid with fine gold.
Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one at either end of each step. Nothing like it had ever been made for any other kingdom.
I undertook great projects: I built houses for myself and planted vineyards.
