1 Kings 10:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ Concerning thy words, and concerning thy wisdom. And I did not believe them that told me, till I came myself, and saw with my own eyes, and have found that the half hath not been told me: thy wisdom and thy works, exceed the fame which I heard.

⁸ Blessed are thy men, and blessed are thy servants, who stand before thee always, and hear thy wisdom.

⁹ Blessed be the Lord thy God, whom thou hast pleased, and who hath set thee upon the throne of Israel, because the Lord hath loved Israel for ever, and hath appointed thee king, to do judgment and justice.
