27Those officers provided victuals for king Solomon, and for all who came to king Solomon`s table, every man in his month; they let nothing be lacking.
28Barley also and straw for the horses and swift steeds brought they to the place where [the officers] were, every man according to his charge.
29God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and very great understanding, even as the sand that is on the sea-shore.
30Solomon`s wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east, and all the wisdom of Egypt.
31For 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.
32He spoke three thousand proverbs; and his songs were one thousand five.
33He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall; he spoke also of animals, and of birds, and of creeping things, and of fish.
