23 And all the kinges of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to heare his wysedome that God had put in his heart. 24 And they brought euery man his present, vessels of siuer, & vessels of golde, rayment, harnesse, spises, horses, and mules, and whatsoeuer might be gotten yere by yere. 25 And Solomon had foure thousand stalles for horses, and charrettes, and twelue thousand horsemen: whom he bestowed in the charet cities, and some were with the king at Hierusalem. 26 And he raigned ouer all the kinges that were from Euphrates, vnto the lande of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. 27 And the king made siluer in Hierusalem as plenteous as stones, and Cedar trees as plenteous as ye Mulberie trees that growe in the valleys: 28 And they brought vnto Solomon horses, out of Egypt, and out of all landes. 29 The rest of the actes of king Solomon first and last, are they not written in the sayings of Nathan the prophete, and in the prophecie of Ahiah the Silonite, and in the visions of Iddo the sear of visions against Ieroboam the sonne of Nabat? 30 And Solomon raigned in Hierusalem vpon all Israel fouretie yeres. 31 And Solomon slept with his fathers: and they buried him in the citie of Dauid his father, & Rehoboam his sonne raigned in his steade. 2 Chronicles 9:23-31, Bishops' Bible of 1568.
