In context
1The queen of Sheba heard of Solomon’s fame and came to Jerusalem to put him to the test with riddles. She arrived with a very large retinue, camels loaded with spices, gold in abundance and precious stones; and when she reached Solomon she talked with him about everything that was on her mind. 2Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too obscure for Solomon to explain to her. 3So the queen of Sheba took in Solomon’s wisdom, the house he had built, 4the food on his table, the seating of his officials, the attendance of his servants and their robes, his cupbearers and their robes, and the ascent by which he went up to the house of Yahweh, it left her breathless.
