2 Chronicles 9:5-9

So she said to King Solomon, “What I heard in my own country about your achievements and wisdom is true.

I did not believe it then, but now I have come and seen it with my own eyes. I was not told even half of your great wisdom! You are much greater than I had heard.

Your people and officials are very lucky, because in always serving you, they are able to hear your wisdom.

Praise the Lord your God who was pleased to make you king. He has put you on his throne to rule for the Lord your God, because your God loves the people of Israel and supports them forever. He has made you king over them to keep justice and to rule fairly.”

Then she gave the king about nine thousand pounds of gold and many spices and jewels. No one had ever given such spices as the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
