Now the weight of the gold, which was being brought to Solomon throughout each year, was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
apart from the sum that the legates of various nations and the merchants were accustomed to bring, and apart from the gold and silver that all the kings of Arabia, and the princes of the lands, were bringing together for Solomon.
And so, king Solomon made two hundred gold spears, from six hundred gold pieces, the amount used for each spear,
and also three hundred gold shields, from three hundred gold pieces, which covered each shield. And the king placed them in the armory, which was situated in a forest.
Also, the king made a great ivory throne, and he clothed it with the purest gold.
And there were six steps, by which he would ascend to the throne, and a footstool of gold, and two arms, one on each side, and two lions standing beside the arms.
Moreover, there were twelve additional little lions standing upon the six steps on both sides. There was no similar throne in all the kingdoms.
