1 Kings 10:20 in Context — 1 Kings 10

18 Le roi fit un grand trône d’ivoire, et le couvrit d’or pur.

19 Ce trône avait six degrés, et la partie supérieure en était arrondie par derrière; il y avait des bras de chaque côté du siège; deux lions étaient près des bras,

20 et douze lions sur les six degrés de part et d’autre. Il ne s’est rien fait de pareil pour aucun royaume.

21 Toutes les coupes du roi Salomon étaient d’or, et toute la vaisselle de la maison de la forêt du Liban était d’or pur. Rien n’était d’argent: on n’en faisait aucun cas du temps de Salomon.

22 Car le roi avait en mer des navires de Tarsis avec ceux de Hiram; et tous les trois ans arrivaient les navires de Tarsis, apportant de l’or et de l’argent, de l’ivoire, des singes et des paons.
