1 Kings 4:29 in Context — 1 Kings 4

27 E estes governadores mantinham ao rei Salomão, e a todos os que vinham à mesa do rei Salomão, a cada mês; e faziam que nada faltasse.

28 Faziam também trazer cevada e palha para os cavalos e para os animais de carga, ao lugar de onde ele estava, cada um conforme ao cargo que tinha.

29 E deu Deus a Salomão sabedoria, e prudência muito grande, e largura de coração como a areia que está à beira do mar.

30 Que foi maior a sabedoria de Salomão que a de todos os orientais, e que toda a sabedoria dos egípcios.

31 E ainda foi mais sábio que todos os homens; mais que Etã ezraíta, e que Hemã e Calcol e Darda, filhos de Maol: e foi nomeado entre todas as nações de ao redor.
