2 Tawarikh 9:3-4

9:3 When the queen of Sheba saw for herself Solomon’s extensive wisdom, ¹  the palace ²  he had built, 9:4 the food in his banquet hall, ³  his servants and attendants ⁴  in their robes, his cupbearers in their robes, and his burnt sacrifices which he presented in the Lord’s temple, ⁵  she was amazed. ⁶ 

[9:3]  ¹ tn Heb “all the wisdom of Solomon.”

[9:3]  ² tn Heb “house.”

[9:4]  ³ tn Heb “the food on his table.”

[9:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “the seating of his servants and the standing of his attendants.”

[9:4]  ⁵ tc The Hebrew text has here, “and his upper room [by] which he was going up to the house of the Lord.” But עֲלִיָּתוֹ (’aliyyato, “his upper room”) should be emended to עֹלָתוֹ, (’olato, “his burnt sacrifice[s]”). See the parallel account in 1 Kgs 10:5.

[9:4]  ⁶ tn Or “it took her breath away”; Heb “there was no breath still in her.”
