ગુજરાતી2 કાળવૃતાંત ૯:૨૦
સુલેમાન રાજાનાં પીવાનાં સર્વ પાત્રો અને લબાનોન વનગૃહનાં સર્વ પાત્રો શુદ્ધ સોનાનાં હતાં. સુલેમાનના દિવસોમાં ચાંદીની કશી વિસાત ગણાતી ન હતી.
हिन्दी2 इतिहास ९:२०
राजा सुलैमान के पीने के सब पात्र सोने के थे, और लबानोन के वन नामक महल के सब पात्र भी शुद्ध सोने के थे; सुलैमान के दिनों में चाँदी का कोई मूल्य न था।

In context

18There were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne, and armrests on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.

19Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps. There was nothing like it made in any other kingdom.

20All King Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. Silver was not considered valuable in the days of Solomon.

21For the king had ships that went to Tarshish with Huram’s servants. Once every three years, the ships of Tarshish came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.

22So King Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.
