1 Kings 10:5-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 10
5and the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the service of his waiters and their attire, his cupbearers, and his burnt offerings which he offered at the house of the Lord, she was breathless. 6Then she said to the king, 'It was a true story that I heard in my own land about your words and your wisdom. 7But I did not believe the stories until I came and my own eyes saw it all. And behold, the half of it was not reported to me. You have exceeded in wisdom and prosperity the report which I heard. 8Blessed are your men, and blessed are these servants of yours who stand before you continually and hear your wisdom!King James Version
Chapter 10
5And the meat of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up unto the house of the Lord; there was no more spirit in her. 6And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thy acts and of thy wisdom. 7Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me: thy wisdom and prosperity exceedeth the fame which I heard. 8Happy are thy men, happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee, and that hear thy wisdom.Christian Standard Bible
6She said to the king, "The report I heard in my own country about your words and about your wisdom is true.
7But I didn’t believe the reports until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, I was not even told half. Your wisdom and prosperity far exceed the report I heard.
8How happy are your men. How happy are these servants of yours, who always stand in your presence hearing your wisdom.
New Living Translation
6She exclaimed to the king, 'Everything I heard in my country about your achievements and wisdom is true!
7I didn’t believe what was said until I arrived here and saw it with my own eyes. In fact, I had not heard the half of it! Your wisdom and prosperity are far beyond what I was told.
8How happy your people must be! What a privilege for your officials to stand here day after day, listening to your wisdom!
English Standard Version
6And she said to the king, "The report was true that I heard in my own land of your words and of your wisdom,
7but I did not believe the reports until I came and my own eyes had seen it. And behold, the half was not told me. Your wisdom and prosperity surpass the report that I heard.
8Happy are your men! Happy are your servants, who continually stand before you and hear your wisdom!
New International Version

7But I did not believe these things until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not even half was told me; in wisdom and wealth you have far exceeded the report I heard.
8How happy your people must be! How happy your officials, who continually stand before you and hear your wisdom!
