29. And God gave Solomon wisdom and very great understanding and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea-shore.
30. And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the sons of the east, and all the wisdom of Egypt.
31. For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was in all the nations round about.
32. And he spoke three thousand proverbs; and his songs were a thousand and five.
33. And he spoke of the trees, from the cedar-tree that is on Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall; he spoke also of cattle, and of fowls, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
