And when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
1 Kings 10:5
And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.

And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.

But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and now I see that it was not half the story; your wisdom and your wealth are much greater than they said.
1 Kings 10:8
Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
