¹⁸ Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.

⁸ Your robes are full of the smell of all sorts of perfumes and spices; music from the king's ivory houses has made you glad.

²² For the king had Tarshish-ships at sea with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the Tarshish-ships came with gold and silver and ivory and monkeys and peacocks.

¹¹ And I saw a great white seat, and him who was seated on it, before whose face the earth and the heaven went in flight; and there was no place for them.

¹² Gold, and silver, and stones of great price, and jewels, and delicate linen, and robes of purple and silk and red; and perfumed wood, and every vessel of ivory, and every vessel made of fair wood, and of brass, and iron, and stone;

⁸ But of the Son he says, Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; and the rod of your kingdom is a rod of righteousness.

⁵ For there seats for the judges were placed, even the rulers' seats of the line of David.

¹ <A Psalm. Of David.> The Lord said to my lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put all those who are against you under your feet.

⁶ Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; the rod of your kingdom is a rod of honour.

¹⁷ Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.

¹⁸ There were six steps up to it, and a foot-rest of gold fixed to it, and arms on the two sides of the seat, with two lions at the side of the arms.

¹⁹ And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.

³⁹ Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all he did, and his ivory house, and all the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
