Or la reine de Shéba, ayant appris la renommée de Salomon, vint à Jérusalem pour éprouver Salomon par des questions obscures. Elle avait un fort grand train, et des chameaux portant des aromates, de l'or en grande quantité et des pierres précieuses. Elle vint à Salomon, et elle lui dit tout ce qu'elle avait dans le cœur.
La reine de Séba apprit la renommée de Salomon, et elle vint à Jérusalem pour l'éprouver par des énigmes.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The narrative here is parallel with that in marginal reference, from which it varies but little, and to which it adds nothing.
2 Chronicles 9:11
Terraces - Rather, as in the margin, “stairs” (see the 1 Kings 10:12 note).
2 Chronicles 9:12
Beside that which she had brought unto the king - It is difficult to assign any sense to these words as they now stand in the Hebrew text. A slight alteration will give the meaning: “Beside that which the king had brought for her;” which is in conformity with 1 Kings 10:13.
