⁵I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits:
⁶I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees:
⁷I got me servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me:
⁸I gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings and of the provinces: I gat me men singers and women singers, and the delights of the sons of men, as musical instruments, and that of all sorts.
