2 Chronicles 9:13-28

What an astonishing relation is here given of the riches, and splendor, and power, and sovereignty of Solomon. Surely never was there a king among the sons of men of equal grandeur and magnificence. And yet what is all this compared to the durable riches and righteousness of Jesus? All that Solomon possessed, he tells us himself, was but vanity. But Jesus's gifts are solid, and not liable to decay. I will cause those that love me (saith Jesus) to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. Proverbs 8:21.
