SIL Translator’s Notes on 2 Chronicles 9:6

9:6a But I did not believe the reports until I came and saw with my own eyes.

But I did not believe what people said until I came here and my own eyes had seen it.
-or-
Truly, when I heard what people said, I did not believe it. But now that I see it myself, I believe it.

9:6b Indeed, not half of the greatness of your wisdom was told to me.

Truly, they did not tell me the half of the immensity of your wisdom.
-or-
You are very wise and what they told me was not even half of what I can see.

9:6c You have far exceeded the report I heard.

You are far greater than what I heard.
-or-
I can even say that you are wiser than what people told me.
