She (the Queen of Sheba) said: 'O Council, look, an honorable letter has been dropped to me. (29)

It is from Solomon and it is "In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful. (30)

Do not rise up against me, but come to me in surrender (Muslims)." (31)

She said: 'O Council, let me hear your counsel, concerning my affairs, for I am not used to deciding an affair until you bear me witness. ' (32)

They replied: 'We are possessors of force and great might. It is for you to command, so consider what you will. ' (33)

She said: 'When kings enter a village, they ruin it and humiliate its nobles. And this they will do. (34)

But I shall send them a gift and see what the messengers bring back. ' (35)

But when he came to Solomon, he said: 'Is it wealth that you would give me, when Allah has given me that which is better than He has given to you? No, but instead you rejoice in your gift! (36)

Go back then, we shall surely come against them with soldiers of which they have no power to oppose, and we shall drive them from there abased and humiliated. ' (37)

And he said: 'O Council, which of you will bring me her throne, before they come to me, Muslims (submissive to Allah)? ' (38)
