1 Kings 3:5-8

5At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream at night. God said, “Ask. What should I give you?”

6And Solomon replied, “You have shown great and faithful love to your servant, my father David, because he walked before you in faithfulness, righteousness, and integrity. You have continued this great and faithful love for him by giving him a son to sit on his throne, as it is today.

7“Lord my God, you have now made your servant king in my father David’s place. Yet I am just a youth with no experience in leadership.

8Your servant is among your people you have chosen, a people too many to be numbered or counted.
