Christian Standard Bible
1 Kings 3:9-12
9So give your servant a receptive heart to judge your people and to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of yours?”
10Now it pleased the Lord that Solomon had requested this.
11So God said to him, “Because you have requested this and did not ask for long life or riches for yourself, or the death of your enemies, but you asked discernment for yourself to administer justice,
12I will therefore do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has never been anyone like you before and never will be again.
