2 Chronicles 1:7-12
7In that nightH3915 1GodH430 appearedH7200 to SolomonH8010, and saidH559 to him, AskH7592 what I shall giveH5414 thee.
8And SolomonH8010 saidH559 to 2GodH430, Thou hast shewn unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1 greatH1419 loving-kindness, and hast madeH6213 me kingH4427 in his stead.
9NowH6258, Jehovah Elohim, let thy wordH1697 unto DavidH1732 my fatherH1 be firmH539; for thou hast made me kingH4427 over a peopleH5971 numerousH7227 as the dustH6083 of the earthH776.
10GiveH5414 me nowH6258 wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093, that I may goH3318 out and comeH935 in before this peopleH5971; for who can judgeH8199 this thy greatH1419 peopleH5971?
11And 3GodH430 saidH559 to SolomonH8010, Because this wasH1961 in thy heartH3824, and thou hast not askedH7592 richesH6239, wealthH6239, or honour, nor the lifeH5315 of them that hateH8130 thee, neither yet hast askedH7592 long lifeH5315; but hast askedH7592 for thyself wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093, that thou mayest judgeH8199 my peopleH5971, over whom I have made thee kingH4427:
12wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH4093 are granted unto thee; and I will giveH5414 thee richesH6239 and wealthH6239 and honour, such as none of the kingsH4428 have had that have beenH1961 before thee, neither shall any after thee have the like.
