1 Kings 3:7-9

7Now, O Lord my God, 1You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, yet 2I am but a little child; 3I do not know how to go out or come in. 84Your servant is in the midst of Your people which You have chosen, 5a great people who are too many to be numbered or counted. 9So 6give Your servant 7an understanding heart to judge Your people 8to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this 9great people of Yours?”
