11GodH430 saidH559 to him, “BecauseH3282H834 you have askedH7592 thisH2088 thingH1697 and have 1not askedH7592 for yourself 2longH7227 lifeH3117, norH3808 have askedH7592 richesH6239 for yourself, norH3808 have you askedH7592 for the lifeH5315 of your enemiesH340, but have askedH7592 for yourself 3discernmentH995 to understandH8085 justiceH4941,

12beholdH2009, 4I have doneH6213 according to your wordsH1697. BeholdH2009, 5I have givenH5414 you a wiseH2450 and discerningH995 heartH3820, soH834 that there has beenH1961 noH3808 one likeH3644 you beforeH6440 you, norH3808 shall one likeH3644 you ariseH6965 afterH310 you.

136I have alsoH1571 givenH5414 you whatH834 you have not askedH7592, bothH1571 7richesH6239 and honorH3519, soH834 that there will not be anyH376 among the kingsH4428 likeH3644 you allH3605 your daysH3117.
