2 Chronicles 1:7-12
7In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give thee. 8And Solomon said to God, Thou hast shown great mercy to David my father, and hast made me to reign in his stead. 9Now, O LORD God, let thy promise to David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.1 10Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy great people? 11And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thy enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: 12Wisdom and knowledge are granted to thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honour, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.
