So give Your servant an understanding mind and a hearing heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and bad. For who is able to judge and rule this Your great people? [James 1:5.]

Behold, I have done as you asked. I have given you a wise, discerning mind, so that no one before you was your equal, nor shall any arise after you equal to you.

God said to him, Because you have asked this and have not asked for long life or for riches, nor for the lives of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to recognize what is just and right

I have also given you what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there shall not be any among the kings equal to you all your days.

And if you will go My way, keep My statutes and My commandments as your father David did, then I will lengthen your days.

In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night. And God said, Ask what I shall give you.

Now, O Lord my God, You have made Your servant king instead of David my father, and I am but a lad [in wisdom and experience]; I know not how to go out (begin) or come in (finish).

It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this.

Solomon said, You have shown to Your servant David my father great mercy and loving-kindness, according as he walked before You in faithfulness, righteousness, and uprightness of heart with You; and You have kept for him this great kindness and steadfast love, that You have given him a son to sit on his throne this day.

Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people who cannot be counted for multitude.
