\v 2 Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, and to the judges, and to every prince in all Israel, the heads of the fathers’ houses.
|
|||
|
|
\v 3 So Solomon and all the assembly with him went to the shrine that was at Gibeon; for there was the tent of meeting of God, which Moses, the servant of Yahweh, had made in the wilderness.
|
|||
|
|
\v 4 But David had brought up the ark of God from Kiriath Jearim to the place that he had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem.
|
|||
|
|
\v 5 In addition, the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, was there before the tabernacle of Yahweh; Solomon and the assembly went to it.

\v 8 Solomon said to God, "You have shown great covenant faithfulness to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
|
|||
|
|
\v 9 Now, Yahweh God, let your promise to David my father be carried out, for you have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth for their numbers.
|
|||
|
|
\v 10 Now give me wisdom and knowledge, so that I may lead this people, for who can judge your people, who are so many in number?”
|
|||
|
|
\v 11 God said to Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and because you have not asked for riches, wealth, or honor, nor for the life of those who hate you, nor for long life for yourself—but because you have asked for wisdom and knowledge for yourself, so that you might rule my people, over whom I have made you king—
|
|||

|
\s5
|
|||

\v 12 Wisdom and knowledge are now given to you; I will also give you riches, wealth, honor, more than any of the kings before you ever had, and more than any after you will have.”
