1 Kings 3:9-12
9“So agive Your servant ▼▼ Lit a hearing
an understanding heart to judge Your people cto discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this ▼▼ Lit heavy
great people of Yours?” God’s Answer
10 ▼▼ Lit the thing
It was pleasing in the sight of the Lord that Solomon had asked this thing. 11God said to him, “Because you have asked this thing and have fnot asked for yourself ▼▼ Lit many days
long life, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have you asked for the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself ▼▼ Lit hearing
discernment to understand justice, 12behold, iI have done according to your words. Behold, jI have given you a wise and discerning heart, so that there has been no one like you before you, nor shall one like you arise after you.
