And you have kept for him this great and steadfast love and ^ehave given him a son to sit on his throne this day. 7 And now, O Lord my God, ^fyou have made your servant king in place of David my father, ^galthough I am but a little child. I do not know ^hhow to go out or come in. 8 ⁱAnd your servant is in the midst of your people whom you have chosen, a great people, ^jtoo many to be numbered or counted for multitude. 9 ^kGive your servant therefore an understanding mind ^lto govern your people, that I may ^mdiscern between good and evil, for who is able to govern this your great people?”

10 It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this.
