1 Kings 3:7-13

7And now, O Lord my God, ayou have made your servant king in place of David my father, balthough I am but a little child. I do not know chow to go out or come in. 8 dAnd your servant is in the midst of your people whom you have chosen, a great people, etoo many to be numbered or counted for multitude. 9 fGive your servant therefore an understanding mind gto govern your people, that I may hdiscern between good and evil, for who is able to govern this your great people?”

10It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. 11And God said to him, “Because you have asked this, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches or the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern what is right, 12behold, iI now do according to your word. Behold, jI give you a wise and discerning mind, so that none like you has been before you and none like you shall arise after you. 13 kI give you also what you have not asked, lboth riches and honor, so that no other king shall compare with you, all your days.

Job 22:27-28

27You will mmake your prayer to him, and he will hear you,
and you will npay your vows.
 28You will decide on a matter, and it will be established for you,
and olight will shine on your ways.

Psalms 21:4

4He asked life of you; you pgave it to him,
qlength of days forever and ever.

Psalms 65:2

2O you who rhear prayer,

Psalms 66:19-20

19But truly tGod has listened;

 20 Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me!

Psalms 116:1-2

 2Because he winclined his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
