You have continued this great kindness to him by giving him a son to sit on his throne this day." 7 Now, LORD my God, you have made your servant king in place of my father David, but I am only a young and inexperienced servant who does not know how to carry out his duties. 8 Your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or record. 9 So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between good and evil, for who is able to govern this great people of yours?
