    7 Now, Yahweh my God, you have made your servant king instead of David my father. I am but a little child. I don't know how to go out or come in.

    8 Your servant is in the midst of your people which you have chosen, a great people, that can't be numbered nor counted for multitude.

    10 The speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

    11 God said to him, "Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life, neither have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice;

    12 behold, I have done according to your word. Behold, I have given you a wise and an understanding heart; so that there has been none like you before you, neither after you shall any arise like you.

    13 I have also given you that which you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there shall not be any among the kings like you, all your days.

    14 If you will walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your days."
