1 Kings 3:12 BBE

¹⁰  Now these words and Solomon's request were pleasing to the Lord.

¹¹  And God said to him, Because your request is for this thing, and not for long life for yourself or for wealth or for the destruction of your haters, but for wisdom to be a judge of causes;

¹²  I have done as you said: I have given you a wise and far-seeing heart, so that there has never been your equal in the past, and never will there be any like you in the future.

¹³  And with this I have given you what you made no request for: wealth and honour, so that no king was ever your equal.

¹⁴  And if you go on in my ways, keeping my laws and my orders as your father David did, I will give you a long life.
