1 Kings 3:9-12

Give
<05414> (8804)
therefore thy servant
<05650>
an understanding
<08085> (8802)
heart
<03820>
to judge
<08199> (8800)
thy people
<05971>_,
that I may discern
<0995> (8687)
between good
<02896>
and bad
<07451>_:
for who is able
<03201> (8799)
to judge
<08199> (8800)
this thy so great
<03515>
a people
<05971>_?
{understanding: Heb. hearing}
And the speech
<01697>
pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>
the Lord
<0136>_,
that Solomon
<08010>
had asked
<07592> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_.
And God
<0430>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Because thou hast asked
<07592> (8804)
this thing
<01697>_,
and hast not asked
<07592> (8804)
for thyself long
<07227>
life
<03117>_;
neither hast asked
<07592> (8804)
riches
<06239>
for thyself, nor hast asked
<07592> (8804)
the life
<05315>
of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_;
but hast asked
<07592> (8804)
for thyself understanding
<0995> (8687)
to discern
<08085> (8800)
judgment
<04941>_;
{long life: Heb. many days} {discern: Heb. hear}
Behold, I have done
<06213> (8804)
according to thy words
<01697>_:
lo, I have given
<05414> (8804)
thee a wise
<02450>
and an understanding
<0995> (8737)
heart
<03820>_;
so that there was none like thee before
<06440>
thee, neither after
<0310>
thee shall any arise
<06965> (8799)
like unto thee.
