Context1:12 you are granted wisdom and discernment. 3 Furthermore I am giving you riches, wealth, and honor surpassing that of any king before or after you.” 4
1 tn Heb “and Solomon son of David strengthened himself over his kingdom.”
2 tn The disjunctive clause (note the vav [ו] + subject pattern) probably has a causal nuance here.
3 tn Heb “wisdom and discernment are given to you.”
4 tn Heb “which was not so for the kings who were before you, and after you there will not be so.”
