6
And Solomon offered there upon the brazen altar before Jehovah which was at the tent of meeting; and he offered up a thousand burnt-offerings upon it.
7
In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, Ask what I shall give thee.
8
And Solomon said to God, Thou hast shewn unto David my father great loving-kindness, and hast made me king in his stead.
9
Now, Jehovah Elohim, let thy word unto David my father be firm; for thou hast made me king over a people numerous as the dust of the earth.
10
Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this thy great people?
