2 Chronicles 1:10-12

Revised Standard Version

¹⁰ Give me now wisdom and knowledge to go out and come in before this people, for who can rule this thy people, that is so great?” ¹¹ God answered Solomon, “Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked possessions, wealth, honor, or the life of those who hate you, and have not even asked long life, but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself that you may rule my people over whom I have made you king, ¹² wisdom and knowledge are granted to you. I will also give you riches, possessions, and honor, such as none of the kings had who were before you, and none after you shall have the like.”
