2 Chronicles 1:7-10

The Message

⁷ That night God appeared to Solomon. God said, “What do you want from me? Ask.”

^8-10 Solomon answered, “You were extravagantly generous with David my father, and now you have made me king in his place. Establish, God, the words you spoke to my father, for you’ve given me a staggering task, ruling this mob of people. Yes, give me wisdom and knowledge as I come and go among this people—for who on his own is capable of leading these, your glorious people?”
