1 Kings 3:11-13

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹¹ God replied, “You’ve asked for this and not for a long life, or riches for yourself, or the death of your enemies. Instead, you’ve asked for understanding so that you can do what is right. ¹² So I’m going to do what you’ve asked. I’m giving you a wise and understanding heart so that there will never be anyone like you. ¹³ I’m also giving you what you haven’t asked for—riches and honor—so that no other king will be like you as long as you live.
