1 Kings 3:11-13

Modern English Version

¹¹ God said to him, “Because you have asked this and have not asked for yourself long life or riches or the lives of your enemies, but have asked for yourself wisdom so that you may have discernment in judging, ¹² I now do according to your words. I have given you a wise and an understanding heart, so that there has never been anyone like you in the past, and there shall never arise another like you. ¹³ I have also given you what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that no kings will compare to you all of your days.
