9. Now, O LORD GOD, let thy Promise unto David my Father be established: for thou hast made me KING over a People, like the Dust of the Earth in Multitude.
10. Give me now Wisdome and Know∣ledg, that I may go out, and come in be∣fore this People; For who can Judge this thy People, that is so great?
11. And GOD said to Solomon, Because this was in thine Heart, and thou hast not asked Riches, Wealth, or Honour, nor the life of thine Enemies, neither yet hast ask∣ed long Life; but hast asked Wisdom and Knowledg, for thy self, that thou mayest Judge my people, over whom I have made thee KING;
12. Wisdom and Knowledg is granted unto thee; and I will give thee Riches and Wealth, and Honour, such as none of the Kings have had, that have been before thee, neither shall there any after thee have the like.
