1 Kings 3:1-2

Easy-to-Read Version

Solomon Asks for Wisdom

3 Solomon made a peace treaty with Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, by marrying his daughter. Solomon brought her to the City of David. This was when Solomon was still building his palace, the Temple of the Lord, and the wall around Jerusalem. ² The Temple to honor the Lord had not yet been finished, so people were still making animal sacrifices on altars at the high places.
