⁷ That night God appeared to Shlomo and said to him, “Tell me what I should give you.” ⁸ Shlomo said to God, “You showed much grace to your servant David my father and have made me king in his place. ⁹ Now, Adonai, God, you have been faithful to your promise to David my father; for you have made me king over a people as numerous as the grains of dust on the earth.
