1 Kings 3:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ And thy servant is in the midst of the people which thou hast chosen, an immense people, which cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.

⁹ Give therefore to thy servant an understanding heart, to judge thy people, and discern between good and evil. For who shall be able to judge this people, thy people which is so numerous?

¹⁰ And the word was pleasing to the Lord that Solomon had asked such a thing.
