2 Chronicles 1:8-10

Good News Translation

⁸ Solomon answered, “You always showed great love for my father David, and now you have let me succeed him as king. ^9 (A)O Lord God, fulfill the promise you made to my father. You have made me king over a people who are so many that they cannot be counted, ¹⁰ so give me the wisdom and knowledge I need to rule over them. Otherwise, how would I ever be able to rule this great people of yours?”
