2 Chronicles 1:8-10

Living Bible

⁸ Solomon replied, “O God, you have been so kind and good to my father David, and now you have given me the kingdom— ⁹ this is all I want! For you have fulfilled your promise to David my father and have made me king over a nation as full of people as the earth is full of dust! ¹⁰ Now give me wisdom and knowledge to rule them properly, for who is able to govern by himself such a great nation as this one of yours?”
