Solomon Requests Wisdom
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 1
|
|
###### 1 Now Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the Lord his God _was_ with him and exalted him exceedingly.
|
|
|
|
###### 2 And Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the captains of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to every leader in all Israel, the heads of the fathers' _houses._
|
|
###### 3 Then Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that _was_ at Gibeon; for the tabernacle of meeting with God was there, which Moses the servant of the Lord had made in the wilderness.
|
|
###### 4 But David had brought up the ark of God from Kirjath Jearim to _the place_ David had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it at Jerusalem.
|
|
###### 5 Now the bronze altar that Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, had made, he put before the tabernacle of the Lord; Solomon and the assembly sought Him _there._
|
|
###### 6 And Solomon went up there to the bronze altar before the Lord, which _was_ at the tabernacle of meeting, and offered a thousand burnt offerings on it.
|
|
|
|
###### 7 On that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, "Ask! What shall I give you?"
|
|
|
|
###### 8 And Solomon said to God: "You have shown great mercy to David my father, and have made me king in his place.
|
|
###### 9 Now, O Lord God, let Your promise to David my father be established, for You have made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.
|
|
###### 10 Now give me wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this great people of Yours?"
|
|
|
|
###### 11 Then God said to Solomon: "Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked riches or wealth or honor or the life of your enemies, nor have you asked long life--but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself, that you may judge My people over whom I have made you king--
|
|
###### 12 wisdom and knowledge _are_ granted to you; and I will give you riches and wealth and honor, such as none of the kings have had who _were_ before you, nor shall any after you have the like."Solomon's Military and Economic Power
|
|
|
|
###### 13 So Solomon came to Jerusalem from the high place that _was_ at Gibeon, from before the tabernacle of meeting, and reigned over Israel.
|
|
###### 14 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; he had one thousand four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he stationed in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.
|
|
###### 15 Also the king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedars as abundant as the sycamores which _are_ in the lowland.
|
|
###### 16 And Solomon had horses imported from Egypt and Keveh; the king's merchants bought them in Keveh at the _current_ price.
|
|
###### 17 They also acquired and imported from Egypt a chariot for six hundred _shekels_ of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty; thus, through their agents, they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.
