1 Kings 3:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ “And now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king instead of David, my father. And I am but a young child and do not know how to go out and in.

⁸ “And Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people, who cannot be told nor numbered for multitude.

⁹ “Give, therefore, to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, so that I may discern between good and bad. For who is able to judge this, Your mighty people?”
