1 Kings 3:12

Solomon Requests Wisdom From God

I'm giving you a wise and discerning mind, so that there will have been no one like you before you and no one will arise after you like you. ¹³ I'm also giving you what you haven't requested: both riches and honor, so that no other king will be comparable to you during your lifetime.
