Solomon Requests Wisdom From God

¹³ I will also give you what you did not ask for. All your life you will have wealth and honor, more than that of any other king. ¹⁴ If you walk in My ways, keeping My statutes and commandments, as your father David walked, then I will prolong your days.” ¹⁵ Solomon woke up and was aware that God had spoken to him in the dream. Then he went to Jerusalem and stood in front of Jehovah's Ark of the Covenant. He offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to Jehovah. Then he gave a feast for all his officials.
