Solomon Requests Wisdom From God

4 So the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice, for the great high place [was] there. Solomon used to offer a thousand burnt offerings on that altar. 5 Yahweh appeared to Solomon at Gibeon in a dream at night, and God said, "Ask what I should give to you." 6 Then Solomon said, "You have shown great loyal love with your servant David my father, as he walked before you in faithfulness and in righteousness and in uprightness of heart with you. You have shown for him this great loyal love, and you have given a son to him who is sitting on his throne as [it is] this day.
