1 Kings 3:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

Solomon Requests Wisdom from God^(A)

⁴ King Solomon went to Gibeon to sacrifice because it was the most important place of worship. Solomon sacrificed 1,000 burnt offerings on that altar.

⁵ In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream at night. He said, “What can I give you?”

⁶ Solomon responded, “You’ve shown great love to my father David, who was your servant. He lived in your presence with truth, righteousness, and commitment. And you continued to show him your great love by giving him a son to sit on his throne today.
