Solomon Requests Wisdom
1 Solomon the son of David established himself in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him and made him exceedingly great.[a]
2 Solomon spoke to all Israel, to the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, to the judges, and to all the leaders in all Israel, the heads of fathers’ houses. 3 And Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the Lord had made in the wilderness, was there.
