1 Kings 3:4-15

3:4

And the king
<04428>

went
<03212> (8799)

to Gibeon
<01391>

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

there; for that
<01931>

[was] the great
<01419>

high place
<01116>_:

a thousand
<0505>

burnt offerings
<05930>

did Solomon
<08010>

offer
<05927> (8686)

upon that altar
<04196>_.

3:5

In Gibeon
<01391>

the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8738)

to Solomon
<08010>

in a dream
<02472>

by night
<03915>_:

and God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Ask
<07592> (8798)

what I shall give
<05414> (8799)

thee.

3:6

And Solomon
<08010>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)

unto thy servant
<05650>

David
<01732>

my father
<01>

great
<01419>

mercy
<02617>_,

according as he walked
<01980> (8804)

before
<06440>

thee in truth
<0571>_,

and in righteousness
<06666>_,

and in uprightness
<03483>

of heart
<03824>

with thee; and thou hast kept
<08104> (8799)

for him this great
<01419>

kindness
<02617>_,

that thou hast given
<05414> (8799)

him a son
<01121>

to sit
<03427> (8802)

on his throne
<03678>_,

as [it is] this day
<03117>_.

{mercy: or, bounty}

3:7

And now, O LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_,

thou hast made thy servant
<05650>

king
<04427> (8689)

instead of David
<01732>

my father
<01>_:

and I [am but] a little
<06996>

child
<05288>_:

I know
<03045> (8799)

not [how] to go out
<03318> (8800)

or come in
<0935> (8800)_.

3:8

And thy servant
<05650>

[is] in the midst
<08432>

of thy people
<05971>

which thou hast chosen
<0977> (8804)_,

a great
<07227>

people
<05971>_,

that cannot be numbered
<04487> (8735)

nor counted
<05608> (8735)

for multitude
<07230>_.

3:9

Give
<05414> (8804)

therefore thy servant
<05650>

an understanding
<08085> (8802)

heart
<03820>

to judge
<08199> (8800)

thy people
<05971>_,

that I may discern
<0995> (8687)

between good
<02896>

and bad
<07451>_:

for who is able
<03201> (8799)

to judge
<08199> (8800)

this thy so great
<03515>

a people
<05971>_?

{understanding: Heb. hearing}

3:10

And the speech
<01697>

pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>

the Lord
<0136>_,

that Solomon
<08010>

had asked
<07592> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_.

3:11

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Because thou hast asked
<07592> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_,

and hast not asked
<07592> (8804)

for thyself long
<07227>

life
<03117>_;

neither hast asked
<07592> (8804)

riches
<06239>

for thyself, nor hast asked
<07592> (8804)

the life
<05315>

of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_;

but hast asked
<07592> (8804)

for thyself understanding
<0995> (8687)

to discern
<08085> (8800)

judgment
<04941>_;

{long life: Heb. many days} {discern: Heb. hear}

3:12

Behold, I have done
<06213> (8804)

according to thy words
<01697>_:

lo, I have given
<05414> (8804)

thee a wise
<02450>

and an understanding
<0995> (8737)

heart
<03820>_;

so that there was none like thee before
<06440>

thee, neither after
<0310>

thee shall any arise
<06965> (8799)

like unto thee.

3:13

And I have also given
<05414> (8804)

thee that which thou hast not asked
<07592> (8804)_,

both riches
<06239>_,

and honour
<03519>_:

so that there shall not be any
<0376>

among the kings
<04428>

like unto thee all thy days
<03117>_.

{shall...: or, hath not been}

3:14

And if thou wilt walk
<03212> (8799)

in my ways
<01870>_,

to keep
<08104> (8800)

my statutes
<02706>

and my commandments
<04687>_,

as thy father
<01>

David
<01732>

did walk
<01980> (8804)_,

then I will lengthen
<0748> (8689)

thy days
<03117>_.

3:15

And Solomon
<08010>

awoke
<03364> (8799)_;

and, behold, [it was] a dream
<02472>_.

<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and offered up
<05927> (8686)

burnt offerings
<05930>_,

and offered
<06213> (8799)

peace offerings
<08002>_,

and made
<06213> (8799)

a feast
<04960>

to all his servants
<05650>_.

<08010>

made affinity
<02859> (8691)

with Pharaoh
<06547>

king

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Pharaoh's
<06547>

daughter
<01323>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

her into the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_,

until he had made an end
<03615> (8763)

of building
<01129> (8800)

his own house
<01004>_,

and the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

<03389>

round about
<05439>_.

<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Jehu
<03058>

the son

against Baasha

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

1 Kings 21:29

21:29

Seest
<07200> (8804)

thou how Ahab
<0256>

humbleth
<03665> (8738)

himself before
<06440>

me? because
<03282>

he humbleth
<03665> (8738)

himself before
<06440>

me, I will not bring
<0935> (8686)

the evil
<07451>

in his days
<03117>_:

[but] in his son's
<01121>

days
<03117>

will I bring
<0935> (8686)

the evil
<07451>

upon his house
<01004>_.
