Solomon's Rule Consolidated
-
|1 Reis 3:1| Now Solomon became a son-in-law to Pharaoh king of Egypt[and formed an alliance] by1 taking Pharaoh's daughter[in marriage] . He brought her to the2 City of David[where she remained temporarily] until he had finished building his own house (palace) and the house of the LORD and the wall around Jerusalem.
-
|1 Reis 3:2| But[in the meantime] the people were still sacrificing[to God] on the high places (hilltops)[as the pagans did to their idols] , for there was no[permanent] house yet built for the3 Name of the LORD.
-
|1 Reis 3:3| Now Solomon loved the LORD, walking[at first] in the statutes of David his father, except[for the fact that] he sacrificed and burned incense in the high places[ignoring the law that required all sacrifices to be offered at the tabernacle] .
-
|1 Reis 3:4| The king went to Gibeon[near Jerusalem, where the tabernacle and the bronze altar stood] to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
-
|1 Reis 3:5| In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream at night; and God said, "Ask[Me] what I shall give you."

Solomon's Prayer
-
|1 Reis 3:6| Then Solomon said, "You have shown Your servant David my father great lovingkindness, because he walked before You in faithfulness and righteousness and with uprightness of heart toward You; and You have kept for him this great lovingkindness, in that You have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is today.
-
|1 Reis 3:7| So now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king in place of David my father; and as for me, I am but a little boy[4 in wisdom and experience] ; I do not know how to go out or come in[that is, how to conduct business as a king] .
-
|1 Reis 3:8| Your servant is among Your people whom You have chosen, a great people who are too many to be numbered or counted.
-
|1 Reis 3:9| So give Your servant an understanding mind and a hearing heart[with which] to judge Your people, so that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge and rule this great people of Yours?"
