1 Kings 3:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ Now, O Lord my God, ^(A)You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, yet ^(B)I am but a little child; ^(C)I do not know how to go out or come in. ^8 (D)Your servant is in the midst of Your people which You have chosen, ^(E)a great people who are too many to be numbered or counted. ⁹ So ^(F)give Your servant ^[a]an understanding heart to judge Your people ^(G)to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this ^[b]great people of Yours?”
