1 Kings 3:3-8

³Solomon showed he loved the Lord by following the instructions of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned offerings on the high places.

⁴The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for it was the leading high place. Solomon presented one thousand burnt offerings on the altar there.

⁵The Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream at Gibeon. God said to him, “Ask what you want me to give you.”

⁶Solomon replied, “You showed your servant David, my father, great trustworthy love because he lived his life before you with faithfulness, doing what was right and committed to principle. You have continued to show this great trustworthy love by giving him a son to sit on his throne to this day.

⁷Now, Lord God, you have made me king in place of my father David. But I am like an inexperienced young boy who doesn't know what to do.

⁸I, your servant, am here in among your chosen people, a great people that are so many they cannot be counted.
