1st Kings 3:3-8

³Soothly Solomon loved the Lord, and went in the behests of David, his father, except that Solomon offered in high places and burnt incense. (And Solomon loved the Lord, and followed his father David’s commands, except that Solomon offered sacrifices and burned incense at the hill shrines.)

⁴And so Solomon went into Gibeon, to offer there; for that was the most high place (or for that was the most important, or the most famous, hill shrine). Solomon offered upon that altar in Gibeon a thousand offerings into burnt sacrifice.

⁵Soothly the Lord appeared to Solomon by sleep in the night, and said, Ask thou that, that thou wilt, that I give it to thee.

⁶And Solomon said, Thou hast done great mercy with thy servant David, my father, as he went in thy sight, in truth, and in rightwiseness, and in rightful heart with thee; thou hast kept to him thy great mercy (or thou hast shown him thy great love), and hast given to him a son, sitting on his throne, as it is today.

⁷And now, Lord God, thou hast made thy servant to reign for David, my father; forsooth I am a little child (or but I am like a little child), and not knowing mine out-going and mine in-coming.

⁸And thy servant is in the midst of the people, which thou hast chosen, of a people without number, that may not be numbered and reckoned, for multitude. (And thy servant is in the midst of the people, whom thou hast chosen, of a people without number, who cannot be counted, or reckoned, for their multitude.)
