- God said to Solomon, "Since this is your heart's desire and you have not asked for wealth, riches or honor, nor for the death of your enemies, and since you have not asked for a long life but for wisdom and knowledge to govern my people over whom I have made you king,
- therefore wisdom and knowledge will be given you. And I will also give you wealth, riches and honor, such as no king who was before you ever had and none after you will have."
- Then Solomon went to Jerusalem from the high place at Gibeon, from before the Tent of Meeting. And he reigned over Israel.
- Solomon accumulated chariots and horses; he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horses, which he kept in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem.
- The king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar as plentiful as sycamore-fig trees in the foothills.

- 神对所罗门说,我已立你作我民的王。你既有这心意,并不求资财,丰富,尊荣,也不求灭绝那恨你之人的性命,又不求大寿数,只求智慧聪明好判断我的民。
- 我必赐你智慧聪明,也必赐你资财,丰富,尊荣。在你以前的列王都没有这样,在你以后也必没有这样的。
- 于是,所罗门从基遍邱坛会幕前回到耶路撒冷,治理以色列人。
- 所罗门聚集战车马兵,有战车一千四百辆,马兵一万二千名,安置在屯车的城邑和耶路撒冷,就是王那里。
- 王在耶路撒冷使金银多如石头,香柏木多如高原的桑树。
