   3 And Solomon, and all the assembly with him, went to the high place that was at Gibeon; for the tent of meeting of God, which Moses the servant of the LORD had made in the wilderness, was there.

7. 7 In that night did God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee.

   7 In that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, "Ask what I shall give you."

8. 8 And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast showed great lovingkindness unto David my father, and hast made me king in his stead.

   8 And Solomon said to God, "Thou hast shown great and steadfast love to David my father, and hast made me king in his stead.

9. 9 Now, O Jehovah God, let thy promise unto David my father be established; for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.

   9 O LORD God, let thy promise to David my father be now fulfilled, for thou hast made me king over a people as many as the dust of the earth.

10. 10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people; for who can judge this thy people, that is so great?

    10 Give me now wisdom and knowledge to go out and come in before this people, for who can rule this thy people, that is so great?"

11. 11 And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honor, nor the life of them that hate thee, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king:

    11 God answered Solomon, "Because this was in your heart, and you have not asked possessions, wealth, honor, or the life of those who hate you, and have not even asked long life, but have asked wisdom and knowledge for yourself that you may rule my people over whom I have made you king,

12. 12 wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee; and I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honor, such as none of the kings have had that have been before thee; neither shall there any after thee have the like.

    12 wisdom and knowledge are granted to you. I will also give you riches, possessions, and honor, such as none of the kings had who were before you, and none after you shall have the like."

13. 13 So Solomon came from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tent of meeting, unto Jerusalem; and he reigned over Israel.

    14 Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen; he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he stationed in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.

15. 15 And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore-trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.

    15 And the king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stone, and he made cedar as plentiful as the sycamore of the Shephelah.

16. 16 And the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt; the kings merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price.

    16 And Solomons import of horses was from Egypt and Kue, and the kings traders received them from Kue for a price.

17. 17 And they fetched up and brought out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred (shekels) of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means.

    17 They imported a chariot from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; likewise through them these were exported to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.
