1 Kings 3:11

1 Kings 3:12
behold, I have done according to your word. Behold, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has been no one like you before you, and after you none will arise like you.

1 Kings 3:13
I have also given you that which you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there will not be any among the kings like you for all your days.

1 Kings 3:14
If you will walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your days.”
