5And the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and the Lord said to Solomon, Ask some petition for thyself.

6And Solomon said, Thou hast dealt very mercifully with thy servant David my father according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee, and thou hast kept for him this great mercy, to set his son upon his throne, as it is this day.

— 1 Kings 3:7 —

8But thy servant is in the midst of thy people, whom thou hast chosen, a great people, which cannot be numbered.

9Thou shalt give therefore to thy servant a heart to hear and to judge thy people justly, and to discern between good and evil: for who will be able to judge this thy great people?
