In context

10Now it pleased the Lord that Solomon had made this request.

11So God said to him, “Since you have asked for this instead of requesting long life or wealth for yourself or death for your enemies—but you have asked for discernment to administer justice—

12Behold, I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there will never have been another like you, nor will there ever be.

13Moreover, I will give you what you did not request—both riches and honor—so that during all your days no man in any kingdom will be your equal.

14So if you walk in My ways and keep My statutes and commandments, just as your father David did, I will prolong your days.”
