2 Chronicles 1:8 in Context — 2 Chronicles 1
6 Subió pues Salomón allá delante de Jehová, al altar de bronce que estaba en el tabernáculo del testimonio, y ofreció sobre él mil holocaustos.
7 Y aquella noche apareció Dios á Salomón, y díjole: Demanda lo [que quisieres] que yo te dé.
8 Y Salomón dijo á Dios: Tú has hecho con David mi padre grande misericordia, y á mí me has puesto por rey en lugar suyo.
9 Confírmese pues ahora, oh Jehová Dios, tu palabra [dada] á David mi padre; porque tú me has puesto por rey sobre un pueblo en muchedumbre como el polvo de la tierra.
10 Dame ahora sabiduría y ciencia, para salir y entrar delante de este pueblo: porque ¿quién podrá juzgar este tu pueblo tan grande?
