2 Chronicles 1:8 in Context — 2 Chronicles 1

6 Subiu, pois, Salomão ali diante do SENHOR, ao altar de bronze que estava no tabernáculo do testemunho, e ofereceu sobre ele mil holocaustos.

7 E aquela noite apareceu Deus a Salomão, e disse-lhe: Pede o que queres que eu te dê.

8 E Salomão disse a Deus: Tu fizeste com Davi meu pai grande misericórdia, e a mim me puseste por rei em seu lugar.

9 Confirme-se, pois, agora, ó SENHOR Deus, tua palavra dada a Davi meu pai; porque tu me puseste por rei sobre um povo em multidão como o pó da terra.

10 Dá-me agora sabedoria e conhecimento, para sair e entrar diante deste povo: porque quem poderá julgar este teu povo tão grande?
