And now, Lord my God, You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, yet I am like a little boy; I do not know how to go out or come in.

And Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people who are too many to be numbered or counted.

So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, to discern between good and evil. For who is capable of judging this great people of Yours?”

Now it was pleasing in the sight of the Lord that Solomon had asked this thing.

And God said to him, “Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself a long life, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have you asked for the lives of your enemies, but have asked for yourself discernment to understand justice,

behold, I have done according to your words. Behold, I have given you a wise and discerning heart, so that there has been no one like you before you, nor shall one like you arise after you.

I have also given you what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there will not be any among the kings like you all your days.

나의 하나님 여호와여 주께서 종으로 종의 아버지 다윗을 대신하여 왕이 되게 하셨사오나 종은 작은 아이라 출입할 줄을 알지 못하고

And now, Lord my God, You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, yet I am like a little boy; I do not know how to go out or come in.

주께서 택하신 백성 가운데 있나이다 그들은 큰 백성이라 수효가 많아서 셀 수도 없고 기록할 수도 없사오니

And Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people who are too many to be numbered or counted.

누가 주의 이 많은 백성을 재판할 수 있사오리이까 듣는 마음을 종에게 주사 주의 백성을 재판하여 선악을 분별하게 하옵소서

So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, to discern between good and evil. For who is capable of judging this great people of Yours?”

솔로몬이 이것을 구하매 그 말씀이 주의 마음에 든지라

Now it was pleasing in the sight of the Lord that Solomon had asked this thing.

이에 하나님이 그에게 이르시되 네가 이것을 구하도다 자기를 위하여 장수하기를 구하지 아니하며 부도 구하지 아니하며 자기 원수의 생명을 멸하기도 구하지 아니하고 오직 송사를 듣고 분별하는 지혜를 구하였으니

And God said to him, “Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself a long life, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have you asked for the lives of your enemies, but have asked for yourself discernment to understand justice,

내가 네 말대로 하여 네게 지혜롭고 총명한 마음을 주노니 네 앞에도 너와 같은 자가 없었거니와 네 뒤에도 너와 같은 자가 일어남이 없으리라

behold, I have done according to your words. Behold, I have given you a wise and discerning heart, so that there has been no one like you before you, nor shall one like you arise after you.

내가 또 네가 구하지 아니한 부귀와 영광도 네게 주노니 네 평생에 왕들 중에 너와 같은 자가 없을 것이라

I have also given you what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there will not be any among the kings like you all your days.
