12. I now do as you request. I give you a heart so wise and discerning that there has never been anyone like you until now, nor after you will there be anyone to equal you.
13. In addition, I give you what you have not asked for: I give you such riches and glory that among kings there will be no one like you all your days.
14. And if you walk in my ways, keeping my statutes and commandments, as David your father did, I will give you a long life.
