Solomon asks the LORD for wisdom at Gibeon
At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream and invited him to ask for what he desired. Solomon asked for a discerning heart to govern Israel, and God also promised riches and honor because the request pleased Him (1 Kings 3:1-15).

1Later, Solomon formed an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt by marrying his daughter. Solomon brought her to the City of David until he had finished building his palace and the house of the LORD, as well as the wall around Jerusalem. 2The people, however, were still sacrificing on the high places because a house for the Name of the LORD had not yet been built. 3And Solomon loved the LORD and walked in the statutes of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
