In the book of 1 Kings, chapter three, Solomon married the daughter of an Egyptian Pharaoh. Then, he finished building his house, so he could offer sacrifices in the name of the Lord.
One night, the Lord appeared to Solomon in his dream. He asked Solomon what he wishes the Lord to give him.
Solomon was humbled by the request. He stated how much the Lord had given his father, David, and shown him His great love. He asked God for great wisdom and an understanding mind to govern the Lord's people.
God was pleased by this request. Solomon didn't ask for riches, so God gave him both riches and great wisdom.
