And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.

      11:002:042 And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD, and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any whither, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me, The word that I have heard is good.

      11:002:043 Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD, and the commandment that I have charged thee with?

      11:002:044 The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the LORD shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head;

      11:002:045 And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.

      11:002:046 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.

      11:003:001 And Solomon made affinity with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the city of David, until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.

      11:003:002 Only the people sacrificed in high places, because there was no house built unto the name of the LORD, until those days.

      11:003:003 And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.

      11:003:004 And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.

      11:003:005 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.

      11:003:006 And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.

      11:003:007 And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in.

      11:003:008 And thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.

      11:003:009 Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?

      11:003:010 And the speech pleased the LORD, that Solomon had asked this thing.

      11:003:011 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;

      11:003:012 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.

      11:003:013 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.

      11:003:014 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.

      11:003:015 And Solomon awoke; and, behold, it was a dream. And he came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and offered up burnt offerings, and offered peace offerings, and made a feast to all his servants.

      11:003:016 Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him.

      11:003:017 And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.

      11:003:018 And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also: and we were together; there was no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house.

      11:003:019 And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.

      11:003:020 And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.

      11:003:021 And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear.

      11:003:022 And the other woman said, Nay; but the living is my son, and the dead is thy son. And this said, No; but the dead is thy son, and the living is my son. Thus they spake before the king.

      11:003:023 Then said the king, The one saith, This is my son that liveth, and thy son is the dead: and the other saith, Nay; but thy son is the dead, and my son is the living.

      11:003:024 And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.

      11:003:025 And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.

      11:003:026 Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it.

      11:003:027 Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.

      11:003:028 And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king: for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to do judgment.

      11:004:001 So king Solomon was king over all Israel.

      11:004:002 And these were the princes which he had; Azariah the son of Zadok the priest,

      11:004:003 Elihoreph and Ahiah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder.

      11:004:004 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the host: and Zadok and Abiathar were the priests:

      11:004:005 And Azariah the son of Nathan was over the officers: and Zabud the son of Nathan was principal officer, and the king's friend:

      11:004:006 And Ahishar was over the household: and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the tribute.

      11:004:007 And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, which provided victuals for the king and his household: each man his month in a year made provision.

      11:004:008 And these are their names: The son of Hur, in mount Ephraim:

      11:004:009 The son of Dekar, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Bethshemesh, and Elonbethhanan:

      11:004:010 The son of Hesed, in Aruboth; to him pertained Sochoh, and all the land of Hepher:

      11:004:011 The son of Abinadab, in all the region of Dor; which had Taphath the daughter of Solomon to wife:

      11:004:012 Baana the son of Ahilud; to him pertained Taanach and Megiddo, and all Bethshean, which is by Zartanah beneath Jezreel, from Bethshean to Abelmeholah, even unto the place that is beyond Jokneam:

      11:004:013 The son of Geber, in Ramothgilead; to him pertained the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; to him also pertained the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brasen bars:

      11:004:014 Ahinadab the son of Iddo had Mahanaim:

      11:004:015 Ahimaaz was in Naphtali; he also took Basmath the daughter of Solomon to wife:

      11:004:016 Baanah the son of Hushai was in Asher and in Aloth:

      11:004:017 Jehoshaphat the son of Paruah, in Issachar:

      11:004:018 Shimei the son of Elah, in Benjamin:

      11:004:019 Geber the son of Uri was in the country of Gilead, in the country of Sihon king of the Amorites, and of Og king of Bashan;
