Wisdom of Solomon 9:7
King James VersionSource notes
“Thou hast chosen me to be a king of thy people, and a judge of thy sons and daughters:”
Context
4Give me wisdom, that sitteth by thy throne; and reject me not from among thy children:
5For I thy servant and son of thine handmaid am a feeble person, and of a short time, and too young for the understanding of judgment and laws.
6For though a man be never so perfect among the children of men, yet if thy wisdom be not with him, he shall be nothing regarded.
7Thou hast chosen me to be a king of thy people, and a judge of thy sons and daughters:
8Thou hast commanded me to build a temple upon thy holy mount, and an altar in the city wherein thou dwellest, a resemblance of the holy tabernacle, which thou hast prepared from the beginning.
9And wisdom was with thee: which knoweth thy works, and was present when thou madest the world, and knew what was acceptable in thy sight, and right in thy commandments.
10O send her out of thy holy heavens, and from the throne of thy glory, that being present she may labour with me, that I may know what is pleasing unto thee.
