Moreover, I will give you what you did not request—both riches and honor—so that during all your days no man in any kingdom will be your equal.
1 Kings 3:13, Berean Standard Bible

God is speaking to Solomon in a dream at Gibeon, answering the young king's request for a discerning heart rather than long life, wealth or vengeance on his enemies. Because Solomon asked for wisdom to govern, God grants it and adds what he did not ask for: riches and honor, with a promise that no king would equal him in his lifetime.
