(NLT) -2 Chronicles 1:10 If God were to grant you one wish in life, what would you ask for? In this verse, Solomon had the opportunity to be selfish and ask for wealth, fame, revenge, anything. Yet he asked for none of those things, instead he asked for wisdom to be a good leader.

God recognized this selfless act and then rewarded Solomon by granting him wealth and fame.
