Riveduta Bibbia
la saviezza e l’intelligenza ti sono concesse; e, oltre a questo, ti darò ricchezze, beni e gloria, come non n’ebbero mai re che t’han preceduto, e come non ne avrà mai alcuno dei tuoi successori".
Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
sapienza e scienza ti è data; ed anche ti donerò ricchezze, e facoltà, e gloria, la cui pari i re che sono stati davanti a te non hanno avuta, e non avranno quelli che saranno dopo te.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The verbal differences between this passage and the corresponding one of Kings 1 Kings 3:5-14 are very considerable, and indicate the general truth that the object of the sacred historians is to give a true account of the real bearing of what was said: not ordinarily to furnish us with all or the exact words that were uttered. The most important point omitted in Chronicles, and supplied by Kings, is the conditional promise of long life made to Solomon 1 Kings 3:14; while the chief point absent from Kings, and recorded by our author, is the solemn appeal made by Solomon to the promise of God to David his father 2 Chronicles 1:9, which he now called upon God to “establish,” or to perform.

2 Chronicles 1:12

I will give thee riches, and wealth, and honor - Remark that the writer says nothing of any promise to Solomon of “long life,” which, however, had been mentioned in 2 Chronicles 1:11 among the blessings which he might have been expected to ask. The reason for the omission would seem to lie in the writer’s desire to record only what is good of this great king. Long life was included in the promises made to him; but it was granted conditionally; and Solomon not fulfilling the conditions, it did not take effect (1 Kings 3:14 note).
