It took me about 15 minutes to read this passage. When God appeared to Solomon in the dream the new king was asked to make a request of God. Solomon had acted wisely already as king, but he knew that he lacked the experience to lead the people well. So in 3:9 he asked for a heart like David's and the wisdom to lead. That is a prayer that every leader should bring to God's throne.
