How do you measure "Greatness"? Do you include "the King of kings"?
Jesus, as the King of kings (capitalisation correct) is the greatest (was and still is).
Some have suggested Solomon. He was great and wise. Wealthy? He would have made Bill Gates look like a poor man. Wise? The wisest ever. However he forgot his God who put him where he was. Still I think he comes second.

Since you said "lived" (pass tense) I would say king David. He was a King and yet so humble.
The greatest King who lives to this day is "Jesus"

King Louis XIV of France, "The sunlight King", his long wonderful reign of seventy two years (the longest ever in history) made France the finest international potential, prevailing all important wars, construction the awe-inspiring Palace of Versailles, and allowing arts and literature to flourish throughout Europe with the aid of patronising and preserving large artists as Molière, Racine or la Fontaine

Of all the kings who have ever been proven to live, I would say Ashoka of India.
Or perhaps Ivan the Terrible before he went completely bonkers.
Either or.
