drb 1Kings:11:1-13
drb@1Kings:11:1 @And king Solomon loved many strange women besides the daughter of Pharao, and women of Moab, and of Ammon, and of Edom, and of Sidon, and of the Hethites:
drb@1Kings:11:2 @Of the nations concerning which the Lord said to the children of Israel: You shall not go in unto them, neither shall any of them come in to yours: for they will most certainly turn away your heart to follow their gods. And to these was Solomon joined with a most ardent love.
drb@1Kings:11:3 @And he had seven hundred wives as queens, and three hundred concubines: and the women turned away his heart.
drb@1Kings:11:4 @And when he was now old, his heart was turned away by women to follow strange gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.
drb@1Kings:11:5 @But Solomon worshipped Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Moloch the idol of the ammonites.
drb@1Kings:11:6 @And Solomon did that which was net pleasing before the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as David his father.
drb@1Kings:11:7 @Then Solomon built a temple for Chamos the idol of Moab, on the hill that is over against Jerusalem, and for Moloch the idol of the children of Ammon.
drb@1Kings:11:8 @And he did in this manner for all his wives that were strangers, who burnt incense, and offered sacrifice to their gods.
drb@1Kings:11:9 @And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
drb@1Kings:11:10 @And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not follow strange gods: but he kept not the things which the Lord commanded him.
drb@1Kings:11:11 @The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant
drb@1Kings:11:12 @Nevertheless in thy days I will not do it, for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.
drb@1Kings:11:13 @Neither will I take away the whole kingdom, but I will give one tribe to thy son for the sake of David my servant, and Jerusalem which I have chosen.
