1 Kings 11:1

Solomon’s Heart Turns from the Lord

1 But ^aKing Solomon loved ^bmany foreign women, as well as the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites—

2 from the nations of whom the Lord had said to the children of Israel, ^a“You shall not intermarry with them, nor they with you. Surely they will turn away your hearts after their gods.” Solomon clung to these in love.

3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives turned away his heart.

4 For it was so, when Solomon was old, ^athat his wives turned his heart after other gods; and his ^bheart was not loyal to the Lord his God, ^cas was the heart of his father David.
