1 Kings 11:3-5
New American Standard Bible
3 (A)He had seven hundred wives, who were [a]princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives turned his heart away. 4 For when Solomon was old, his wives turned his heart away [b]to follow other gods; and (B)his heart was not [c]wholly devoted to the Lord his God, as the heart of his father David had been. 5 For Solomon became a follower of (C)Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and of [d](D)Milcom the abhorrent idol of the Ammonites.
