1 Kings 11:1-8

Geneva(i) 1 Bvt King Salomon loued many outlandish women: both the daughter of Pharaoh, and the women of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Zidon and Heth, 2 Of the nations, whereof the Lord had sayd vnto the children of Israel, Goe not ye in to them, nor let them come in to you: for surely they will turne your hearts after their gods, to them, I say, did Salomon ioyne in loue. 3 And he had seuen hundreth wiues, that were princesses, and three hundreth concubines, and his wiues turned away his heart. 4 For when Salomon was olde, his wiues turned his heart after other gods, so that his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of Dauid his father. 5 For Salomon followed Ashtaroth the god of the Zidonians, and Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites. 6 So Salomon wrought wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, but continued not to follow the Lord, as did Dauid his father. 7 Then did Salomon build an hie place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, in the mountaine that is ouer against Ierusalem, and vnto Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon. 8 And so did he for all his outlandish wiues, which burnt incense and offered vnto their gods.
