7Then doth Solomon build a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, in the hill that [is] on the front of Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the sons of Ammon;
8and so he hath done for all his strange women, who are perfuming and sacrificing to their gods.
9And Jehovah sheweth Himself angry with Solomon, for his heart hath turned aside from Jehovah, God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice,
10and given a charge unto him concerning this thing, not to go after other gods; and he hath not kept that which Jehovah commanded,
11and Jehovah saith to Solomon, `Because that this hath been with thee, and thou hast not kept My covenant and My statutes that I charged upon thee, I surely rend the kingdom from thee, and have given it to thy servant.
12`Only, in thy days I do it not, for the sake of David thy father; out of the hand of thy son I rend it;
13only all the kingdom I do not rend away; one tribe I give to thy son, for the sake of David My servant, and for the sake of Jerusalem, that I have chosen.`
