1 Kings 3:1-4

1And SolomonH8010 allied himself by marriage with PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and tookH3947 Pharaoh's daughterH1323, and broughtH935 her into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, until he had endedH3615 buildingH1129 his own houseH1004, and the houseH1004 of Jehovah, and the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389 roundH5439 about.

2OnlyH7535, the peopleH5971 sacrificedH2076 on the highH1116 placesH1116; for there was no houseH1004 builtH1129 to the nameH8034 of Jehovah, until those daysH3117.

3And SolomonH8010 lovedH157 Jehovah, walking in the statutesH2708 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1; onlyH7535, he sacrificedH2076 and burned incenseH6999 on the highH1116 placesH1116.

4And the kingH4428 wentH5927 to GibeonH1391 to sacrificeH2076 there; for that was the greatH1419 highH1116 placeH1116: a thousandH505 burnt-offerings did SolomonH8010 offerH5927 up upon that altarH4196.
