1 Kings 11:7-10

7Then Solomon built an illegal worship site on the hill east of Jerusalem for Chemosh (the disgusting idol of Moab) and for Molech (the disgusting idol of the Ammonites).

8He did these things for each of his foreign wives who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.

9So the Lord became angry with Solomon because his heart had turned from the Lord God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice.

10God had given him commands about this. ⌞He told him⌟ not to follow other gods. But Solomon did not obey God’s command.
