² That the Lord appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon.

⁵ In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.

¹¹ Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.

¹³ Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:

¹⁴ Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

²³ Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

⁸ Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.

⁵⁸ For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images.

⁵⁹ When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:

⁶⁰ So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed among men;

⁷ And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.
