1 Kings 11:9-11

English Standard Version

The Lord Raises Adversaries

⁹ And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because ^(A)his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, ^(B)who had appeared to him twice ¹⁰ and ^(C)had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods. But he did not keep what the Lord commanded. ¹¹ Therefore the Lord said to Solomon, “Since this has been your practice and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes that I have commanded you, ^(D)I will surely tear the kingdom from you and will give it to your servant.
