1 Kings 3:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

3 And Solomon made an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt and took Pharaoh’s daughter and brought her into the City of David until he had finished building his own house and the house of the Lord, and the wall around Jerusalem.

² But the people sacrificed [to God] in the high places [as the heathen did to their idols], for there was no house yet built to the ^[a]Name of the Lord.

³ Solomon loved the Lord, walking [at first] in the statutes and practices of David his father, only he sacrificed and burned incense in the high places.
