And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 6 is found in chapter 11 of 1 Kings. Solomon loves many foreign women and eventually follows their gods. The text directly connects his marriages with the turning away of his heart. Unlike the request for wisdom in 3:9, the king’s heart is now no longer fully directed toward the Lord. Idolatry does not appear as a sudden change, but as the result of relationships and practices that progressively alter the ruler’s faithfulness.

Und Salomo tat, was dem HERRN übel gefiel, und folgte nicht gänzlich dem HERRN wie sein Vater David.
E hizo Salomón lo malo en los ojos de Jehová, y no fue cumplidamente tras Jehová como David su padre.
Salomón hizo lo malo ante los ojos de Jehová y no siguió plenamente a Jehová como su padre David.
Et Salomon fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de l'Eternel, et il ne suivit point pleinement l'Eternel, comme David, son père.
Così Salomone fece ciò che dispiace al Signore; e non seguitò il Signore appieno, come avea fatto Davide, suo padre.
Assim fez Salomão o que parecia mal aos olhos do SENHOR; e não perseverou em seguir ao SENHOR, como Davi, seu pai.
所羅門 行耶和華眼中看為惡的事,不像他父親 大衛 專心順從耶和華。
