1 Kings 11:4-6
New King James Version
4 For it was so, when Solomon was old, (A)that his wives turned his heart after other gods; and his (B)heart was not [a]loyal to the Lord his God, (C)as was the heart of his father David. 5 For Solomon went after (D)Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after (E)Milcom[b] the abomination of the (F)Ammonites. 6 Solomon did evil in the sight of the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as did his father David.

1 Kings 11:4-6
New International Version
4 As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods,(A) and his heart was not fully devoted(B) to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his father had been. 5 He followed Ashtoreth(C) the goddess of the Sidonians, and Molek(D) the detestable god of the Ammonites. 6 So Solomon did evil(E) in the eyes of the Lord; he did not follow the Lord completely, as David his father had done.
