David : 2 Samuel 11
25 David
said to the messenger, “Tell Yo’av, ‘Don’t let this matter get you down
— the sword devours in one way or another. Intensify your battle
against the city, and overthrow it.’ And encourage him.”
26 When the wife of Uriyah heard that Uriyah her husband was dead, she mourned her husband. 27 When the mourning was over, David sent and took her home to his palace, and she became his wife and bore him a son.
But Adonai saw what David had done as evil.
Solomon 1 Kings 11
11
King Solomon loved many foreign women along with the daughter of Pharaoh: Moabite, Ammonite, Edomite, Sidonian, and Hittite women,
2from the nations concerning which the
Lord had said to the Israelites, ‘You shall not enter into marriage with them, neither shall they with you; for they will surely incline your heart to follow their gods;’ Solomon clung to these in love.
3Among his wives were seven hundred princesses and three hundred concubines; and his wives turned away his heart.
4For when Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not true to the
Lord his God, as was the heart of his father David.
5For Solomon followed Astarte the goddess of the Sidonians, and Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6So Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the
Lord, and did not completely follow the
Lord, as his father David had done.
7Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, and for Molech the abomination of the Ammonites, on the mountain east of Jerusalem.
8He did the same for all his foreign wives, who offered incense and sacrificed to their gods.
9 Then the
Lord was angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned away from the
Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
10and had commanded him concerning this matter, that he should not follow other gods; but he did not observe what the
Lord commanded.
11Therefore the
Lord said to Solomon, ‘Since this has been your mind and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes that I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you and give it to your servant.
12Yet for the sake of your father David I will not do it in your lifetime; I will tear it out of the hand of your son.
13I will not, however, tear away the entire kingdom; I will give one tribe to your son, for the sake of my servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.’
2 Chronicles
11 Moreover, he built high places in the hills of Y’hudah, caused the people living in Yerushalayim to prostitute themselves and drew Y’hudah away.
12 A letter came to him from Eliyahu the prophet which said, “Here is what Adonai, the God of David your ancestor, says: ‘You have not lived by the examples of Y’hoshafat your father or Asa king of Y’hudah.
13 Instead you have lived by the example of the kings of Isra’el and have caused Y’hudah and the people living in Yerushalayim to prostitute themselves, just as the house of Ach’av caused [Isra’el] to prostitute themselves. Moreover, you killed your brothers from your father’s house, men better than you.
14 Because of all this, Adonai is going to strike your people with a terrible disease, also your children, your wives and everything you have.
15 You will be very ill from a disease in your intestines, until your intestines protrude, because of the effects of this disease, day after day.’”
