1 Kings 11:31-33

International Standard Version

‘Pay attention! I’m going to tear the kingdom out of Solomon’s control^[a] and give you ten tribes. ³² I’ll leave him one tribe for the sake of my servant David and one tribe^[b] for the sake of Jerusalem, the city that I chose from all of the tribes of Israel. ³³ I’m doing this^[c] because they have abandoned me and worshipped that Sidonian goddess Astarte, the Moabite god Chemosh, and the Ammonite god Milcom. They haven’t lived my way by doing what I consider to be right and observing my statutes and my ordinances, like his father David did.
