1 Kings 11:7

Solomon's Apostasy

⁶ Solomon did what was evil in the Lord’s sight, and unlike his father David, he did not completely follow Yahweh. ⁷ At that time, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh, the detestable idol of Moab, and for Milcom, the detestable idol of the Ammonites, on the hill across from Jerusalem. ⁸ He did the same for all his foreign wives, who were burning incense and offering sacrifices to their gods.
