Verse 26

Did not Solomon{H8010} king{H4428} of Israel{H3478} sin{H2398}{(H8804)} by these things? yet among many{H7227} nations{H1471} was there no king{H4428} like him, who was beloved{H157}{(H8803)} of his God{H430}, and God{H430} made{H5414}{(H8799)} him king{H4428} over all Israel{H3478}: nevertheless even him{H1571} did outlandish{H5237} women{H802} cause to sin{H2398}{(H8689)}.
