וַיֵּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה אַֽחֲרֵי עַשְׁתֹּרֶת אֱלֹהֵי צִֽדֹנִים וְאַֽחֲרֵי מִלְכֹּם שִׁקֻּץ עַמֹּנִֽים׃
5
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
יַעַן׀ אֲשֶׁר עֲזָבוּנִי וַיִּֽשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְעַשְׁתֹּרֶת אֱלֹהֵי צִֽדֹנִין לִכְמוֹשׁ אֱלֹהֵי מוֹאָב וּלְמִלְכֹּם אֱלֹהֵי בְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן וְלֹֽא-הָלְכוּ בִדְרָכַי לַֽעֲשׂוֹת הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינַי וְחֻקֹּתַי וּמִשְׁפָּטַי כְּדָוִד אָבִֽיו׃

Because that they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in mine eyes, and to keep my statutes and my judgments, as did David his father.
