17 And he shall not acquire many wives for himself, lest his heart turn away, nor shall he acquire for himself excessive silver and gold.

Solomon Turns from the Lord

1 Now King Solomon loved ^xmany foreign women, along with the ^ydaughter of Pharaoh: Moabite, Ammonite, Edomite, Sidonian, and Hittite women,

3 He had 700 wives, who were princesses, and 300 concubines. And his wives turned away his heart.

21 Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above ^tall his wives and concubines (he took eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and fathered twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters).

8 I also gathered for myself silver and ^zgold and the ^atreasure of kings and provinces. I got singers, ^bboth men and women, and ^cmany concubines,¹ the delight of the sons of man.
