23 He said, "O LORD , the God of Israel, there is no God like You in heaven above or on earth beneath , keeping covenant and showing lovingkindness to Your servants who walk before You with all their heart,

1 Kings 8:25

1 Kings 8:28

44 "When Your people go out to battle against their enemy, by whatever way You shall send them, and they pray to the LORD toward the city which You have chosen and the house which I have built for Your name,

1 Kings 8:53

53 "For You have separated them from all the peoples of the earth as Your inheritance, as You spoke through Moses Your servant, when You brought our fathers forth from Egypt, O Lord GOD."

1 Kings 8:54

54 When Solomon had finished praying this entire prayer and supplication to the LORD , he arose from before the altar of the LORD , from kneeling on his knees with his hands spread toward heaven.

1 Kings 8:56

56 "Blessed be the LORD , who has given rest to His people Israel, according to all that He promised; not one word has failed of all His good promise, which He promised through Moses His servant.

1 Kings 8:57

1 Kings 8:60

60 so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD is God; there is no one else.

1 Kings 8:61

61 "Let your heart therefore be wholly devoted to the LORD our God, to walk in His statutes and to keep His commandments, as at this day."

1 Kings 8:62

1 Kings 8:63

63 Solomon offered for the sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offered to the LORD , 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. So the king and all the sons of Israel dedicated the house of the LORD .

1 Kings 8:64

64 On the same day the king consecrated the middle of the court that was before the house of the LORD , because there he offered the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat of the peace offerings; for the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too small to hold the burnt offering and the grain offering and the fat of the peace offerings.

1 Kings 8:65

1 Kings 8:66

66 On the eighth day he sent the people away and they blessed the king. Then they went to their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the goodness that the LORD had shown to David His servant and to Israel His people.

1 Kings 9:1

1 Now it came about when Solomon had finished building the house of the LORD , and the king's house, and all that Solomon desired to do,

1 Kings 9:2

2 that the LORD appeared to Solomon a second time, as He had appeared to him at Gibeon.

1 Kings 9:3

3 The LORD said to him, "I have heard your prayer and your supplication, which you have made before Me; I have consecrated this house which you have built by putting My name there forever , and My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually .

1 Kings 9:8

8 "And this house will become a heap of ruins; everyone who passes by will be astonished and hiss and say, 'Why has the LORD done thus to this land and to this house?'

1 Kings 9:9

9 "And they will say, 'Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and adopted other gods and worshiped them and served them, therefore the LORD has brought all this adversity on them.' "

1 Kings 9:10

10 It came about at the end of twenty years in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house

1 Kings 9:15

15 Now this is the account of the forced labor which King Solomon levied to build the house of the LORD , his own house, the Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.

1 Kings 9:25

25 Now three times in a year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he built to the LORD , burning incense with them on the altar which was before the LORD . So he finished the house.

1 Kings 10:1

1 Now when the queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD , she came to test him with difficult questions.

1 Kings 10:5

5 the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the attendance of his waiters and their attire, his cupbearers, and his stairway by which he went up to the house of the LORD , there was no more spirit in her.

1 Kings 10:9

9 "Blessed be the LORD your God who delighted in you to set you on the throne of Israel; because the LORD loved Israel forever, therefore He made you king, to do justice and righteousness."

1 Kings 10:12

12 The king made of the almug trees supports for the house of the LORD and for the king's house, also lyres and harps for the singers; such almug trees have not come in again nor have they been seen to this day.

1 Kings 11:2

2 from the nations concerning which the LORD had said to the sons of Israel, "You shall not associate with them, nor shall they associate with you, for they will surely turn your heart away after their gods." Solomon held fast to these in love.

1 Kings 11:4

4 For when Solomon was old, his wives turned his heart away after other gods; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father had been.

1 Kings 11:6

6 Solomon did what was evil in the sight of the LORD , and did not follow the LORD fully, as David his father had done.

1 Kings 11:9

9 Now the LORD was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned away from the LORD , the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,

1 Kings 11:10

10 and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he did not observe what the LORD had commanded.

1 Kings 11:11

11 So the LORD said to Solomon, "Because you have done this, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you, and will give it to your servant.

1 Kings 11:14

14 Then the LORD raised up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he was of the royal line in Edom.

1 Kings 11:31

31 He said to Jeroboam, "Take for yourself ten pieces; for thus says the LORD , the God of Israel, 'Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and give you ten tribes

1 Kings 12:15

15 So the king did not listen to the people; for it was a turn of events from the LORD , that He might establish His word, which the LORD spoke through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

1 Kings 12:24

24 'Thus says the LORD , "You must not go up and fight against your relatives the sons of Israel; return every man to his house, for this thing has come from Me.""' So they listened to the word of the LORD , and returned and went their way according to the word of the LORD .

1 Kings 12:27

27 "If this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will return to their lord , even to Rehoboam king of Judah; and they will kill me and return to Rehoboam king of Judah."

1 Kings 13:1

1 Now behold, there came a man of God from Judah to Bethel by the word of the LORD , while Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense.

1 Kings 13:2

2 He cried against the altar by the word of the LORD , and said, "O altar, altar, thus says the LORD , 'Behold, a son shall be born to the house of David, Josiah by name; and on you he shall sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and human bones shall be burned on you.' "

1 Kings 13:3

3 Then he gave a sign the same day, saying, "This is the sign which the LORD has spoken, 'Behold, the altar shall be split apart and the ashes which are on it shall be poured out.' "

1 Kings 13:5

5 The altar also was split apart and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the LORD .

1 Kings 13:6

6 The king said to the man of God, "Please entreat the LORD your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me." So the man of God entreated the LORD , and the king's hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before.

1 Kings 13:9

9 "For so it was commanded me by the word of the LORD , saying, 'You shall eat no bread, nor drink water, nor return by the way which you came.' "

1 Kings 13:17

17 "For a command came to me by the word of the LORD , 'You shall eat no bread, nor drink water there; do not return by going the way which you came.' "

1 Kings 13:18

18 He said to him, "I also am a prophet like you, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the LORD , saying, 'Bring him back with you to your house, that he may eat bread and drink water.' " But he lied to him.

1 Kings 13:20

20 Now it came about, as they were sitting down at the table, that the word of the LORD came to the prophet who had brought him back;

1 Kings 13:21

21 and he cried to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, "Thus says the LORD , 'Because you have disobeyed the command of the LORD , and have not observed the commandment which the LORD your God commanded you,

1 Kings 13:26

26 Now when the prophet who brought him back from the way heard it, he said, "It is the man of God, who disobeyed the command of the LORD ; therefore the LORD has given him to the lion, which has torn him and killed him, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke to him."

1 Kings 13:32

32 "For the thing shall surely come to pass which he cried by the word of the LORD against the altar in Bethel and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria."

1 Kings 14:5

5 Now the LORD had said to Ahijah, "Behold, the wife of Jeroboam is coming to inquire of you concerning her son, for he is sick. You shall say thus and thus to her, for it will be when she arrives that she will pretend to be another woman."

1 Kings 14:7

7 "Go, say to Jeroboam, 'Thus says the LORD God of Israel, "Because I exalted you from among the people and made you leader over My people Israel,

1 Kings 14:11

11 "Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city the dogs will eat. And he who dies in the field the birds of the heavens will eat; for the LORD has spoken it."'

1 Kings 14:13

13 "All Israel shall mourn for him and bury him, for he alone of Jeroboam's family will come to the grave, because in him something good was found toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.

1 Kings 14:14

14 "Moreover, the LORD will raise up for Himself a king over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam this day and from now on.

1 Kings 14:15

15 "For the LORD will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and He will uproot Israel from this good land which He gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the Euphrates River, because they have made their Asherim, provoking the LORD to anger.

1 Kings 14:18

18 All Israel buried him and mourned for him, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke through His servant Ahijah the prophet.

1 Kings 14:21

21 Now Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen from all the tribes of Israel to put His name there. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

1 Kings 14:22

22 Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD , and they provoked Him to jealousy more than all that their fathers had done, with the sins which they committed.

1 Kings 14:24

24 There were also male cult prostitutes in the land. They did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD dispossessed before the sons of Israel.

1 Kings 14:26

26 He took away the treasures of the house of the LORD and the treasures of the king's house, and he took everything, even taking all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.

1 Kings 14:28

28 Then it happened as often as the king entered the house of the LORD , that the guards would carry them and would bring them back into the guards' room.

1 Kings 15:3

3 He walked in all the sins of his father which he had committed before him; and his heart was not wholly devoted to the LORD his God, like the heart of his father David.

1 Kings 15:4

4 But for David's sake the LORD his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to raise up his son after him and to establish Jerusalem;

1 Kings 15:5

5 because David did what was right in the sight of the LORD , and had not turned aside from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.

1 Kings 15:11

11 Asa did what was right in the sight of the LORD , like David his father.

1 Kings 15:14

14 But the high places were not taken away; nevertheless the heart of Asa was wholly devoted to the LORD all his days.

1 Kings 15:15

15 He brought into the house of the LORD the dedicated things of his father and his own dedicated things: silver and gold and utensils.

1 Kings 15:18

18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold which were left in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the treasuries of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants. And King Asa sent them to Ben-hadad the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Aram, who lived in Damascus, saying,

1 Kings 15:26

26 He did evil in the sight of the LORD , and walked in the way of his father and in his sin which he made Israel sin.

1 Kings 15:29

29 It came about as soon as he was king, he struck down all the household of Jeroboam. He did not leave to Jeroboam any persons alive, until he had destroyed them, according to the word of the LORD , which He spoke by His servant Ahijah the Shilonite,

1 Kings 15:30

30 and because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, because of his provocation with which he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger.

1 Kings 15:34

34 He did evil in the sight of the LORD , and walked in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin which he made Israel sin.

1 Kings 16:1

1 Now the word of the LORD came to Jehu the son of Hanani against Baasha, saying,

1 Kings 16:7

7 Moreover, the word of the LORD through the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani also came against Baasha and his household, both because of all the evil which he did in the sight of the LORD , provoking Him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam, and because he struck it.

1 Kings 16:12

12 Thus Zimri destroyed all the household of Baasha, according to the word of the LORD , which He spoke against Baasha through Jehu the prophet,

1 Kings 16:13

13 for all the sins of Baasha and the sins of Elah his son, which they sinned and which they made Israel sin, provoking the LORD God of Israel to anger with their idols.

1 Kings 16:19

19 because of his sins which he sinned, doing evil in the sight of the LORD , walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, making Israel sin.

1 Kings 16:25

25 Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD , and acted more wickedly than all who were before him.

1 Kings 16:26

26 For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat and in his sins which he made Israel sin, provoking the LORD God of Israel with their idols.

1 Kings 16:30

30 Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD more than all who were before him.

1 Kings 16:33

33 Ahab also made the Asherah. Thus Ahab did more to provoke the LORD God of Israel than all the kings of Israel who were before him.

1 Kings 16:34

34 In his days Hiel the Bethelite built Jericho; he laid its foundations with the loss of Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates with the loss of his youngest son Segub, according to the word of the LORD , which He spoke by Joshua the son of Nun.

1 Kings 17:1

1 Now Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As the LORD , the God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, surely there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, except by my word."

1 Kings 17:2

2 The word of the LORD came to him, saying,

1 Kings 17:5

5 So he went and did according to the word of the LORD , for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan.

1 Kings 17:8

8 Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

1 Kings 17:12

12 But she said, "As the LORD your God lives, I have no bread, only a handful of flour in the bowl and a little oil in the jar; and behold, I am gathering a few sticks that I may go in and prepare for me and my son, that we may eat it and die."

1 Kings 17:14

14 "For thus says the LORD God of Israel, 'The bowl of flour shall not be exhausted, nor shall the jar of oil be empty, until the day that the LORD sends rain on the face of the earth.' "

1 Kings 17:16

16 The bowl of flour was not exhausted nor did the jar of oil become empty, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke through Elijah.

1 Kings 17:20

20 He called to the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, have You also brought calamity to the widow with whom I am staying, by causing her son to die?"

1 Kings 17:21

21 Then he stretched himself upon the child three times, and called to the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, I pray You, let this child's life return to him."

1 Kings 17:22

22 The LORD heard the voice of Elijah, and the life of the child returned to him and he revived.

1 Kings 17:24

24 Then the woman said to Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the LORD in your mouth is truth."

1 Kings 18:1

1 Now it happened after many days that the word of the LORD came to Elijah in the third year, saying, "Go, show yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain on the face of the earth."

1 Kings 18:3

3 Ahab called Obadiah who was over the household. (Now Obadiah feared the LORD greatly;

1 Kings 18:4

4 for when Jezebel destroyed the prophets of the LORD , Obadiah took a hundred prophets and hid them by fifties in a cave, and provided them with bread and water.)

1 Kings 18:10

10 "As the LORD your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom where my master has not sent to search for you; and when they said, 'He is not here,' he made the kingdom or nation swear that they could not find you.

1 Kings 18:12

12 "It will come about when I leave you that the Spirit of the LORD will carry you where I do not know; so when I come and tell Ahab and he cannot find you, he will kill me, although I your servant have feared the LORD from my youth.

1 Kings 18:13

13 "Has it not been told to my master what I did when Jezebel killed the prophets of the LORD , that I hid a hundred prophets of the LORD by fifties in a cave, and provided them with bread and water?

1 Kings 18:15

15 Elijah said, "As the LORD of hosts lives, before whom I stand, I will surely show myself to him today."

1 Kings 18:18

18 He said, "I have not troubled Israel, but you and your father's house have, because you have forsaken the commandments of the LORD and you have followed the Baals.

1 Kings 18:21

21 Elijah came near to all the people and said, "How long will you hesitate between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him." But the people did not answer him a word.

1 Kings 18:22

22 Then Elijah said to the people, "I alone am left a prophet of the LORD , but Baal's prophets are 450 men.

1 Kings 18:24

24 "Then you call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the LORD , and the God who answers by fire, He is God." And all the people said, "That is a good idea."

1 Kings 18:30

30 Then Elijah said to all the people, "Come near to me." So all the people came near to him. And he repaired the altar of the LORD which had been torn down.

1 Kings 18:31

31 Elijah took twelve stones according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, to whom the word of the LORD had come, saying, "Israel shall be your name."

1 Kings 18:32

32 So with the stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD , and he made a trench around the altar, large enough to hold two measures of seed.

1 Kings 18:36

36 At the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, Elijah the prophet came near and said, "O LORD , the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, today let it be known that You are God in Israel and that I am Your servant and I have done all these things at Your word.

1 Kings 18:37

37 "Answer me, O LORD , answer me, that this people may know that You, O LORD , are God, and that You have turned their heart back again."

1 Kings 18:38

38 Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt offering and the wood and the stones and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.

1 Kings 18:39

39 When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, "The LORD , He is God; the LORD , He is God."

1 Kings 18:46

46 Then the hand of the LORD was on Elijah, and he girded up his loins and outran Ahab to Jezreel.

1 Kings 19:4

4 But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree; and he requested for himself that he might die, and said, "It is enough; now, O LORD , take my life, for I am not better than my fathers."

1 Kings 19:7

7 The angel of the LORD came again a second time and touched him and said, "Arise, eat, because the journey is too great for you."

1 Kings 19:9

9 Then he came there to a cave and lodged there; and behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and He said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

1 Kings 19:10

10 He said, "I have been very zealous for the LORD , the God of hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars and killed Your prophets with the sword. And I alone am left; and they seek my life, to take it away."

1 Kings 19:11

11 So He said, "Go forth and stand on the mountain before the LORD ." And behold, the LORD was passing by! And a great and strong wind was rending the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before the LORD ; but the LORD was not in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.

1 Kings 19:12

12 After the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a sound of a gentle blowing.

1 Kings 19:14

14 Then he said, "I have been very zealous for the LORD , the God of hosts; for the sons of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars and killed Your prophets with the sword. And I alone am left; and they seek my life, to take it away."

1 Kings 19:15

15 The LORD said to him, "Go, return on your way to the wilderness of Damascus, and when you have arrived, you shall anoint Hazael king over Aram;

1 Kings 20:13

13 Now behold, a prophet approached Ahab king of Israel and said, "Thus says the LORD , 'Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will deliver them into your hand today, and you shall know that I am the LORD .' "

1 Kings 20:14

14 Ahab said, "By whom?" So he said, "Thus says the LORD , 'By the young men of the rulers of the provinces.' " Then he said, "Who shall begin the battle?" And he answered, "You."

1 Kings 20:28

28 Then a man of God came near and spoke to the king of Israel and said, "Thus says the LORD , 'Because the Arameans have said, "The LORD is a god of the mountains, but He is not a god of the valleys," therefore I will give all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am the LORD .' "

1 Kings 20:35

35 Now a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to another by the word of the LORD , "Please strike me." But the man refused to strike him.

1 Kings 20:36

36 Then he said to him, "Because you have not listened to the voice of the LORD , behold, as soon as you have departed from me, a lion will kill you." And as soon as he had departed from him a lion found him and killed him.

1 Kings 20:42

42 He said to him, "Thus says the LORD , 'Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people.' "

1 Kings 21:3

3 But Naboth said to Ahab, "The LORD forbid me that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers."

1 Kings 21:17

17 Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

1 Kings 21:19

19 "You shall speak to him, saying, 'Thus says the LORD , "Have you murdered and also taken possession?"' And you shall speak to him, saying, 'Thus says the LORD , "In the place where the dogs licked up the blood of Naboth the dogs will lick up your blood, even yours.""'

1 Kings 21:20

20 Ahab said to Elijah, "Have you found me, O my enemy?" And he answered, "I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do evil in the sight of the LORD .

1 Kings 21:23

23 "Of Jezebel also has the LORD spoken, saying, 'The dogs will eat Jezebel in the district of Jezreel.'

1 Kings 21:25

25 Surely there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do evil in the sight of the LORD , because Jezebel his wife incited him.

1 Kings 21:26

26 He acted very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites had done, whom the LORD cast out before the sons of Israel.

1 Kings 21:28

28 Then the word of the LORD came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

1 Kings 22:5

5 Moreover, Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire first for the word of the LORD ."

1 Kings 22:7

7 But Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not yet a prophet of the LORD here that we may inquire of him?"

1 Kings 22:8

8 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD , but I hate him, because he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. He is Micaiah son of Imlah." But Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say so."

1 Kings 22:11

11 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made horns of iron for himself and said, "Thus says the LORD , 'With these you will gore the Arameans until they are consumed.' "

1 Kings 22:12

12 All the prophets were prophesying thus, saying, "Go up to Ramoth-gilead and prosper, for the LORD will give it into the hand of the king."

1 Kings 22:14

14 But Micaiah said, "As the LORD lives, what the LORD says to me, that I shall speak."

1 Kings 22:15

15 When he came to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we refrain?" And he answered him, "Go up and succeed, and the LORD will give it into the hand of the king."

1 Kings 22:16

16 Then the king said to him, "How many times must I adjure you to speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of the LORD ?"

1 Kings 22:17

17 So he said, "I saw all Israel Scattered on the mountains, Like sheep which have no shepherd. And the LORD said, 'These have no master. Let each of them return to his house in peace.' "

1 Kings 22:19

19 Micaiah said, "Therefore, hear the word of the LORD . I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right and on His left.

1 Kings 22:20

20 "The LORD said, 'Who will entice Ahab to go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?' And one said this while another said that.

1 Kings 22:21

21 "Then a spirit came forward and stood before the LORD and said, 'I will entice him.'

1 Kings 22:22

22 "The LORD said to him, 'How?' And he said, 'I will go out and be a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' Then He said, 'You are to entice him and also prevail. Go and do so.'

1 Kings 22:23

23 "Now therefore, behold, the LORD has put a deceiving spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and the LORD has proclaimed disaster against you."

1 Kings 22:24

24 Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near and struck Micaiah on the cheek and said, "How did the Spirit of the LORD pass from me to speak to you?"

1 Kings 22:28

28 Micaiah said, "If you indeed return safely the LORD has not spoken by me." And he said, "Listen, all you people."

1 Kings 22:38

38 They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria, and the dogs licked up his blood (now the harlots bathed themselves there), according to the word of the LORD which He spoke.

1 Kings 22:43

43 He walked in all the way of Asa his father; he did not turn aside from it, doing right in the sight of the LORD . However, the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places.

1 Kings 22:52

52 He did evil in the sight of the LORD and walked in the way of his father and in the way of his mother and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin.

1 Kings 22:53

53 So he served Baal and worshiped him and provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger, according to all that his father had done.
