1 Kings 1:1; 1 Kings 1:2; 1 Kings 1:3; 1 Kings 1:4; 1 Kings 1:9; 1 Kings 1:13; 1 Kings 1:14; 1 Kings 1:15; 1 Kings 1:16; 1 Kings 1:18; 1 Kings 1:19; 1 Kings 1:20; 1 Kings 1:21; 1 Kings 1:22; 1 Kings 1:23; 1 Kings 1:24; 1 Kings 1:25; 1 Kings 1:27; 1 Kings 1:28; 1 Kings 1:29; 1 Kings 1:31; 1 Kings 1:32; 1 Kings 1:33; 1 Kings 1:34; 1 Kings 1:36; 1 Kings 1:37; 1 Kings 1:38; 1 Kings 1:39; 1 Kings 1:43; 1 Kings 1:44; 1 Kings 1:45; 1 Kings 1:47; 1 Kings 1:48; 1 Kings 1:51; 1 Kings 1:53; 1 Kings 2:17; 1 Kings 2:18; 1 Kings 2:19; 1 Kings 2:20; 1 Kings 2:22; 1 Kings 2:23; 1 Kings 2:25; 1 Kings 2:26; 1 Kings 2:29; 1 Kings 2:30; 1 Kings 2:31; 1 Kings 2:35; 1 Kings 2:36; 1 Kings 2:38; 1 Kings 2:39; 1 Kings 2:42; 1 Kings 2:44; 1 Kings 2:45; 1 Kings 2:46; 1 Kings 3:1; 1 Kings 3:4; 1 Kings 3:13; 1 Kings 3:16; 1 Kings 3:22; 1 Kings 3:23; 1 Kings 3:24; 1 Kings 3:25; 1 Kings 3:26; 1 Kings 3:27; 1 Kings 3:28; 1 Kings 4:1; 1 Kings 4:5; 1 Kings 4:7; 1 Kings 4:19; 1 Kings 4:24; 1 Kings 4:27; 1 Kings 4:34; 1 Kings 5:1; 1 Kings 5:13; 1 Kings 5:17; 1 Kings 6:2; 1 Kings 7:13; 1 Kings 7:14; 1 Kings 7:40; 1 Kings 7:45; 1 Kings 7:46; 1 Kings 7:51; 1 Kings 8:1; 1 Kings 8:2; 1 Kings 8:5; 1 Kings 8:14; 1 Kings 8:62; 1 Kings 8:63; 1 Kings 8:64; 1 Kings 8:66; 1 Kings 9:1; 1 Kings 9:10; 1 Kings 9:11; 1 Kings 9:14; 1 Kings 9:15; 1 Kings 9:16; 1 Kings 9:26; 1 Kings 9:28; 1 Kings 10:3; 1 Kings 10:6; 1 Kings 10:9; 1 Kings 10:10; 1 Kings 10:12; 1 Kings 10:13; 1 Kings 10:15; 1 Kings 10:16; 1 Kings 10:17; 1 Kings 10:18; 1 Kings 10:21; 1 Kings 10:22; 1 Kings 10:23; 1 Kings 10:26; 1 Kings 10:27; 1 Kings 10:28; 1 Kings 10:29; 1 Kings 11:1; 1 Kings 11:14; 1 Kings 11:18; 1 Kings 11:23; 1 Kings 11:26; 1 Kings 11:27; 1 Kings 11:37; 1 Kings 11:40; 1 Kings 12:2; 1 Kings 12:6; 1 Kings 12:12; 1 Kings 12:13; 1 Kings 12:15; 1 Kings 12:16; 1 Kings 12:18; 1 Kings 12:23; 1 Kings 12:27; 1 Kings 12:28; 1 Kings 13:4; 1 Kings 13:6; 1 Kings 13:7; 1 Kings 13:8; 1 Kings 13:11; 1 Kings 14:2; 1 Kings 14:14; 1 Kings 14:19; 1 Kings 14:25; 1 Kings 14:26; 1 Kings 14:27; 1 Kings 14:28; 1 Kings 14:29; 1 Kings 15:1; 1 Kings 15:7; 1 Kings 15:9; 1 Kings 15:16; 1 Kings 15:17; 1 Kings 15:18; 1 Kings 15:19; 1 Kings 15:20; 1 Kings 15:22; 1 Kings 15:23; 1 Kings 15:25; 1 Kings 15:28; 1 Kings 15:31; 1 Kings 15:32; 1 Kings 15:33; 1 Kings 16:5; 1 Kings 16:8; 1 Kings 16:10; 1 Kings 16:14; 1 Kings 16:15; 1 Kings 16:16; 1 Kings 16:18; 1 Kings 16:20; 1 Kings 16:23; 1 Kings 16:27; 1 Kings 16:29; 1 Kings 16:31; 1 Kings 16:33; 1 Kings 19:15; 1 Kings 19:16; 1 Kings 20:1; 1 Kings 20:2; 1 Kings 20:4; 1 Kings 20:7; 1 Kings 20:9; 1 Kings 20:11; 1 Kings 20:12; 1 Kings 20:13; 1 Kings 20:16; 1 Kings 20:20; 1 Kings 20:21; 1 Kings 20:22; 1 Kings 20:23; 1 Kings 20:24; 1 Kings 20:28; 1 Kings 20:31; 1 Kings 20:32; 1 Kings 20:38; 1 Kings 20:39; 1 Kings 20:40; 1 Kings 20:41; 1 Kings 20:43; 1 Kings 21:1; 1 Kings 21:10; 1 Kings 21:13; 1 Kings 21:18; 1 Kings 22:2; 1 Kings 22:3; 1 Kings 22:4; 1 Kings 22:5; 1 Kings 22:6; 1 Kings 22:8; 1 Kings 22:9; 1 Kings 22:10; 1 Kings 22:12; 1 Kings 22:13; 1 Kings 22:15; 1 Kings 22:16; 1 Kings 22:18; 1 Kings 22:26; 1 Kings 22:27; 1 Kings 22:29; 1 Kings 22:30; 1 Kings 22:31; 1 Kings 22:32; 1 Kings 22:33; 1 Kings 22:34; 1 Kings 22:35; 1 Kings 22:37; 1 Kings 22:39; 1 Kings 22:41; 1 Kings 22:44; 1 Kings 22:45; 1 Kings 22:47; 1 Kings 22:51

1 Kings 1:1

1 Now King David was old, advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm.

1 Kings 1:2

2 So his servants said to him, "Let them seek a young virgin for my lord the king, and let her attend the king and become his nurse; and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may keep warm."

1 Kings 1:3

3 So they searched for a beautiful girl throughout all the territory of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

1 Kings 1:4

4 The girl was very beautiful; and she became the king's nurse and served him, but the king did not cohabit with her.

1 Kings 1:9

9 Adonijah sacrificed sheep and oxen and fatlings by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En-rogel; and he invited all his brothers, the king's sons, and all the men of Judah, the king's servants.

1 Kings 1:13

13 "Go at once to King David and say to him, 'Have you not, my lord , O king, sworn to your maidservant, saying, "Surely Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne "? Why then has Adonijah become king?'

1 Kings 1:14

14 "Behold, while you are still there speaking with the king, I will come in after you and confirm your words."

1 Kings 1:15

15 So Bathsheba went in to the king in the bedroom. Now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was ministering to the king.

1 Kings 1:16

16 Then Bathsheba bowed and prostrated herself before the king. And the king said, "What do you wish?"

1 Kings 1:18

18 "Now, behold, Adonijah is king; and now, my lord the king, you do not know it.

1 Kings 1:19

19 "He has sacrificed oxen and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the sons of the king and Abiathar the priest and Joab the commander of the army, but he has not invited Solomon your servant.

1 Kings 1:20

20 "As for you now, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, to tell them who shall sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.

1 Kings 1:21

21 "Otherwise it will come about, as soon as my lord the king sleeps with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be considered offenders."

1 Kings 1:22

22 Behold, while she was still speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.

1 Kings 1:23

23 They told the king, saying, "Here is Nathan the prophet." And when he came in before the king, he prostrated himself before the king with his face to the ground.

1 Kings 1:24

24 Then Nathan said, "My lord the king, have you said, 'Adonijah shall be king after me, and he shall sit on my throne '?

1 Kings 1:25

25 "For he has gone down today and has sacrificed oxen and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has invited all the king's sons and the commanders of the army and Abiathar the priest, and behold, they are eating and drinking before him; and they say, 'Long live King Adonijah!'

1 Kings 1:27

27 "Has this thing been done by my lord the king, and you have not shown to your servants who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?"

1 Kings 1:28

28 Then King David said, "Call Bathsheba to me." And she came into the king's presence and stood before the king.

1 Kings 1:29

29 The king vowed and said, "As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all distress,

1 Kings 1:31

31 Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the ground, and prostrated herself before the king and said, "May my lord King David live forever."

1 Kings 1:32

32 Then King David said, "Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada." And they came into the king's presence.

1 Kings 1:33

33 The king said to them, "Take with you the servants of your lord , and have my son Solomon ride on my own mule, and bring him down to Gihon.

1 Kings 1:34

34 "Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there as king over Israel, and blow the trumpet and say, 'Long live King Solomon!'

1 Kings 1:36

36 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king and said, "Amen! Thus may the LORD , the God of my lord the king, say.

1 Kings 1:37

37 "As the LORD has been with my lord the king, so may He be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord King David!"

1 Kings 1:38

38 So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the Cherethites, and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon ride on King David's mule, and brought him to Gihon.

1 Kings 1:39

39 Zadok the priest then took the horn of oil from the tent and anointed Solomon. Then they blew the trumpet, and all the people said, "Long live King Solomon!"

1 Kings 1:43

43 But Jonathan replied to Adonijah, "No! Our lord King David has made Solomon king.

1 Kings 1:44

44 "The king has also sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the Cherethites, and the Pelethites; and they have made him ride on the king's mule.

1 Kings 1:45

45 "Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon, and they have come up from there rejoicing, so that the city is in an uproar. This is the noise which you have heard.

1 Kings 1:47

47 "Moreover, the king's servants came to bless our lord King David, saying, 'May your God make the name of Solomon better than your name and his throne greater than your throne!' And the king bowed himself on the bed.

1 Kings 1:48

48 "The king has also said thus, 'Blessed be the LORD , the God of Israel, who has granted one to sit on my throne today while my own eyes see it."'

1 Kings 1:51

51 Now it was told Solomon, saying, "Behold, Adonijah is afraid of King Solomon, for behold, he has taken hold of the horns of the altar, saying, 'Let King Solomon swear to me today that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.' "

1 Kings 1:53

53 So King Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and prostrated himself before King Solomon, and Solomon said to him, "Go to your house."

1 Kings 2:17

17 Then he said, "Please speak to Solomon the king, for he will not refuse you, that he may give me Abishag the Shunammite as a wife."

1 Kings 2:18

18 Bathsheba said, "Very well; I will speak to the king for you."

1 Kings 2:19

19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king arose to meet her, bowed before her, and sat on his throne; then he had a throne set for the king's mother, and she sat on his right.

1 Kings 2:20

20 Then she said, "I am making one small request of you; do not refuse me." And the king said to her, "Ask, my mother, for I will not refuse you."

1 Kings 2:22

22 King Solomon answered and said to his mother, "And why are you asking Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him also the kingdom -for he is my older brother -even for him, for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah!"

1 Kings 2:23

23 Then King Solomon swore by the LORD , saying, "May God do so to me and more also, if Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life.

1 Kings 2:25

25 So King Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him so that he died.

1 Kings 2:26

26 Then to Abiathar the priest the king said, "Go to Anathoth to your own field, for you deserve to die; but I will not put you to death at this time, because you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before my father David, and because you were afflicted in everything with which my father was afflicted."

1 Kings 2:29

29 It was told King Solomon that Joab had fled to the tent of the LORD , and behold, he is beside the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, "Go, fall upon him."

1 Kings 2:30

30 So Benaiah came to the tent of the LORD and said to him, "Thus the king has said, 'Come out.' " But he said, "No, for I will die here." And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, "Thus spoke Joab, and thus he answered me."

1 Kings 2:31

31 The king said to him, "Do as he has spoken and fall upon him and bury him, that you may remove from me and from my father's house the blood which Joab shed without cause.

1 Kings 2:35

35 The king appointed Benaiah the son of Jehoiada over the army in his place, and the king appointed Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar.

1 Kings 2:36

36 Now the king sent and called for Shimei and said to him, "Build for yourself a house in Jerusalem and live there, and do not go out from there to any place.

1 Kings 2:38

38 Shimei then said to the king, "The word is good. As my lord the king has said, so your servant will do." So Shimei lived in Jerusalem many days.

1 Kings 2:39

39 But it came about at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away to Achish son of Maacah, king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, "Behold, your servants are in Gath."

1 Kings 2:42

42 So the king sent and called for Shimei and said to him, "Did I not make you swear by the LORD and solemnly warn you, saying, 'You will know for certain that on the day you depart and go anywhere, you shall surely die '? And you said to me, 'The word which I have heard is good.'

1 Kings 2:44

44 The king also said to Shimei, "You know all the evil which you acknowledge in your heart, which you did to my father David; therefore the LORD shall return your evil on your own head.

1 Kings 2:45

45 "But King Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD forever ."

1 Kings 2:46

46 So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and fell upon him so that he died. Thus the kingdom was established in the hands of Solomon.

1 Kings 3:1

1 Then Solomon formed a marriage alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter and brought her to the city of David until he had finished building his own house and the house of the LORD and the wall around Jerusalem.

1 Kings 3:4

4 The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place; Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.

1 Kings 3:13

13 "I have also given you what you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there will not be any among the kings like you all your days.

1 Kings 3:16

16 Then two women who were harlots came to the king and stood before him.

1 Kings 3:22

22 Then the other woman said, "No! For the living one is my son, and the dead one is your son." But the first woman said, "No! For the dead one is your son, and the living one is my son." Thus they spoke before the king.

1 Kings 3:23

23 Then the king said, "The one says, 'This is my son who is living, and your son is the dead one'; and the other says, 'No! For your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.' "

1 Kings 3:24

24 The king said, "Get me a sword." So they brought a sword before the king.

1 Kings 3:25

25 The king said, "Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one and half to the other."

1 Kings 3:26

26 Then the woman whose child was the living one spoke to the king, for she was deeply stirred over her son and said, "Oh, my lord , give her the living child, and by no means kill him." But the other said, "He shall be neither mine nor yours; divide him!"

1 Kings 3:27

27 Then the king said, "Give the first woman the living child, and by no means kill him. She is his mother."

1 Kings 3:28

28 When all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had handed down, they feared the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.

1 Kings 4:1

1 Now King Solomon was king over all Israel.

1 Kings 4:5

5 and Azariah the son of Nathan was over the deputies; and Zabud the son of Nathan, a priest, was the king's friend;

1 Kings 4:7

7 Solomon had twelve deputies over all Israel, who provided for the king and his household; each man had to provide for a month in the year.

1 Kings 4:19

19 Geber the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan; and he was the only deputy who was in the land.

1 Kings 4:24

24 For he had dominion over everything west of the River, from Tiphsah even to Gaza, over all the kings west of the River; and he had peace on all sides around about him.

1 Kings 4:27

27 Those deputies provided for King Solomon and all who came to King Solomon's table, each in his month; they left nothing lacking.

1 Kings 4:34

34 Men came from all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom.

1 Kings 5:1

1 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon, when he heard that they had anointed him king in place of his father, for Hiram had always been a friend of David.

1 Kings 5:13

13 Now King Solomon levied forced laborers from all Israel; and the forced laborers numbered 30,000 men.

1 Kings 5:17

17 Then the king commanded, and they quarried great stones, costly stones, to lay the foundation of the house with cut stones.

1 Kings 6:2

2 As for the house which King Solomon built for the LORD , its length was sixty cubits and its width twenty cubits and its height thirty cubits.

1 Kings 7:13

13 Now King Solomon sent and brought Hiram from Tyre.

1 Kings 7:14

14 He was a widow's son from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze; and he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill for doing any work in bronze. So he came to King Solomon and performed all his work.

1 Kings 7:40

40 Now Hiram made the basins and the shovels and the bowls. So Hiram finished doing all the work which he performed for King Solomon in the house of the LORD :

1 Kings 7:45

45 and the pails and the shovels and the bowls; even all these utensils which Hiram made for King Solomon in the house of the LORD were of polished bronze.

1 Kings 7:46

46 In the plain of the Jordan the king cast them, in the clay ground between Succoth and Zarethan.

1 Kings 7:51

51 Thus all the work that King Solomon performed in the house of the LORD was finished. And Solomon brought in the things dedicated by his father David, the silver and the gold and the utensils, and he put them in the treasuries of the house of the LORD .

1 Kings 8:1

1 Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the leaders of the fathers' households of the sons of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from the city of David, which is Zion.

1 Kings 8:2

2 All the men of Israel assembled themselves to King Solomon at the feast, in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

1 Kings 8:5

5 And King Solomon and all the congregation of Israel, who were assembled to him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing so many sheep and oxen they could not be counted or numbered.

1 Kings 8:14

14 Then the king faced about and blessed all the assembly of Israel, while all the assembly of Israel was standing.

1 Kings 8:62

62 Now the king and all Israel with him offered sacrifice before the LORD .

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 8:66

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 9:10

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 9:11

11 (Hiram king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and cypress timber and gold according to all his desire ), then King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

1 Kings 9:14

14 And Hiram sent to the king 120 talents of gold.

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 9:16

16 For Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and captured Gezer and burned it with fire, and killed the Canaanites who lived in the city, and had given it as a dowry to his daughter, Solomon's wife.

1 Kings 9:26

26 King Solomon also built a fleet of ships in Ezion-geber, which is near Eloth on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.

1 Kings 9:28

28 They went to Ophir and took four hundred and twenty talents of gold from there, and brought it to King Solomon.

1 Kings 10:3

3 Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was hidden from the king which he did not explain to her.

1 Kings 10:6

6 Then she said to the king, "It was a true report which I heard in my own land about your words and your wisdom.

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 10:10

10 She gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a very great amount of spices and precious stones. Never again did such abundance of spices come in as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.

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 10:13

13 King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire which she requested, besides what he gave her according to his royal bounty. Then she turned and went to her own land together with her servants.

1 Kings 10:15

15 besides that from the traders and the wares of the merchants and all the kings of the Arabs and the governors of the country.

1 Kings 10:16

16 King Solomon made 200 large shields of beaten gold, using 600 shekels of gold on each large shield.

1 Kings 10:17

17 He made 300 shields of beaten gold, using three minas of gold on each shield, and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

1 Kings 10:18

18 Moreover, the king made a great throne of ivory and overlaid it with refined gold.

1 Kings 10:21

21 All King Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. None was of silver; it was not considered valuable in the days of Solomon.

1 Kings 10:22

22 For the king had at sea the ships of Tarshish with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the ships of Tarshish came bringing gold and silver, ivory and apes and peacocks.

1 Kings 10:23

23 So King Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.

1 Kings 10:26

26 Now Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horsemen, and he stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.

1 Kings 10:27

27 The king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem, and he made cedars as plentiful as sycamore trees that are in the lowland.

1 Kings 10:28

28 Also Solomon's import of horses was from Egypt and Kue, and the king's merchants procured them from Kue for a price.

1 Kings 10:29

29 A chariot was imported from Egypt for 600 shekels of silver, and a horse for 150 ; and by the same means they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of the Arameans.

1 Kings 11:1

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

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 11:18

18 They arose from Midian and came to Paran; and they took men with them from Paran and came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house and assigned him food and gave him land.

1 Kings 11:23

23 God also raised up another adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah.

1 Kings 11:26

26 Then Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, Solomon's servant, whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow, also rebelled against the king.

1 Kings 11:27

27 Now this was the reason why he rebelled against the king: Solomon built the Millo, and closed up the breach of the city of his father David.

1 Kings 11:37

37 'I will take you, and you shall reign over whatever you desire, and you shall be king over Israel.

1 Kings 11:40

40 Solomon sought therefore to put Jeroboam to death; but Jeroboam arose and fled to Egypt to Shishak king of Egypt, and he was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

1 Kings 12:2

2 Now when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it, he was living in Egypt (for he was yet in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon ).

1 Kings 12:6

6 King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, "How do you counsel me to answer this people?"

1 Kings 12:12

12 Then Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day as the king had directed, saying, "Return to me on the third day."

1 Kings 12:13

13 The king answered the people harshly, for he forsook the advice of the elders which they had given him,

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 12:16

16 When all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, "What portion do we have in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse; To your tents, O Israel! Now look after your own house, David!" So Israel departed to their tents.

1 Kings 12:18

18 Then King Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the forced labor, and all Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem.

1 Kings 12:23

23 "Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all the house of Judah and Benjamin and to the rest of the people, saying,

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 12:28

28 So the king consulted, and made two golden calves, and he said to them, "It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem; behold your gods, O Israel, that brought you up from the land of Egypt."

1 Kings 13:4

4 Now when the king heard the saying of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, "Seize him." But his hand which he stretched out against him dried up, so that he could not draw it back to himself.

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 13:7

7 Then the king said to the man of God, "Come home with me and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward."

1 Kings 13:8

8 But the man of God said to the king, "If you were to give me half your house I would not go with you, nor would I eat bread or drink water in this place.

1 Kings 13:11

11 Now an old prophet was living in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the deeds which the man of God had done that day in Bethel; the words which he had spoken to the king, these also they related to their father.

1 Kings 14:2

2 Jeroboam said to his wife, "Arise now, and disguise yourself so that they will not know that you are the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh; behold, Ahijah the prophet is there, who spoke concerning me that I would be king over this people.

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 14:19

19 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he made war and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

1 Kings 14:25

25 Now it happened in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, that Shishak the king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.

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 14:27

27 So King Rehoboam made shields of bronze in their place, and committed them to the care of the commanders of the guard who guarded the doorway of the king's house.

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 14:29

29 Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

1 Kings 15:1

1 Now in the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, Abijam became king over Judah.

1 Kings 15:7

7 Now the rest of the acts of Abijam and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

1 Kings 15:9

9 So in the twentieth year of Jeroboam the king of Israel, Asa began to reign as king of Judah.

1 Kings 15:16

16 Now there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.

1 Kings 15:17

17 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and fortified Ramah in order to prevent anyone from going out or coming in to Asa king of Judah.

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 15:19

19 "Let there be a treaty between you and me, as between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you a present of silver and gold; go, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel so that he will withdraw from me."

1 Kings 15:20

20 So Ben-hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, and conquered Ijon, Dan, Abel-beth-maacah and all Chinneroth, besides all the land of Naphtali.

1 Kings 15:22

22 Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah -none was exempt -and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber with which Baasha had built. And King Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin and Mizpah.

1 Kings 15:23

23 Now the rest of all the acts of Asa and all his might and all that he did and the cities which he built, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.

1 Kings 15:25

25 Now Nadab the son of Jeroboam became king over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years.

1 Kings 15:28

28 So Baasha killed him in the third year of Asa king of Judah and reigned in his place.

1 Kings 15:31

31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadab and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

1 Kings 15:32

32 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.

1 Kings 15:33

33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha the son of Ahijah became king over all Israel at Tirzah, and reigned twenty-four years.

1 Kings 16:5

5 Now the rest of the acts of Baasha and what he did and his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

1 Kings 16:8

8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah the son of Baasha became king over Israel at Tirzah, and reigned two years.

1 Kings 16:10

10 Then Zimri went in and struck him and put him to death in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and became king in his place.

1 Kings 16:14

14 Now the rest of the acts of Elah and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

1 Kings 16:15

15 In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri reigned seven days at Tirzah. Now the people were camped against Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines.

1 Kings 16:16

16 The people who were camped heard it said, "Zimri has conspired and has also struck down the king." Therefore all Israel made Omri, the commander of the army, king over Israel that day in the camp.

1 Kings 16:18

18 When Zimri saw that the city was taken, he went into the citadel of the king's house and burned the king's house over him with fire, and died,

1 Kings 16:20

20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri and his conspiracy which he carried out, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

1 Kings 16:23

23 In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri became king over Israel and reigned twelve years; he reigned six years at Tirzah.

1 Kings 16:27

27 Now the rest of the acts of Omri which he did and his might which he showed, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

1 Kings 16:29

29 Now Ahab the son of Omri became king over Israel in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years.

1 Kings 16:31

31 It came about, as though it had been a trivial thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Sidonians, and went to serve Baal and worshiped 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 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 19:16

16 and Jehu the son of Nimshi you shall anoint king over Israel; and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah you shall anoint as prophet in your place.

1 Kings 20:1

1 Now Ben-hadad king of Aram gathered all his army, and there were thirty-two kings with him, and horses and chariots. And he went up and besieged Samaria and fought against it.

1 Kings 20:2

2 Then he sent messengers to the city to Ahab king of Israel and said to him, "Thus says Ben-hadad,

1 Kings 20:4

4 The king of Israel replied, "It is according to your word, my lord , O king; I am yours, and all that I have."

1 Kings 20:7

7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land and said, "Please observe and see how this man is looking for trouble; for he sent to me for my wives and my children and my silver and my gold, and I did not refuse him."

1 Kings 20:9

9 So he said to the messengers of Ben-hadad, "Tell my lord the king, 'All that you sent for to your servant at the first I will do, but this thing I cannot do.' " And the messengers departed and brought him word again.

1 Kings 20:11

11 Then the king of Israel replied, "Tell him, 'Let not him who girds on his armor boast like him who takes it off.' "

1 Kings 20:12

12 When Ben-hadad heard this message, as he was drinking with the kings in the temporary shelters, he said to his servants, "Station yourselves." So they stationed themselves against the city.

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 20:16

16 They went out at noon, while Ben-hadad was drinking himself drunk in the temporary shelters with the thirty-two kings who helped him.

1 Kings 20:20

20 They killed each his man; and the Arameans fled and Israel pursued them, and Ben-hadad king of Aram escaped on a horse with horsemen.

1 Kings 20:21

21 The king of Israel went out and struck the horses and chariots, and killed the Arameans with a great slaughter.

1 Kings 20:22

22 Then the prophet came near to the king of Israel and said to him, "Go, strengthen yourself and observe and see what you have to do; for at the turn of the year the king of Aram will come up against you."

1 Kings 20:23

23 Now the servants of the king of Aram said to him, "Their gods are gods of the mountains, therefore they were stronger than we; but rather let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we will be stronger than they.

1 Kings 20:24

24 "Do this thing: remove the kings, each from his place, and put captains in their place,

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 20:31

31 His servants said to him, "Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings, please let us put sackcloth on our loins and ropes on our heads, and go out to the king of Israel; perhaps he will save your life."

1 Kings 20:32

32 So they girded sackcloth on their loins and put ropes on their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, "Your servant Ben-hadad says, 'Please let me live.' " And he said, "Is he still alive? He is my brother."

1 Kings 20:38

38 So the prophet departed and waited for the king by the way, and disguised himself with a bandage over his eyes.

1 Kings 20:39

39 As the king passed by, he cried to the king and said, "Your servant went out into the midst of the battle; and behold, a man turned aside and brought a man to me and said, 'Guard this man; if for any reason he is missing, then your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.'

1 Kings 20:40

40 "While your servant was busy here and there, he was gone." And the king of Israel said to him, "So shall your judgment be; you yourself have decided it."

1 Kings 20:41

41 Then he hastily took the bandage away from his eyes, and the king of Israel recognized him that he was of the prophets.

1 Kings 20:43

43 So the king of Israel went to his house sullen and vexed, and came to Samaria.

1 Kings 21:1

1 Now it came about after these things that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard which was in Jezreel beside the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.

1 Kings 21:10

10 and seat two worthless men before him, and let them testify against him, saying, 'You cursed God and the king.' Then take him out and stone him to death."

1 Kings 21:13

13 Then the two worthless men came in and sat before him; and the worthless men testified against him, even against Naboth, before the people, saying, "Naboth cursed God and the king." So they took him outside the city and stoned him to death with stones.

1 Kings 21:18

18 "Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who is in Samaria; behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth where he has gone down to take possession of it.

1 Kings 22:2

2 In the third year Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.

1 Kings 22:3

3 Now the king of Israel said to his servants, "Do you know that Ramoth-gilead belongs to us, and we are still doing nothing to take it out of the hand of the king of Aram?"

1 Kings 22:4

4 And he said to Jehoshaphat, "Will you go with me to battle at Ramoth-gilead?" And Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."

1 Kings 22:5

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

1 Kings 22:6

6 Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead to battle or shall I refrain?" And they said, "Go up, for the Lord will give it into the hand of the king."

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 22:9

9 Then the king of Israel called an officer and said, "Bring quickly Micaiah son of Imlah."

1 Kings 22:10

10 Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, at the threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.

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 22:13

13 Then the messenger who went to summon Micaiah spoke to him saying, "Behold now, the words of the prophets are uniformly favorable to the king. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably."

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 22:18

18 Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"

1 Kings 22:26

26 Then the king of Israel said, "Take Micaiah and return him to Amon the governor of the city and to Joash the king's son;

1 Kings 22:27

27 and say, 'Thus says the king, "Put this man in prison and feed him sparingly with bread and water until I return safely.""'

1 Kings 22:29

29 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah went up against Ramoth-gilead.

1 Kings 22:30

30 The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will disguise myself and go into the battle, but you put on your robes." So the king of Israel disguised himself and went into the battle.

1 Kings 22:31

31 Now the king of Aram had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, "Do not fight with small or great, but with the king of Israel alone."

1 Kings 22:32

32 So when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, "Surely it is the king of Israel," and they turned aside to fight against him, and Jehoshaphat cried out.

1 Kings 22:33

33 When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.

1 Kings 22:34

34 Now a certain man drew his bow at random and struck the king of Israel in a joint of the armor. So he said to the driver of his chariot, "Turn around and take me out of the fight; for I am severely wounded."

1 Kings 22:35

35 The battle raged that day, and the king was propped up in his chariot in front of the Arameans, and died at evening, and the blood from the wound ran into the bottom of the chariot.

1 Kings 22:37

37 So the king died and was brought to Samaria, and they buried the king in Samaria.

1 Kings 22:39

39 Now the rest of the acts of Ahab and all that he did and the ivory house which he built and all the cities which he built, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

1 Kings 22:41

41 Now Jehoshaphat the son of Asa became king over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.

1 Kings 22:44

44 Jehoshaphat also made peace with the king of Israel.

1 Kings 22:45

45 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might which he showed and how he warred, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

1 Kings 22:47

47 Now there was no king in Edom; a deputy was king.

1 Kings 22:51

51 Ahaziah the son of Ahab became king over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.
