26 Salomone, dissi io, re d’Israele, non peccò egli in questo, benchè fra molte nazioni non sia stato re pari a lui, e ch’egli fosse amato dall’Iddio suo, e che Iddio l’avesse costituito re sopra tutto Israele? E pur le donne straniere lo fecero peccare.
26
Was it not because of marriages like these that Solomon king of Israel sinned? Among the many nations there was no king like him. He was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel, but even he was led into sin by foreign women.
