3 Kings 11:9-12 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

9. And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,

10. And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not follow strange gods: but he kept not the things which the Lord commanded him.

11. The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant.

12. Nevertheless in thy days I will not do it, for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.
