Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.

The nations of which the Lord had said to the children of Israel, You are not to take wives from them and they are not to take wives from you; or they will certainly make you go after their gods: to these Solomon was united in love.

And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.

Thy silver and thy gold is mine; thy wives also and thy children, even the goodliest, are mine.

And the messengers came again, and said, Thus speaketh Benhadad, saying, Although I have sent unto thee, saying, Thou shalt deliver me thy silver, and thy gold, and thy wives, and thy children;

Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Mark, I pray you, and see how this man seeketh mischief: for he sent unto me for my wives, and for my children, and for my silver, and for my gold; and I denied him not.
