ગુજરાતીનહેમ્યા ૧૩:૨૬
ઇઝરાયલના રાજા સુલેમાને શું એ બાબતો વિષે પાપ નહોતું કર્યું? જો કે ઘણા રાષ્ટ્રોમાં તેના જેટલો મહાન રાજા કોઈ નહોતો, તે પોતાના ઈશ્વરનો વહાલો હતો. અને ઈશ્વરે તેને સર્વ ઇઝરાયલીઓ પર રાજા ઠરાવ્યો હતો. તેમ છતાં તેની વિદેશી પત્નીઓએ તેને પાપ કરવા પ્રેર્યો હતો.
हिन्दीनहेम्याह १३:२६
क्या इस्राएल का राजा सुलैमान इसी प्रकार के पाप में न फँसा था? बहुतेरी जातियों में उसके तुल्य कोई राजा नहीं हुआ, और वह अपने परमेश्वर का प्रिय भी था, और परमेश्वर ने उसे सारे इस्राएल के ऊपर राजा नियुक्त किया; परन्तु उसको भी अन्यजाति स्त्रियों ने पाप में फँसाया।
