But the highplaceswere not takenaway;neverthelessthe heartof Asawas whollydevotedto the LORDallhis days.
For whenSolomonwas old,his wivesturnedhis heartawayafterothergods;and his heartwas not whollydevotedto the LORDhis God,as the heartof Davidhis father[had been].
He walkedin allthe sinsof his fatherwhichhe had committedbeforehim; and his heartwas not whollydevotedto the LORDhis God,like the heartof his fatherDavid.
He walkedin allthe wayof Asahis father;he did not turnasidefrom it, doingrightin the sightof the LORD.However,the highplaceswere not takenaway;the peoplestillsacrificedand burntincenseon the highplaces.
The peoplewere stillsacrificingon the highplaces,becausethere was nohousebuiltfor the nameof the LORDuntilthosedays.
Now Solomonlovedthe LORD,walkingin the statutesof his fatherDavid,excepthe sacrificedand burnedincenseon the highplaces.
"Let your hearttherefore be whollydevotedto the LORDour God,to walkin His statutesand to keepHis commandments,as at thisday."
Onlythe highplaceswere not takenaway;the peoplestillsacrificedand burnedincenseon the highplaces.
for he removedthe foreignaltarsand highplaces,toredownthe [sacred] pillars,cutdownthe Asherim,
He also removedthe highplacesand the incensealtarsfrom allthe citiesof Judah.And the kingdomwas undisturbedunderhim.
"For the eyesof the LORDmoveto and frothroughoutthe earththat He may stronglysupportthose whose heartis completelyHis. You have actedfoolishlyin this.Indeed,from nowon you will surely havewars."
He didrightin the sightof the LORD,yetnot with a wholeheart.
