11 Solomon brought the daughter of Pharaoh up from the City of David to the palace he had built for her. For he said, “My wife must not live in the house of David king of Israel, because the places the ark of the LORD has entered are holy.”
12 At that time Solomon offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of the LORD he had built in front of the portico.
