1 Kings 14:9

“because they have forsaken me and worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Molek the god of the Ammonites, and have not followed my ways, to do what is right in my eyes and keep my statutes and laws, as David your father did.”

Links to the idolatry of Jeroboam and departure from God's commands.

“Judah did evil in the eyes of the Lord. By the sins they committed they stirred up his jealous anger more than their ancestors had done.”

“For I know that after my death you are sure to become utterly corrupt and to turn from the way I have commanded you. In days to come, disaster will fall on you because you will do evil in the sight of the Lord and arouse his anger by what your hands have made.”

Connects to the prophecy of Israel turning away from God and facing consequences.

“But they were disobedient and rebelled against you; they turned their backs on your law. They killed your prophets, who had admonished them in order to turn them back to you; they committed awful blasphemies.”

Relates to the broader theme of Israel's rebellion and rejection of God's word.

“But they did not listen or pay attention; instead, they followed the stubborn inclinations of their evil hearts. They went backward and not forward.”
