Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord Jehovah, and thou becamest mine.

1 Kings 12 26-1 Kings 12 33
And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now will the kingdom return to the house of David:if this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of Jehovah at Jerusalem, then will the heart of this people turn again unto their lord, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah; and they will kill me, and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold; and he said unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.And he set the one in Beth- el, and the other put he in Dan.And this thing became a sin; for the people went to worship before the one, even unto Dan.And he made houses of high places, and made priests from among all the people, that were not of the sons of Levi.And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he went up unto the altar; so did he in Beth- el, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Beth- el the priests of the high places that he had made.And he went up unto the altar which he had made in Beth- el on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and went up unto the altar, to burn incense.

Jeremiah 2:2-3
Go, and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith Jehovah, I remember for thee the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals; how thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.Israel was holiness unto Jehovah, the first- fruits of his increase: all that devour him shall be held guilty; evil shall come upon them, saith Jehovah.

Psalms 45:11-16
So will the king desire thy beauty; For he is thy lord; and reverence thou him.And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; The rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.The king’s daughter within the palace is all glorious: Her clothing is inwrought with gold.She shall be led unto the king in broidered work: The virgins her companions that follow her Shall be brought unto thee.With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led: They shall enter into the king’s palace.Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, Whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth.
