1 Kings 11:34-39

³⁴Nevertheless, I will not take the whole kingdom out of Solomon’s hand, because I have made him ruler all the days of his life for the sake of David My servant, whom I chose because he kept My commandments and statutes.

³⁵But I will take ten tribes of the kingdom from the hand of his son and give them to you.

³⁶I will give one tribe to his son, so that My servant David will always have a lamp before Me in Jerusalem, the city where I chose to put My Name.

³⁷But as for you, I will take you, and you shall reign over all that your heart desires, and you will be king over Israel.

³⁸If you listen to all that I command you, walk in My ways, and do what is right in My sight in order to keep My statutes and commandments as My servant David did, then I will be with you. I will build you a lasting dynasty just as I built for David, and I will give Israel to you.

³⁹Because of this, I will humble David’s descendants — but not forever.’”
