1 Kings 11:32–38

³²but one tribe will remain his because of my servant David ⁿand because of Jerusalem, the city I chose out of all the tribes of Israel. ^o33For they have abandoned Me; they have bowed the knee to Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, to Chemosh, the god of Moab, and to Milcom, the god of the Ammonites. ^pThey have not walked in My ways to do what is right in My eyes and to carry out My statutes and My judgments as his father David did. ^q

³⁴“ ‘However, I will not take the whole kingdom from his hand but will let him be ruler all the days of his life because of My servant David, whom I chose and who kept My commands and My statutes. ³⁵I will take 10 tribes of the kingdom from his son’s hand and give them to you. ³⁶I will give one tribe ^rto his son, ^sso that My servant David will always have a lamp before Me ^tin Jerusalem, the city I chose for Myself to put My name there. ^u37I will appoint you, ^vand you will reign as king ^wover all you want, ^xand you will be king over Israel.

³⁸“ ‘After that, if you obey all I command you, walk in My ways, and do what is right in My sight in order to keep My statutes and My commands as My servant David did, I will be with you. ^yI will build you a lasting dynasty just as I built for David, ^zand I will give you Israel.
