34. However, I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand; but I will make him ruler all the days of his life for David My servant's sake, whom I chose because he kept My commandments and My statutes.
35. But I will take the kingdom out of his son's hand and give it to you, ten tribes.
36. Yet to his son I will give one tribe, that David My servant may always have a light before Me in Jerusalem, the city where I have chosen to put My Name.
37. And I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires; and you shall be king over Israel.
38. And if you will hearken to all I command you and will walk in My ways and do right in My sight, keeping My statutes and My commandments, as David My servant did, I will be with you and build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel to you.
39. And I will for this afflict the descendants of David, but not forever.
