18. then I will establish your royal throne as I covenanted with your father David saying, ‘You shall not lack a man to be ruler in Israel.’
19. But if you turn away and forsake My decrees and My mitzvot that I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them,
20. then I will uproot them from My land which I gave them, and this House which I have consecrated for My Name I will cast out of My sight. I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
