1 Kings 11:32-36

32but one tribe shall he have for my servant David's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel:

33because they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the 1goddess of the Zidonians, Chemosh the 2god of the Moabites, and Milcom the 3god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my sight, and my statutes and mine ordinances, as David his father.

34But I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand; for I will make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes;

35but I will take the kingdom out of his son's hand, and will give it unto thee, — the ten tribes.

36And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen for myself to put my name there.
