1 Kings 9:1-7

11Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961 when SolomonH8010 had finishedH3615 buildingH1129 the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 and 2the king’sH4428 houseH1004, and 3allH3605 4that SolomonH8010 desiredH2837H2654 to doH6213, 2that 5the LordH3068 appearedH7200 to SolomonH8010 a secondH8145 timeH8145, as He had appearedH7200 to him at GibeonH1391. 3And the LordH3068 saidH559 to him, “6I have heardH8085 your prayerH8605 and your pleaH8467 whichH834 you have offeredH2603 beforeH6440 Me; I have consecratedH6942 thisH2088 houseH1004 whichH834 you have builtH1129, 7by puttingH7760 My nameH8034 thereH8033 foreverH5704H5769, and 8My eyesH5869 and My heartH3820 will be thereH8033 9alwaysH3605H3117. 4As for you, 10ifH518 you walkH1980 beforeH6440 Me as your fatherH1 DavidH1732 walkedH1980, in integrityH8537 of heartH3824 and honestyH3476, actingH6213 in accordance with everythingH3605 that I have commandedH6680 you, and if you keepH8104 My statutesH2706 and My ordinancesH4941, 5then 11I will establishH6965 the throneH3678 of your kingdomH4467 overH5921 IsraelH3478 foreverH5769, justH3512 asH3512 I 12promisedH1696 to your fatherH1 DavidH1732, sayingH559, ‘13You shall not be deprivedH3772 of a manH376 on the throneH3678 of IsraelH3478.’

6“14But ifH518 you or your sonsH1121 indeedH7725 turnH7725 awayH7725 from followingH310 Me, and do not keepH8104 My commandmentsH4687 and My statutesH2708 whichH834 I have placedH5414 beforeH6440 you, but you goH1980 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430 and worshipH2331 them, 715then I will cutH3772 IsraelH3478 offH3772 from the landH127 whichH834 I have givenH5414 them, and 16the houseH1004 whichH834 I have consecratedH6942 for My nameH8034, I will 17expelH7971 from My sightH6440. So 18IsraelH3478 will becomeH1961 a sayingH4912 and an objectH8148 ofH8148 derisionH8148 among allH3605 peoplesH5971.
