1 Kings 11:34-36

34Howbeit I will not takeH3947 the whole kingdomH4467 out of his handH3027: but I will makeH7896 him princeH5387 all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416 for DavidH1732 my servant’sH5650 sake, whom I choseH977, because he keptH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708:

35But I will takeH3947 the kingdomH4410 out of his son’sH1121 handH3027, and will giveH5414 it unto thee, even tenH6235 tribesH7626.

36And unto his sonH1121 will I giveH5414 oneH259 tribeH7626, that DavidH1732 my servantH5650 may have a lightH5216 alwayH3117 beforeH6440 me in JerusalemH3389, the cityH5892 which I have chosenH977 me to putH7760 my nameH8034 there.1
