1 Kings 9:4-5

9:4 You must serve me with integrity and sincerity, just as your father David did. Do everything I commanded and obey my rules and regulations. ¹  9:5 Then I will allow your dynasty to rule over Israel permanently, ²  just as I promised your father David, ‘You will not fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.’ ³ 

¹ tn Heb “As for you, if you walk before me, as David your father walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, by doing all which I commanded you, [and] you keep my rules and my regulations.” Verse 4 is actually a lengthy protasis (“if” section) of a conditional sentence, the apodosis (“then” section) of which appears in v. 5.

² tn Heb “I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever.”

³ tn Heb “there will not be cut off from you a man from upon the throne of Israel.”
