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

35But I will take the kingdom from the hand of his son and give it to you, the ten tribes.

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