1 Kings 2:2-4
Living Bible
2 “I am going where every man on earth must some day go. I am counting on you to be a strong and worthy successor. 3 Obey the laws of God and follow all his ways; keep each of his commands written in the law of Moses so that you will prosper in everything you do, wherever you turn. 4 If you do this, then the Lord will fulfill the promise he gave me, that if my children and their descendants watch their step and are faithful to God, one of them shall always be the king of Israel—my dynasty will never end.

2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth,”(A) he said. “So be strong,(B) act like a man, 3 and observe(C) what the Lord your God requires: Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses. Do this so that you may prosper(D) in all you do and wherever you go 4 and that the Lord may keep his promise(E) to me: ‘If your descendants watch how they live, and if they walk faithfully(F) before me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a successor on the throne of Israel.’
