^12 (A)“When your days are fulfilled and you ^(B)rest with your fathers, ^(C)I will set up your seed after you, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.

⁴ that the Lord may ^(A)fulfill His word which He spoke concerning me, saying, ^(B)‘If your sons take heed to their way, to ^(C)walk before Me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul,’ He said, ^(D)‘you shall not lack a man on the throne of Israel.’

⁵ then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, ^(A)as I promised David your father, saying, ‘You shall not fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.’

¹⁶ Therefore, Lord God of Israel, now keep what You promised Your servant David my father, saying, ^(A)‘You shall not fail to have a man sit before Me on the throne of Israel, ^(B)only if your sons take heed to their way, that they walk in My law as you have walked before Me.’

¹⁸ then I will establish the throne of your kingdom, as I covenanted with David your father, saying, ^(A)‘You shall not fail to have a man as ruler in Israel.’

⁷ Yet the Lord would not destroy the house of David, because of the ^(A)covenant that He had made with David, and since He had promised to give a lamp to him and to his ^(B)sons forever.
