35But I will take the kingdome out of his sonnes hand, and will giue it vnto thee, euen ten tribes. 36And vnto his sonne will I giue one tribe, that Dauid my seruant may haue a light alway before me in Ierusalem, the citie which I haue chosen me to put my Name there. 37And I will take thee, and thou shalt reigne according to all that thy soule desireth, and shalt be King ouer Israel. 38And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken vnto all that I command thee, and wilt walke in my wayes, and doe that is right in my sight, to keepe my Statutes and my Commandements, as Dauid my seruant did; that I will be with thee, and build thee a sure house, as I built for Dauid, and will giue Israel vnto thee. 39And I will for this afflict the seed of Dauid, but not for euer.
