1 Kings 11:36 in Context — 1 Kings 11

34 Porém não tirarei nada de seu reino de suas mãos, mas sim que o manterei por chefe todos os dias de sua vida, por amor de Davi meu servo, ao qual eu escolhi, e ele guardou meus mandamentos e meus estatutos:

35 Mas eu tirarei o reino da mão de seu filho, e o darei a ti, as dez tribos.

36 E a seu filho darei uma tribo, para que meu servo Davi tenha lâmpada todos os dias diante de mim em Jerusalém, cidade que eu me escolhi para pôr nela meu nome.

37 Eu pois te tomarei a ti, e tu reinarás em todas as coisas que desejar tua alma, e serás rei sobre Israel.

38 E será que, se prestares ouvido a todas as coisas que te mandar, e andares em meus caminhos, e fizeres o reto diante de meus olhos, guardando meus estatutos e meus mandamentos, como fez Davi meu servo, eu serei contigo, e te edificarei casa firme, como a edifiquei a Davi, e eu te entregarei a Israel.
