* Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon , Forasmuch as this is done of thee , and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes , which I have commanded thee , I will surely rend the kingdom from thee , and will give it to thy servant . * Notwithstanding in thy days I will not do it for David thy father 's sake : but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son . * Howbeit I will not rend away all the kingdom ; but will give one tribe to thy son for David my servant 's sake , and for Jerusalem 's sake which I have chosen .
