1 Kings 15:3-5
New King James Version
3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him; (A)his heart was not [a]loyal to the Lord his God, as was the heart of his father David. 4 Nevertheless (B)for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, by setting up his son after him and by establishing Jerusalem; 5 because David (C)did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, and had not turned aside from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, (D)except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.

1 Kings 15:3-5
New International Version
3 He committed all the sins his father had done before him; his heart was not fully devoted(A) to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his forefather had been. 4 Nevertheless, for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp(B) in Jerusalem by raising up a son to succeed him and by making Jerusalem strong. 5 For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord and had not failed to keep(C) any of the Lord’s commands all the days of his life—except in the case of Uriah(D) the Hittite.
