1 Kings 9:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel forever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, (A)Thou shalt not want a man upon the throne of Israel.
6 But if ye and your children turn away from me, and will [a]not keep my Commandments, and my statutes (which I have set before you) but go and serve other gods, and worship them,
7 Then will I cut off Israel from the land, which I have given them, and the house which I have hallowed (B)for my Name, will I cast out of my sight, and Israel shall be a [b]proverb, and a common talk among all people.

New International Version
5 I will establish(A) your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised David your father when I said, ‘You shall never fail(B) to have a successor on the throne of Israel.’
6 “But if you[a] or your descendants turn away(C) from me and do not observe the commands and decrees I have given you[b] and go off to serve other gods(D) and worship them, 7 then I will cut off Israel from the land(E) I have given them and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name.(F) Israel will then become a byword(G) and an object of ridicule(H) among all peoples.
