1 Kings 11:34

---

← 1 Kings 11:33	1 Kings 11:34 (KJV)	1 Kings 11:35 →
Because that they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do [that which is] right in mine eyes, and [to keep] my statutes and my judgments, as [did] David his father.	Howbeit I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand: but I will make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, because he kept my commandments and my statutes:	But I will take the kingdom out of his son's hand, and will give it unto thee, [even] ten tribes.
