1 Kings 11:11-13 ▼

11 Then the LORD said to Solomon, “Since you have done this and did not keep My covenant and My statutes, which I commanded you, I will tear the kingdom away from you and give it to your servant.

12 However, I will not do it during your lifetime because of your father David; I will tear it out of your son’s hand.

13 Yet I will not tear the entire kingdom away from him. I will give one tribe to your son because of my servant David and because of Jerusalem that I chose.”
