35 and I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son and give it to you—ten tribes. 36 And to his son I will give one tribe, that there may be a lamp to David My servant all the days before Me in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen for Myself to put My name there. 37 And you I will take, and you shall reign over all that your heart desires, and you shall be king over Israel. 38 And it shall be, if you heed all that I command you, and walk in My ways, and do right in My eyes, to keep My statutes and My commandments as did David My servant, I will be with you and I will build for you an enduring house, as I built for David, and I will give to you Israel. 39 And I will afflict the seed of David on account of this, but not all the days.’” 40 And Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam, and Jeroboam arose and fled to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt; and he was in Egypt until the death of Solomon. 41 And the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written in the Book of the Acts of Solomon? 42 And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel were forty years. 43 And Solomon rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David his father. And Rehoboam his son reigned in his place. 1 Kings 11:35-43, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
