Therefore, Lord God of Israel, keep what you promised to your servant, my father David: ‘You will never fail to have a man to sit before me on the throne of Israel, if only your sons take care to walk in my Law as you have walked before me.’
and so that the Lord will fulfil his promise that he made to me: “If your sons take care to walk faithfully before me with all their heart and all their soul, you will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.”
