35 But I will take the kingdom away from his son, and I will allow you to rule over the ten tribes.
36 I will allow Solomon’s son to continue to rule over one tribe so that there will always be a descendant of David, my servant, in Jerusalem, the city where I chose to be worshiped.
37 But I will make you rule over everything you want. You will rule over all of Israel,
38 and I will always be with you if you do what I say is right. You must obey all my commands. If you obey my laws and commands as David did, I will be with you. I will make your family a lasting family of kings, as I did for David, and give Israel to you.
39 I will punish David’s children because of this, but I will not punish them forever.’ ”
40 Solomon tried to kill Jeroboam, but he ran away to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, where he stayed until Solomon died.
41 Everything else King Solomon did, and the wisdom he showed, is written in the book of the history of Solomon.
