³³ I will do this because they have^[a] forsaken me and worshiped^(A) Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Molek the god of the Ammonites, and have not walked^(B) in obedience to me, nor done what is right in my eyes, nor kept my decrees^(C) and laws as David, Solomon’s father, did.

³⁸ If you do whatever I command you and walk in obedience to me and do what is right^(A) in my eyes by obeying my decrees^(B) and commands, as David my servant did, I will be with you. I will build you a dynasty^(C) as enduring as the one I built for David and will give Israel to you.

⁵ For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord and had not failed to keep^(A) any of the Lord’s commands all the days of his life—except in the case of Uriah^(B) the Hittite.
