In context

1Now when Solomon had finished building the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and had achieved all that he had desired to do,

2The LORD appeared to him a second time, as He had appeared to him at Gibeon.

3And the LORD said to him: “I have heard your prayer and petition before Me. I have consecrated this temple, which you have built, by putting My Name there forever; My eyes and My heart will be there for all time.

4And as for you, if you walk before Me as your father David walked, with a heart of integrity and uprightness, doing all I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and ordinances,

5Then I will establish your royal throne over Israel forever, as I promised your father David when I said, ‘You will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.’
