That the LORD may continue his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne of Israel.
So that the LORD can keep his promise about me, he said if my children listen and follow the right path with all their hearts and souls, one of them will always have a place on the throne of Israel.
