KJV - 1 Kings 9:5

Then I will establish the throne of thy kingdom upon Israel for ever, as I promised to David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man upon the throne of Israel.

Then I will create your kingdom's throne forever on Israel, just like I promised your dad David, by saying that there will always be someone from you sitting on Israel's throne.
