- Septuagint (Swete)
- ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῷ εἰς πατέρα καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσται μοι εἰς υἱόν, καὶ τὸ ἔλεός μου οὐκ ἀποστήσω ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ ὡς ἀπέστησα ἀπὸ τῶν ὄντων ἔμπροσθέν σου.

Haydock's commentary
Thee. The posterity of Saul lost the throne. (Haydock)
If Solomon was reprobated, his children were permitted to reign. It is also presumed that he did penance; though this is not certain.
