3He committed all the sins his father had done before him; his heart was not fully devoted to the LORD his God, as the heart of David his forefather had been. 4Nevertheless, for David’s sake the LORD his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem by raising up a son to succeed him and by making Jerusalem strong.
5For David had done what was right in the eyes of the LORD and had not failed to keep any of the LORD ’s commands all the days of his life—except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.
