1 Kings 11:9-13
New American Standard Bible
9 Now (A)the Lord was angry with Solomon (B)because his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, (C)who had appeared to him twice, 10 and (D)had commanded him regarding this thing, that he was not to follow other gods; but he did not comply with what the Lord had commanded. 11 So the Lord said to Solomon, “Since [a]you have done this, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have commanded you, (E)I will certainly tear the kingdom away from you, and will give it to your servant. 12 However, I will not do it in your days, only for the sake of your father David; but I will tear it away from the hand of your son. 13 Yet (F)I will not tear away all the kingdom, but (G)I will give one tribe to your son for the sake of My servant David, and (H)for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.”

1 Kings 11:9-13
Common English Bible
9 The Lord grew angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned away from being with the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice. 10 The Lord had commanded Solomon about this very thing, that he shouldn’t follow other gods. But Solomon didn’t do what the Lord commanded.
11 The Lord said to Solomon, “Because you have done all this instead of keeping my covenant and my laws that I commanded you, I will most certainly tear the kingdom from you and give it to your servant. 12 Even so, on account of your father David, I won’t do it during your lifetime. I will tear the kingdom out of your son’s hands. 13 Moreover, I won’t tear away the entire kingdom. I will give one tribe to your son on account of my servant David and on account of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.”
