5a	1 Kgs. 9: 4. 4 And if thou wilt ^awalk before me, as ^bDavid thy father walked, in ^cintegrity of heart, and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments:
b	Deut. 17: 20. 20 That his heart be not lifted up above his ^abrethren, and that he ^bturn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his ^cchildren, in the midst of Israel.
c	2 Sam. 11: 3 (3-15). 3 And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this ^aBath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of ^bUriah the Hittite? 1 Kgs. 14: 8. 8 And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee: and yet thou hast not been as my servant ^aDavid, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes; D&C 132: 39. 39 ^aDavid’s wives and concubines were ^bgiven unto him of me, by the hand of Nathan, my servant, and others of the prophets who had the ^ckeys of this power; and in none of these things did he ^dsin against me save in the case of ^eUriah and his wife; and, therefore he hath ^ffallen from his exaltation, and received his portion; and he shall not inherit them out of the world, for I ^ggave them unto another, saith the Lord.
