Even as I sware unto thee by the LORD God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; even so will I certainly do this day.

Even as I sware {H7650} unto thee by the LORD {H3068} God {H430} of Israel {H3478}, saying {H559}, Assuredly Solomon {H8010} thy son {H1121} shall reign {H4427} after {H310} me, and he shall sit {H3427} upon my throne {H3678} in my stead; even so will I certainly do {H6213} this day {H3117}.

as I swore to you by ADONAI the God of Isra'el, 'Your son Shlomo will be king after me; he will sit on my throne in my place,' so will I do today."

I will carry out this very day exactly what I swore to you by the LORD, the God of Israel: Surely your son Solomon will reign after me, and he will sit on my throne in my place.”

verily as I sware unto thee by Jehovah, the God of Israel, saying, Assuredly Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead; verily so will I do this day.
