Ora dunque, Signore Iddio di Israele, osserva al tuo servitore Davide, mio padre, ciò che tu gli hai detto; cioè: Ei non ti verrà giammai meno, dal mio cospetto, uomo che segga in sul trono d’Israele; purchè i tuoi figliuoli prendano guardia alla via loro, per camminare davanti a me, come tu sei camminato.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Therefore now, Lord God of Israel, keep with thy servant David my father that thou promisedst him,.... That as he had fulfilled one part of his promise respecting himself, his immediate successor, so that he would fulfil the other respecting his more remote offspring:

saying, there shall not fail thee a man in my sight, to sit on the throne of Israel; one of David's posterity to inherit his throne and kingdom, but with this proviso:

so that thy children takes heed to their way; in what way they walk, and how they walk in it:

that they walk before me as thou hast walked before me; meaning as David walked, see Psalms 132:11.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Solomon’s prayer is, perhaps, generally for the fulfillment of all the promises made to David in connection with the building of the temple. But there seems to be special allusion in this verse to the promise recorded in Psalms 132:14.
