Halakha 2 Samuel 7:26: Mishneh Torah, Kings and Wars

וְיִגְדַּ֨ל שִׁמְךָ֤ עַד־עוֹלָם֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת אֱלֹהִ֖ים עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּבֵית֙ עַבְדְּךָ֣ דָוִ֔ד יִהְיֶ֥ה נָכ֖וֹן לְפָנֶֽיךָ׃

Kiranya nama-Mu menjadi besar untuk selama-lamanya, sehingga orang berkata: Yang Mahakekal semesta alam adalah Allah atas Israel. Dan kiranya keluarga hamba-Mu Daud tetap kokoh di hadapan-Mu.

Mishneh Torah, Kings and Wars

The monarchy remains with the House of David forever, as it says, “your throne shall be established forever” (II Samuel 7:16). In contrast, if a king from (any of the other tribes of) Israel is appointed, the monarchy will cease from his House, as it says with regard to Jeraboam, “but not for all the days” (I Kings 11:39).
