The words of the Lord is unfailing

1 Kings 9:1-28
The Lord appeared to Solomon a second time, when he had achieved all he had desired to do.
The Lord said to Solomon, " I have heard the prayer and plea you have made before me; I have consecrated this temple, which you have built, by putting my Name there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there."
The Lord once again said to Solomon the two consequences: 1)if you walk before me in integrity of heart and uprightness, 2) if you or your sons turn away from me and do not observe the commands and decrees I have given you and go off to serve other gods and worship them.
Solomon built the temple and the royal palace, at the end of twenty years. Solomon forced labor to do those work, all of the people left from the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusite.
