(Some words not found in UHB: that/for/because/then/when for_~_sake Dāvid's he/it_gave YHWH his/its=god to=him/it lamp in/on/at/with,Jerusalem by,raising_up DOM his/its=son after,him and,by,establishing DOM Yərūshālayim/(Jerusalem) )
The word “lamp” here represents a descendant who would be king as David was. Alternate translation: “gave David a descendant to rule in Jerusalem”

15:1-8 The author of 1 & 2 Kings describes the reign of each king of Judah in a typical pattern: the date of his accession in chronological relationship to the current king of the other kingdom (15:1), the length of his reign, the name of his mother (15:2), a spiritual evaluation of his character (15:3-5), details of his reign (15:6-7), sources where further data about him could be found (15:7), where he was buried, and his successor’s name (15:8).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
