Explained for Children
Imagine you have a friend who keeps breaking the rules and doesn't listen to your warnings. One day, you tell them that you'll give them a time-out if they don't start following the rules. But they don't listen, so you have to follow through. This verse is like that, but it's God telling a king and his family that they'll face consequences for not listening to Him.
