'Keep it for you' vs 'Keep it for yourself'

[Tom]

Hi

Could you please tell me which one of the following is better? Are both correct and natural?

1- Keep it for you.
2- Keep it for yourself.

Hi,

It depends whether the 'keeping' refers back to the subject as in:

You keep it for yourself.

I'll keep it for you.

Thanks Alan

...what if I substitute with for for in my original sentences?

1- Keep it with you.
2- Keep it with yourself.

Hi Tom,

In that case you would only say 'with' you as the preposition 'with' is, as it were, more remote.
