2 Chronicles 7:17-22

17And as for thee, if thou wilt walkH1980 before me as DavidH1732 thy fatherH1 walkedH1980, and do according to all that I have commandedH6680 thee, and wilt keepH8104 my statutesH2706 and mine ordinancesH4941; 18then I will establishH6965 the throneH3678 of thy kingdomH4438, according as I covenanted with DavidH1732 thy fatherH1, sayingH559, There shall not fail thee a manH376 to be rulerH4910 in IsraelH3478.

19But if ye turnH7725 awayH7725, and forsakeH5800 my statutesH2708 and my commandmentsH4687 which I have setH5414 before you, and shall goH1980 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worship them; 20then will I pluckH5428 them up by the roots out of my landH127 which I have givenH5414 them; and this houseH1004, which I have hallowed for my nameH8034, will I castH7993 out of my sight, and I will makeH5414 it a proverbH4912 and a bywordH4912 among all peoplesH5971. 21And this houseH1004, which is so high, every oneH2088 that passeth by it shall beH1961 astonished, and shall sayH559, WhyH4100 hath Jehovah done thusH3602 unto this landH776, and to this houseH1004? 22And they shall answer, Because they forsook Jehovah, the GodH430 of their fathersH1, who broughtH935 them forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and laid holdH2388 on otherH312 godsH430, and worshipped them, and servedH5647 them: thereforeH3651 hath he broughtH935 all this evilH7451 upon them.
