1 Kings 9:8-9

8And when thisH2088 templeH1004 has becomeH1961 a heap of rubbleH5945,1 allH3605 who passH5674 by itH5921 will be appalledH8074 and will hissH8319 and sayH559, ‘WhyH5921H4100 has the LORDH3068 doneH6213 such a thingH3602 to thisH2063 landH776 and to thisH2088 templeH1004?’ 9And others will answerH559, ‘BecauseH5921 they have forsakenH5800 the LORDH3068 their GodH430 whoH834 broughtH3318 their fathersH1 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and have embracedH2388 otherH312 godsH430, worshipingH7812 and serving themH5647—because ofH5921 thisH3651, the LORDH3068 has broughtH935 allH3605 thisH2063 disasterH7451 upon themH5921.’”
