1 Kings 9:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 “(A)But if you or your sons indeed turn away from following Me, and do not keep My commandments and My statutes which I have given before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them, 7 (B)then I will cut off Israel from the land which I have given them, and (C)the house which I have set apart as holy for My name, I will [a]cast out of My presence. So (D)Israel will become a proverb and a byword among all peoples. 8 And this house will become [b](E)a heap of ruins; everyone who passes by will feel desolate and hiss and say, ‘(F)Why has Yahweh done thus to this land and to this house?’

6 “But if you[a] or your descendants turn away(A) from me and do not observe the commands and decrees I have given you[b] and go off to serve other gods(B) and worship them, 7 then I will cut off Israel from the land(C) I have given them and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name.(D) Israel will then become a byword(E) and an object of ridicule(F) among all peoples. 8 This temple will become a heap of rubble. All[c] who pass by will be appalled(G) and will scoff and say, ‘Why has the Lord done such a thing to this land and to this temple?’(H)
