2 Chronicles 20:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Didst not thou our God cast out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and [a]gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend forever?
8 And they dwelt therein, and have built thee a Sanctuary therein for thy Name, saying,
9 (A)If evil come upon us, as the [b]sword of judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house and in thy presence (for thy name [c]is in this house) and will cry unto thee in our tribulation, and thou wilt hear and help.
