2 Chronicles 24:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁸ And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers and served groves and idols, and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for their guilt.

¹⁹ Yet he sent prophets to them to bring them again unto the LORD, and they testified against them, but they would not give ear.

²⁰ And the Spirit of God clothed himself in Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada, the priest, who being over the people, said unto them, Thus hath God said, Why do ye transgress the commandments of the LORD? Ye shall not prosper in this; for because ye have forsaken the LORD, he shall also forsake you.
