2 Chronicles 24:18-20

Names of God Bible

¹⁸ They abandoned the temple of Yahweh Elohim of their ancestors and worshiped idols and the poles dedicated to the goddess Asherah. This offense of theirs brought Elohim’s anger upon Judah and Jerusalem.

¹⁹ Yahweh sent them prophets to bring them back to himself. The prophets warned them, but they wouldn’t listen. ²⁰ The Ruach Elohim gave Zechariah, son of the priest Jehoiada, strength. Zechariah stood in front of the people and said to them, “This is what Elohim says: Why are you breaking Yahweh’s commands? You won’t prosper that way! Yahweh has abandoned you because you have abandoned him.”
