2 Chronicles 25:15-17
Good News Translation
15 This made the Lord angry, so he sent a prophet to Amaziah. The prophet demanded, “Why have you worshiped foreign gods that could not even save their own people from your power?”
16 “Since when,” Amaziah interrupted, “have we made you adviser to the king? Stop talking, or I'll have you killed!”
The prophet stopped, but not before saying, “Now I know that God has decided to destroy you because you have done all this and have ignored my advice.”
