2 Chronicles 16:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 Were not (A)the Ethiopians and the Lubim (B)a vast military force with an exceedingly vast number of chariots and horsemen? Yet (C)because you leaned on Yahweh, He gave them into your hand. 9 For (D)the eyes of Yahweh move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those (E)whose heart is wholly devoted to Him. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will surely have wars.” 10 Then Asa was vexed with the seer and put him in [a]prison, for he was enraged at him for this. And Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.

New International Version
8 Were not the Cushites[a](A) and Libyans a mighty army with great numbers(B) of chariots and horsemen[b]? Yet when you relied on the Lord, he delivered(C) them into your hand. 9 For the eyes(D) of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish(E) thing, and from now on you will be at war.(F)”
10 Asa was angry with the seer because of this; he was so enraged that he put him in prison.(G) At the same time Asa brutally oppressed some of the people.
