2 Chronicles 29:9 in Context — 2 Chronicles 29

7 Y aun cerraron las puertas del pórtico, y apagaron las lámparas; no quemaron perfume, ni sacrificaron holocausto en el santuario al Dios de Israel.

8 Por tanto la ira de Jehová ha venido sobre Judá y Jerusalem, y los ha entregado á turbación, y á execración y escarnio, como veis vosotros con vuestros ojos.

9 Y he aquí nuestros padres han caído á cuchillo, nuestros hijos y nuestras hijas y nuestras mujeres son cautivas por esto.

10 Ahora pues, yo he determinado hacer alianza con Jehová el Dios de Israel, para que aparte de nosotros la ira de su furor.

11 Hijos míos, no os engañéis ahora, porque Jehová os ha escogido á vosotros para que estéis delante de él, y le sirváis, y seáis sus ministros, y le queméis perfume.
