2 Chronicles 7:21 in Context — 2 Chronicles 7
19 Mais si vous vous détournez, si vous abandonnez mes lois et mes commandements que je vous ai prescrits, et si vous allez servir d’autres dieux et vous prosterner devant eux,
20 je vous arracherai de mon pays que je vous ai donné, je rejetterai loin de moi cette maison que j’ai consacrée à mon nom, et j’en ferai un sujet de sarcasme et de raillerie parmi tous les peuples.
21 Et si haut placée qu’ait été cette maison, quiconque passera près d’elle sera dans l’étonnement, et dira: Pourquoi l’Éternel a-t-il ainsi traité ce pays et cette maison?
22 Et l’on répondra: Parce qu’ils ont abandonné l’Éternel, le Dieu de leurs pères, qui les a fait sortir du pays d’Égypte, parce qu’ils se sont attachés à d’autres dieux, se sont prosternés devant eux et les ont servis; voilà pourquoi il a fait venir sur eux tous ces maux.
