2 Chronicles 16:9 in Context — 2 Chronicles 16
7 Naquele tempo veio Hanani vidente a Asa rei de Judá, e disse-lhe: Por quanto te apoiaste no rei de Síria, e não te apoiaste no SENHOR teu Deus, por isso o exército do rei da Síria escapou de tuas mãos.
8 Os etíopes e os líbios, não eram um exército numerosíssimo, com carros e muitos cavaleiros? Contudo, porque te apoiaste no SENHOR, ele os entregou em tuas mãos.
9 Porque os olhos do SENHOR contemplam toda a terra, para corroborar aos que têm coração íntegro com ele. Loucamente fizeste nisso; porque de agora em diante haverá guerra contra ti.
10 E irou-se Asa contra o vidente, lançou-o na casa do cárcere, porque foi em extremo incomodado por causa disto. E oprimiu Asa naquele tempo alguns do povo.
11 Mas eis que, os feitos de Asa, primeiros e últimos, estão escritos no livro dos reis de Judá e de Israel.
