2 Chronicles 29:9 in Context — 2 Chronicles 29

7 E ainda fecharam as portas do pórtico, e apagaram as lâmpadas; não queimaram incenso, nem sacrificaram holocausto no santuário ao Deus de Israel.

8 Portanto a ira do SENHOR veio sobre Judá e Jerusalém, e os entregou à aflição, ao espanto, e ao escárnio, como vedes vós com vossos olhos.

9 E eis que nossos pais caíram à espada, nossos filhos e nossas filhas e nossas mulheres estão em cativeiro por isso.

10 Agora, pois, eu determinei fazer aliança com o SENHOR o Deus de Israel, para que afaste de nós a ira de seu furor.

11 Filhos meus, não vos enganeis agora, porque o SENHOR vos escolheu para que estejais diante dele, e lhe sirvais, e sejais seus ministros, e lhe queimeis incenso.
