2 Chronicles 7:16 in Context — 2 Chronicles 7
14 Se se humilhar meu povo, sobre os quais nem nome é invocado, e orarem, e buscarem meu rosto, e se converterem de seus maus caminhos; então eu ouvirei desde os céus, e perdoarei seus pecados, e sararei sua terra.
15 Agora estarão abertos meus olhos, e atentos meus ouvidos, à oração em este lugar:
16 Pois que agora escolhi e santifiquei esta casa, para que esteja nela meu nome para sempre; e meus olhos e meu coração estarão aí para sempre.
17 E tu, se andares diante de mim, como andou Davi teu pai, e fizeres todas as coisas que eu te ei mandado, e guardares meus estatutos e meus direitos,
18 Eu confirmarei o trono de teu reino, como estabeleci com Davi teu pai, dizendo: Não faltará homem de ti que domine em Israel.
