2 Chronicles 7:21 in Context — 2 Chronicles 7

19 Mas se vós vos desviardes, e deixardes meus estatutos e meus preceitos que vos propus, e fordes e servirdes a deuses alheios, e os adorardes,

20 Eu os arrancarei de minha terra que lhes dei; e esta casa que ei santifiquei a meu nome, eu a lançarei de diante de mim, e a porei por provérbio e fábula em todos os povos.

21 E esta casa que haverá sido ilustre, será espanto a todo o que passar, e dirá: Por que há feito assim o SENHOR a esta terra e a esta casa?

22 E se responderá: Por quanto deixaram ao SENHOR Deus de seus pais, o qual os tirou da terra do Egito, e abraçaram deuses alheios, e os adoraram e serviram: por isso ele trouxe todo este mal sobre eles.
