1 Kings 9:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 (A)then I will cut off Israel from the land which I have given them, and (B)the house which I have set apart as holy for My name, I will [a]cast out of My presence. So (C)Israel will become a proverb and a byword among all peoples. 8 And this house will become [b](D)a heap of ruins; everyone who passes by will feel desolate and hiss and say, ‘(E)Why has Yahweh done thus to this land and to this house?’ 9 And they will say, ‘(F)Because they forsook Yahweh their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and took hold of other gods and worshiped them and served them, therefore Yahweh has brought all this calamity on them.’”
