2 Chronicles 15:3-6

English Standard Version

^3 (A)For a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest and without law, ^4 (B)but when in their distress they turned to the Lord, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found by them. ⁵ In those times there was no peace ^(C)to him who went out or to him who came in, for great disturbances afflicted all the inhabitants of the lands. ⁶ They were broken in pieces. Nation was crushed by nation and city by city, for God troubled them with every sort of distress.
