2 Chronicles 7:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 Then will I establish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I made the covenant with David thy father, saying, (A)Thou shalt not want a man to be ruler in Israel.
19 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them,
20 Then will I pluck them up out of my land, which I have given them, and this house which I have [a]sanctified for my Name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a common talk among all people.

2 Chronicles 7:18-20
New International Version
18 I will establish your royal throne, as I covenanted(A) with David your father when I said, ‘You shall never fail to have a successor(B) to rule over Israel.’(C)
19 “But if you[a] turn away(D) and forsake(E) the decrees and commands I have given you[b] and go off to serve other gods and worship them, 20 then I will uproot(F) Israel from my land,(G) which I have given them, and will reject this temple I have consecrated for my Name. I will make it a byword and an object of ridicule(H) among all peoples.
