1 Kings 9:7-9 ▼

7 then I will cut off Israel from the face of the land that I have given them, and this house that I have consecrated for My name I will cast out of My sight, and Israel will be a proverb and a byword among all the peoples.

8 And this house has become a heap of rubble; everyone who passes by it will be appalled and will hiss and say, ‘Upon what has YHWH done thus to this land and to this house?’

9 And they will answer, ‘Upon that they have forsaken YHWH their God who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and they have embraced other gods and worshiped them and served them. Upon thus YHWH has brought on them all this calamity.’”
