7 At that time Hanani the prophet visited King Asa of Judah and said to him: |Because you relied on the king of Syria and did not rely on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Syria has escaped from your hand. 8 Did not the Cushites and Libyans have a huge army with chariots and a very large number of horsemen? But when you relied on the LORD, he handed them over to you! 9 Certainly the LORD watches the whole earth carefully and is ready to strengthen those who are devoted to him. You have acted foolishly in this matter; from now on you will have war. 2 Chronicles 16:7-9, New English Translation. Copyright © 1996-2017 by Biblical Studies Press.
