New American Standard Bible (NASB)
2 Chronicles 7
18 then I will establish your royal throne as I covenanted with your father David, saying, ’You shall not lack a man to be ruler in Israel.’
19 "But if you turn away and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you, and go and serve other gods and worship them,
20 then I will uproot you from My land which I have given you, and this house which I have consecrated for My name I will cast out of My sight and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.
21 As for this house, which was exalted, everyone who passes by it will be astonished and say, ’Why has the Lord done thus to this land and to this house?’
22 And they will say, ’Because they forsook the Lord, the God of their fathers who brought them from the land of Egypt, and they adopted other gods and worshiped them and served them; therefore He has brought all this adversity on them.’"
2 Chronicles 8
1 Now it came about at the end of the twenty years in which Solomon had built the house of the Lord and his own house
2 that he built the cities which Huram had given to him, and settled the sons of Israel there.
3 Then Solomon went to Hamath-zobah and captured it.
4 He built Tadmor in the wilderness and all the storage cities which he had built in Hamath.
5 He also built upper Beth-horon and lower Beth-horon, fortified cities with walls, gates and bars;
6 and Baalath and all the storage cities that Solomon had, and all the cities for his chariots and cities for his horsemen, and all that it pleased Solomon to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land under his rule.
