2 Chronicles 20:9
The sword - Or rather, the sword of judgement or of vengeance, that is, war, whereby thou punisheth thy people for their sins.
7 Are You not aour God, who bdrove out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel, and gave it to the descendants of Abraham cYour friend forever?
8 And they dwell in it, and have built You a sanctuary in it for Your name, saying,
9 a‘If disaster comes upon us—sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine—we will stand before this temple and in Your presence (for Your bname is in this temple), and cry out to You in our affliction, and You will hear and save.’
10 And now, here are the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir—whom You awould not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt, but bthey turned from them and did not destroy them—
11 here they are, rewarding us aby coming to throw us out of Your possession which You have given us to inherit.
