2 Chronicles 13:9

Compare all

7 Then ^aworthless rogues gathered to him, and strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was ^byoung and inexperienced and could not withstand them.

8 And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the Lord, which is in the hand of the sons of David; and you are a great multitude, and with you are the gold calves which Jeroboam ^amade for you as gods.

9 ^aHave you not cast out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests, like the peoples of other lands, ^bso that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of ^cthings that are not gods?

10 But as for us, the Lord is our ^aGod, and we have not forsaken Him; and the priests who minister to the Lord are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites attend to their duties.

11 ^aAnd they burn to the Lord every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense; they also set the ^bshowbread in order on the pure gold table, and the lampstand of gold with its lamps ^cto burn every evening; for we keep the command of the Lord our God, but you have forsaken Him.

12 Now look, God Himself is with us as our ^ahead, ^band His priests with sounding trumpets to sound the alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the Lord God of your fathers, for you shall not prosper!”
