## 2 Chronicles 7:17 in Context (Verses 14–20 KJV)
 
 [14 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/14) If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.*
 
 [15 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/15) Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer *that is made* in this place.*
 
 [16 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/16) For now have I chosen and sanctified this house, that my name may be there for ever: and mine eyes and mine heart shall be there perpetually.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/17) And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me, as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and shalt observe my statutes and my judgments;
 
 [18 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/18) Then will I stablish the throne of thy kingdom, according as I have covenanted with David thy father, saying, There shall not fail thee a man *to be* ruler in Israel.*
 
 [19 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/19) But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them;
 
 [20 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/20) Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it *to be* a proverb and a byword among all nations.
