## 2 Chronicles 7:23 in Context (Verses 20–22 KJV)
 
 [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.
 
 [21 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/21) And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house?
 
 [22 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/7/22) And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them.
 
[2 Chronicles 6](/kjv/2-chronicles/6) [2 Chronicles 8](/kjv/2-chronicles/8)
