2 Chronicles 29:8-10

Lexham English Bible

⁸ And the wrath of Yahweh was upon Judah and Jerusalem. And he made them as an abhorrence, as a desolation and an object of scorn, as you see with your own eyes. ⁹ Now behold, our fathers have fallen by the sword, and our sons and our daughters and our wives are in captivity on account of this. ¹⁰ Now it is in my heart^[a] to make^[b] a covenant with Yahweh, the God of Israel, so that his fierce anger might turn away from him.
