1Kings:9:7-9

*
Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them ;
and this house ,
which I have hallowed for my name ,
will I cast out of my sight ;
and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people :
*
And at this house ,
which is high ,
every one that passeth by it shall be astonished ,
and shall hiss ;
and they shall say ,
Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land ,
and to this house ?
*
And they shall answer ,
Because they forsook the LORD their God ,
who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt ,
and have taken hold upon other gods ,
and have worshipped them ,
and served them :
therefore hath the LORD brought upon them all this evil .
