| II Chronicles 16:9
| For the eyes of the Lord behold all the earth, and give strength to those who with a perfect heart trust in him. Wherefore, thou hast done foolishly; and for this cause, from this time wars shall arise against thee.
| Behold. Protestants, "run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards him." Septuagint, "to shew power in every heart full, or perfect, in his regard." (Haydock) --- Asa fell on this occasion through human frailty, but rose again by repentance. --- Thee, as they were till the death of Baasa, 3 Kings 15:32.
