2 Chronicles 20:7

Our God, you drove out ¹  the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel and gave it as a permanent possession ²  to the descendants of your friend ³  Abraham.

Ge 12:7; Ge 13:15; Ge 17:7; Ex 6:7; Ex 19:5-7; Ex 20:2; Ex 33:2; Jos 24:3,13; 1Ch 17:21-24; 2Ch 14:11; Ne 9:8; Ps 44:2; Isa 41:8; Joh 11:11; Joh 15:15; Jas 2:23

¹ tn Heb “did you not drive out?” This is another rhetorical question which expects a positive response; see the note on the word “heaven” in the previous verse.

² tn Heb “permanently.”

³ tn Or perhaps “your covenantal partner.” See Isa 41:8.
