7Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel and give it forever to the offspring of Abraham, your friend?

9If disaster comes upon us—sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine—we will stand before this house and before you, for your name is in this house, and we will cry out to you from our distress, and you will hear and save.
