9:7 then I will remove Israel from the land11 I have given them, I will abandon this temple I have consecrated with my presence,12 and Israel will be mocked and ridiculed13 among all the nations.
tnHeb “I will cut off Israel from upon the surface of the land.”

tnHeb “and the temple which I consecrated for my name I will send away from before my face.”
sn Instead of “I will send away,” the parallel text in 2 Chr 7:20 has “I will throw away.” The two verbs sound very similar in Hebrew, so the discrepancy is likely due to an oral transmissional error.
13
tnHeb “will become a proverb and a taunt,” that is, a proverbial example of destruction and an object of reproach.
