Asa Imprisons the Prophet
7 At that time (A)Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him, “(B)Because you have relied on the king of Aram and have not relied on the Lord your God, for that reason the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand. 8 Were not (C)the Ethiopians and the Lubim (D)an immense army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet (E)because you relied on the Lord, He handed them over to you. 9 For (F)the eyes of the Lord roam throughout the earth, so that He may strongly support those (G)whose heart is completely His. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will have wars.”

New International Version
7 At that time Hanani(A) the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him: “Because you relied(B) on the king of Aram and not on the Lord your God, the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand. 8 Were not the Cushites[a](C) and Libyans a mighty army with great numbers(D) of chariots and horsemen[b]? Yet when you relied on the Lord, he delivered(E) them into your hand. 9 For the eyes(F) of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish(G) thing, and from now on you will be at war.(H)”
