Were not (D)the Ethiopians and (E)the Libyans a huge army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet (F)because you relied on the Lord, he gave them into your hand. (G)For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those (H)whose heart is blameless[a] toward him. (I)You have done foolishly in this, for from now on (J)you will have wars.”
