2 Chronicles 20:7

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.

[20:7]  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.

[20:7]  ² tn Heb “permanently.”

[20:7]  ³ tn Or perhaps “your covenantal partner.” See Isa 41:8.
