Verse 7 is found in chapter 20 of 2 Chronicles. Jehoshaphat prays in the temple, recalling God’s sovereignty, the promise given to Abraham, and Israel’s historical protection. He acknowledges that Judah lacks sufficient strength against the enemy and declares that their eyes are upon God. The prayer turns a military crisis into a collective expression of covenant dependence.

Hast du, unser Gott, nicht die Einwohner dieses Landes vertrieben vor deinem Volk Israel und hast es gegeben dem Samen Abrahams, deines Liebhabers, ewiglich,

Dios nuestro, ¿no expulsaste a los habitantes de esta tierra de delante de tu pueblo Israel y la diste para siempre a los descendientes de Abraham, tu amigo?
N'est-ce pas toi, ô notre Dieu, qui as chassé les habitants de ce pays devant ton peuple d'Israël, et qui l'as donné pour toujours à la postérité d'Abraham qui t'aimait?
Non hai tu, o Dio nostro, scacciati gli abitanti di questo paese d’innanzi al tuo popolo Israele? e non hai tu dato esso paese in perpetuo alla progenie d’Abrahamo, il quale ti amò?
Porventura, ó nosso Deus, não lançaste fora os moradores desta terra de diante do teu povo Israel, e não a deste para sempre à descendência de Abraão, teu amigo?
