2 Chronicles 16:9

כִּ֣י יְהוָ֡ה עֵינָ֣יו מְשֹׁטְטוֹת֩ בְּכָ֨ל הָ֜אָרֶץ לְ֠הִתְחַזֵּ֡ק עִ֠ם לְ֠בָבָ֡ם שָׁלֵ֡ם אֵ֠לָ֡יו נִ֠סְכַּלְתָּ֡ עַ֠ל זֹ֠את כִּ֠י מֵ֠עַתָּ֡ה יֵ֠שׁ עִמְּךָ֡ מִלְחָמֽוֹת׃
kiy yhvah ʿeynayv mshoṭṭvot bkal haʾareṣ lhitḥazeq ʿim lbabam shalem ʾelayv niskalta ʿal zoʾt kiy meʿatah yesh ʿimka milḥamvot
King James Version (KJV)

For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.

Modern English

For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward him. You have done foolishly in this, for from now on you will have wars.
