I have an on-line bible now ...
And I still can't find the scripture that says something to the effect that if you leave god he will leave you.
Please help?
Thanks

If I recall it was something along the lines of "fore saking" Jehovah or denying his name. Hope this is helpful.
I do have the 2001 CD at home and could do a further search later there.

1 Chronicles 28:20:
"And you, Sol´o·mon my son, know the God of your father and serve him with a complete heart and with a delightful soul; for all hearts Jehovah is searching, and every inclination of the thoughts he is discerning. If you search for him, he will let himself be found by you; but if you leave him, he will cast you off forever.
Thanks for the help!
Much appreciated.

Hey estee, could you post that link to your on-line bible? Thanks.
Try www.blueletterbible.org for a decent online resource. I like the comparative versions available and the reasonable search engine.

Hey Narkissos, I've just looked at that verse in Hebrew and it reads nothing like the NWT. A more suitable translation would be "...not fail you...until the work on the house of the Lord is completed." Take a look, the NWT rendering is so far off its scary. So, well done for spotting a uniquely NWT rendering!

Never mind now, I see you're looking at 1 Chron. 20 verse 9, not verse 20...
Wow, that got scary for a moment...

Oh yes, I mistyped the reference!!! It's actually 28:9.
sorry for the delay ... I don't visit jwd as often as I used to ...
http://www.biblegateway.com/ is an on-line bible and you can choose from several translations.
