15They rejectedH3988 His statutesH2706 and the covenantH1285 He had madeH3772 withH854 their fathersH1, as well as the decreesH5715 He had givenH5749 them.

They bowed down toH7812 allH3605 the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 and servedH5647 BaalH1168. 17They sacrificedH5674 their sonsH1121 and daughtersH1323 in the fireH7841 and practicedH7080 divinationH7081 and soothsayingH5172.
