2 Kings 17:2-8

2And he did evilH7451 in the sight of Jehovah, but not as the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 that had beenH1961 before him.

3Against him came up ShalmaneserH8022 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, and HosheaH1954 becameH1961 his servantH5650, and tendered him presents.

4But the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 foundH4672 conspiracyH7195 in HosheaH1954; for he had sentH7971 messengersH4397 to So kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and sentH7971 up no present to the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 as [he had done] from yearH8141 to yearH8141. And the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 shutH6113 him up and boundH631 him in prison.

5And the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 overran the whole landH776, and wentH5927 up against SamariaH8111, and besieged it threeH7969 yearsH8141.

6In the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of HosheaH1954, the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 tookH3920 SamariaH8111, and carried IsraelH3478 away into AssyriaH804, and placed them in HalahH2477 and by the HaborH2249, the riverH5104 of GozanH1470, and in the citiesH5892 of the Medes.

7And so it wasH1961, because the children of IsraelH3478 had sinnedH2398 against Jehovah their 1GodH430, who had broughtH5927 them up out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 from under the handH3027 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and had fearedH3372 otherH312 2godsH430;

8and they walked in the statutesH2708 of the nationsH1471 that Jehovah had dispossessedH3423 from before the children of IsraelH3478, and of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478, which they had madeH6213.
