2 Kings 17:28-33

28Then oneH259 of the priestsH3548 whom they had carried away from SamariaH8111 cameH935 and abode in Bethel, and taughtH3384 them howH349 they should fearH3372 Jehovah.

29And every nationH1471 madeH6213 1godsH430 of their own, and put them in the housesH1004 of the highH1116 placesH1116 that the Samaritans had madeH6213, every nationH1471 in their citiesH5892 in which they dweltH3427.

30And the people of BabylonH894 madeH6213 Succoth-benoth, and the people of Cuth madeH6213 Nergal, and the people of HamathH2574 madeH6213 Ashima,

31and the Avvites madeH6213 Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnedH8313 their children in the fireH784 to AdrammelechH152 and Anammelech the 2gods of SepharvaimH5617.

32So they fearedH3372 Jehovah, and madeH6213 to themselves from all classes of them priestsH3548 of the highH1116 placesH1116, who offered [sacrifices] for them in the housesH1004 of the highH1116 placesH1116.

33They fearedH3372 Jehovah, and servedH5647 their own 3godsH430 after the manner of the nationsH1471, whence they had beenH1961 carried away.
