2 Kings 17:1-7
1In the twelfthH8147H6240 yearH8141 of AhazH271 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, 1HosheaH1954 the sonH1121 of ElahH425 becameH4427 kingH4427 overH5921 IsraelH3478 in SamariaH8111, and reigned nineH8672 yearsH8141. 2He didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, onlyH7534 not as the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 were beforeH6440 him. 32ShalmaneserH8022 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 cameH5927 up 3againstH5921 him, and HosheaH1954 becameH1961 his servantH5650 and paidH7725 him tributeH4503. 4But the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 foundH4672 conspiracyH7195 in HosheaH1954, whoH834 had sentH7971 messengersH4397 to SoH5471 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 and had offeredH5927 noH3808 tributeH4503 to the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, as he had done yearH8141 by yearH8141; so the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 shutH6113 him up and boundH631 him in prisonH1004H3608.
5Then the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 invadedH5927 the wholeH3605 landH776 and wentH5927 up to 4SamariaH8111 and besiegedH6696H5921 it threeH7969 yearsH8141. 6In the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of HosheaH1954, 5the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 capturedH3920 SamariaH8111 and 6carriedH1540 IsraelH3478 awayH1540 into exileH1540 to AssyriaH804, and 7settledH3427 them in HalahH2477 and HaborH2249, on the riverH5104 of 8GozanH1470, and 9in the citiesH5892 of the MedesH4074.
7Now 10this cameH1961 about becauseH3588 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 had sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068 their GodH430, 11who had broughtH5927 them up from the landH776 of EgyptH4714 from underH8478 the handH3027 of PharaohH6547, kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, 12and they had 13fearedH3372 otherH312 godsH430
