2 Kings 17:13-18

13Yet the 1LordH3068 warnedH5749 IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063 23throughH3027 allH3605 His prophetsH5030 and 4everyH3605 seerH2374, sayingH559, “5TurnH7725 backH7725 from your evilH7451 waysH1870 and keepH8104 My commandmentsH4687 and My statutesH2708 in accordance with allH3605 the LawH8451 whichH834 I commandedH6680 your fathersH1, and whichH834 I sentH7971 to you 6throughH3027 My servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.” 14However, they did not listenH8085, but 7stiffenedH7185 their neckH6203 8like their fathersH1, whoH834 did not believeH539 in the LordH3068 their GodH430. 159They rejectedH3988 His statutesH2706 and 10His covenantH1285 whichH834 He madeH3772 with their fathersH1, and His warningsH5715 whichH834 He 11gaveH5749 them. And 12they followedH1980H310 13idolsH1892 and 14becameH1891 emptyH1891, and followedH310 the nationsH1471 that surroundedH5439 them, about whichH834 the 15LordH3068 had commandedH6680 them not to doH6213 as they did. 16And they abandonedH5800 allH3605 the commandmentsH4687 of the LordH3068 their GodH430 and madeH6213 for themselves castH4541 metalH4541 imagesH4541: 16twoH8147 calvesH5695. And they 17madeH6213 an 18AsherahH842, and 19worshipedH2331 allH3605 the heavenlyH8064 20lightsH6635, and 21servedH5647 BaalH1168. 17Then 22they made their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 passH5674 through the fireH784, and they 23practicedH7080 divinationH7081 and interpretingH5172 omensH5172, and 24gaveH4376 themselves overH4376 to doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, provokingH3707 Him. 18So the LordH3068 was veryH3966 angryH599 with IsraelH3478, and He 25removedH5493 them from His 26sightH6440; 27noH3808 one was leftH7604 exceptH7534H905 the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063.
