2 Kings 17:15-17
151They rejectedH3988 His statutesH2706 and 2His covenantH1285 whichH834 He madeH3772 with their fathersH1, and His warningsH5715 whichH834 He 3gaveH5749 them. And 4they followedH1980H310 5idolsH1892 and 6becameH1891 emptyH1891, and followedH310 the nationsH1471 that surroundedH5439 them, about whichH834 the 7LordH3068 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: 8twoH8147 calvesH5695. And they 9madeH6213 an 10AsherahH842, and 11worshipedH2331 allH3605 the heavenlyH8064 12lightsH6635, and 13servedH5647 BaalH1168.
17Then 14they made their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 passH5674 through the fireH784, and they 15practicedH7080 divinationH7081 and interpretingH5172 omensH5172, and 16gaveH4376 themselves overH4376 to doH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, provokingH3707 Him.
