2 Kings 17:17-20

17They even sacrificed their own sons and daughters in the fire. They consulted fortune-tellers and practiced sorcery and sold themselves to evil, arousing the Lord’s anger.

18Because the Lord was very angry with Israel, he swept them away from his presence. Only the tribe of Judah remained in the land.

19But even the people of Judah refused to obey the commands of the Lord their God, for they followed the evil practices that Israel had introduced.

20The Lord rejected all the descendants of Israel. He punished them by handing them over to their attackers until he had banished Israel from his presence.
