2 Kings 17:2-8

2And he didH6213 that whichH834 was evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, yet notH3808 as the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478 that were beforeH6440 him.

3AgainstH5921 him cameH1961 upH5927 ShalmaneserH8022 kingH4428 of AssyriaH804; and HosheaH1954 becameH1961 his servantH5650, and broughtH5927 him presentsH7725.

4And the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 foundH4672 conspiracyH7195 in HosheaH1954; for he had sentH7971 messengersH4397 to SoH7971 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and offeredH5927 noH3808 presentH4672 to the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804, as he had done yearH8141 by yearH8141: therefore the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 shutH6113 him upH5927, and boundH631 him in prisonH3608.

5Then the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 cameH5927 upH5927 throughoutH3605 allH3605 the landH776, and wentH5927 upH5927 to SamariaH8111, and besieged it threeH7969 yearsH8141.

6In the ninthH8671 yearH8141 of HosheaH1954, the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 tookH3920 SamariaH8111, and carriedH1540 IsraelH3478 awayH1540 unto AssyriaH804, and placedH3427 them in HalahH2477, and in HaborH2249, on the riverH5104 of GozanH1470, and in the citiesH5892 of the MedesH4074.

7And it was soH1961, becauseH3588 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had sinnedH2398 againstH2398 the LORDH3068 their GodH430, which broughtH5927 them upH5927 outH3027 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 from underH8478 the handH3027 of PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and had fearedH3372 otherH312 godsH430,

8and walked in the statutesH2708 of the nationsH1471, whomH834 the LORDH3068 castH3423 outH3423 from beforeH6440 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478, whichH834 they madeH6213.
