2 Kings 17:27-34
27Then the kingH4428 of AssyriaH804 commandedH6680, sayingH559, CarryH1540 thither one of the priestsH3548 whomH834 ye brought from thence; and letH1540 them goH1540 and dwellH3427 there, and letH1540 him teachH3384 them the mannerH4941 of the GodH430 of the landH776.
28SoH1961 one of the priestsH3548 whomH834 they had carriedH1540 awayH1540 from SamariaH8111 cameH935 and dweltH3427 in Beth-el, and taughtH3384 them howH349 they should fearH3372 the LORDH3068.
29Howbeit everyH1471 nationH1471 madeH6213 godsH430 of their ownH1961, and putH3240 them in the housesH1004 of the highH1116 placesH1116 whichH834 the Samaritans had madeH6213, everyH1471 nationH1471 in their citiesH5892 whereinH834 they dweltH3427.
30And the menH376 of BabylonH894 madeH6213 Succoth-benothH5524, and the menH376 of CuthH3575 madeH6213 NergalH5370, and the menH376 of HamathH2574 madeH6213 AshimaH807,
31and the AvvitesH5757 madeH6213 NibhazH5026 and TartakH8662, and the SepharvitesH5616 burntH8313 their childrenH1121 in the fireH784 to AdrammelechH152 and AnammelechH6048, the gods of SepharvaimH5617.
32SoH6213 they fearedH3372 the LORDH3068, and madeH6213 unto them from among themselvesH1992 priestsH3548 of the highH1116 placesH1116, whichH1004 sacrificed for them in the housesH1004 of the highH1116 placesH1116.
33They fearedH3372 the LORDH3068, and servedH5647 their ownH1961 godsH430, afterH1961 the mannerH4941 of the nationsH1471 from among whomH834 they had been carriedH1540 awayH1540.
34Unto this dayH3117 they doH6213 afterH3117 the formerH7223 manners: they fearH3372 notH369 the LORDH3068, neitherH369 doH6213 they afterH3117 their statutesH2708, or afterH3117 their ordinancesH4941, or afterH3117 the lawH8451 or afterH3117 the commandmentH4687 whichH834 the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 the childrenH1121 of JacobH3290, whomH834 he namedH8034 IsraelH3478;
