2 Kings 17:11-13
GOD’S WORD Translation
11 At all the illegal places of worship, they sacrificed in the same way as the nations that the Lord had removed from the land ahead of them.
They did evil things and made the Lord furious.
12 They served idols, although the Lord had said, “Never do this.”
13 The Lord had warned Israel and Judah through every kind of prophet and seer,[a] “Turn from your evil ways, and obey my commands and decrees as I commanded your ancestors in all my teachings, the commands I sent to you through my servants the prophets.”
