from underºº
the handº

And they set them upºº
imagesº
and grovesº
inº
everyº
highº
hill,º

 17:13
Yet the LORDº
testifiedºº
against Israel,º

had chargedºº
them, that they should notº
doºº
like them. |

 17:16
And they leftººº
allº
the commandmentsº

a grove,º
and worshippedºº
allº
the hostº

 17:19
Alsoº
Judahº

 17:21
For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drove Israel from following Jehovah, and made them sin a great sin. |
|
 17:21
Forº
he rentºº
Israelº
fromºº
the houseº
of David;º
and they madeº

king:ºº
and Jeroboamº
draveººººº
Israelº
from followingºº

and made them sinºº
a greatº
sin.º |
 17:22
And the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them; |
|
 17:22
For the childrenº
of Israelº
walkedººº
in allº
the sinsº
of Jeroboamº
whichº
he did;ºº
they departedºº
notº
fromº
them; |
 17:23
until Jehovah removed Israel out of his sight, as he spake by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day. |

 17:23
Untilºº
the LORDº
removedººº
Israelº
out ofºº

asº

And the kingº
of Assyriaº
broughtºº
[men] from Babylon,ºº
and from Cuthah,ºº
and from Ava,ºº
and from Hamath,ºº
and from Sepharvaim,º
and placedºº
[them] in the citiesº
of Samariaº
insteadº
of the childrenº
of Israel:º
and they possessedººº
Samaria,º
and dweltºº
in the citiesº
thereof. |
 17:25
And so it was, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not Jehovah: therefore Jehovah sent lions among them, which killed some of them. |

 17:25
And [so] it wasº
at the beginningº
of their dwellingºº
there,º
[that] they fearedºº
notºº
the LORD:º
therefore the LORDº
sentººº
lionsº
among them, which slewºº
[some] of them. |
 17:26
Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast carried away, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the law of the god of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the law of the god of the land. |
|
 17:26
Wherefore they spakeºº
to the kingº
of Assyria,º
saying,ºº
The nationsº
whichº
thou hast removed,ºº
and placedºº
in the citiesº
of Samaria,º
knowºº
notºº
the mannerº
of the Godº
of the land:º
therefore he hath sentººº
lionsº
among them, and, behold,º
they slayºº
them, becauseº
they knowºº
notºº
the mannerº
of the Godº
of the land.º |
 17:27
Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the law of the god of the land. |
|
 17:27
Then the kingº
of Assyriaº
commanded,ºº
saying,ºº
Carryººº
thitherº
oneº
of the priestsºº
whomº
ye broughtºº
from thence;ºº
and let them goººº
and dwellºº
there,º
and let him teachºº
themº
the mannerº
of the Godº
of the land.º |
 17:28
So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they should fear Jehovah. |
|
 17:28
Then oneº
of the priestsºº
whomº
they had carried awayºº
from Samariaºº
cameºº
and dweltºº
in Bethel,º
and taughtºº
them howº
they should fearººº
the LORD.º |
 17:29
Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt. |
|
 17:29
Howbeit every nationº
madeºº
godsº
of their own, and putººº
[them] in the housesº
of the high placesº
whichº
the Samaritansº
had made,ºº
every nationº
in their citiesº
whereinºº
theyº
dwelt.ºº |
 17:30
And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima, |
|
 17:30
And the menºº
of Babylonº
madeººº
Succothbenoth,º
and the menºº
of Cuthº
madeººº
Nergal,º
and the menºº

madeººº

and the Avvites made Nibhaz and Tartak; and the Sepharvites burnt their children in the fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim. |
|
 17:31
And the Avitesºº
madeºº
Nibhazº

and the Sepharvitesºº
burntººº
their childrenº
in fireº
to Adrammelechº
and Anammelech,º
the godsº
of Sepharvaim.º |
 17:32
So they feared Jehovah, and made unto them from among themselves priests of the high places, who sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places. |
|
 17:32
So they fearedºººº
the LORD,º
and madeºº
unto themselves of the lowestºº
of them priestsº
of the high places,º
which sacrificedºº
for them in the housesº
of the high places.º |
 17:33
They feared Jehovah, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations from among whom they had been carried away. |
|
 17:33
They fearedºººº
the LORD,º
and servedººº
their own gods,º
after the mannerº
of the nationsº
whomºº
they carried awayºº
from thence.ºº |
 17:34
Unto this day they do after the former manner: they fear not Jehovah, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law or after the commandment which Jehovah commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel; |
|
 17:34
Untoº
thisº
dayº
theyº
doºº
after the formerº
manners:º
they fearºº
notºº
the LORD,º
neitherº
doºº
they after their statutes,º
or after their ordinances,º
or after the lawº
and commandmentº
whichº
the LORDº
commandedººº
the childrenº
of Jacob,º
whomº
he namedººº
Israel;º |
 17:35
with whom Jehovah had made a covenant, and charged them, saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them: |
|
 17:35
Withº
whom the LORDº
had madeºº
a covenant,º
and chargedºº
them, saying,ºº
Ye shall notº
fearºº
otherº
gods,º
norº
bowºº
yourselvesº
to them, norº
serveºº
them, norº
sacrificeºº
to them: |
 17:36
but Jehovah, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and with an outstretched arm, him shall ye fear, and unto him shall ye bow yourselves, and to him shall ye sacrifice: |
|
 17:36
Butººº
the LORD,º
whoº
brought you upººº
out of the landºº
of Egyptº
with greatº
powerº
and a stretched outºº
arm,º
him shall ye fear,ºº
and him shall ye worship,ºº
and to him shall ye do sacrifice.ºº |
 17:37
and the statutes and the ordinances, and the law and the commandment, which he wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods: |
|
 17:37
And the statutes,º
and the ordinances,º
and the law,º
and the commandment,º
whichº
he wroteºº
for you, ye shall observeºº
to doºº
for evermore;ºº
and ye shall notº
fearºº
otherº
gods.º |
 17:38
and the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods: |
|
 17:38
And the covenantº
thatº
I have madeºº
withº
you ye shall notº
forget;ºº
neitherº
shall ye fearºº
otherº
gods.º |
 17:39
but Jehovah your God shall ye fear; and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies. |
|
 17:39
Butººº
the LORDº
your Godº
ye shall fear;ºº
and heº
shall deliverºº
you out of the handºº
of allº
your enemies.ºº |
 17:40
Howbeit they did not hearken, but they did after their former manner. |
|
 17:40
Howbeit they did notº
hearken,ºº
butºº
theyº
didºº
after their formerº
manner.º |
 17:41
So these nations feared Jehovah, and served their graven images; their children likewise, and their children's children, as did their fathers, so do they unto this day. |
|
 17:41
So theseº
nationsº
fearedºººº
the LORD,º

their graven images,º
bothº
their children,º
