2 Kings 17:11-13

Easy-to-Read Version

¹¹ They burned incense there in all those places for worship.^[a] They did these things like the nations that the Lord forced out of the land before them. The Israelites did evil things that made the Lord angry. ¹² They served idols, and the Lord had said to them, “You must not do this.”

¹³ The Lord used every prophet and every seer to warn Israel and Judah. He said, “Turn away from the evil things you do. Obey my commands and laws. Follow all the law that I gave to your ancestors. I used my servants the prophets to give this law to you.”
