2 Kings 17:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² They served filthy idols even though the Lord had said to them, “You must not do this.”

¹³ The Lord had warned Israel and Judah through all his prophets and seers, saying, “Turn back from your evil ways and keep my commands and my regulations, according to the entire law which I commanded your fathers and which I sent to you through my servants the prophets.” ¹⁴ But they did not listen. They made their necks just as stiff as their fathers, who did not trust in the Lord their God.
