2 Kings 17:19-21

The Voice

¹⁹ But Judah also abandoned the laws of their God, the Eternal One, and they walked the same wicked path the Israelites had walked. ²⁰ He rejected all the sons and daughters of Israel and banished them from His sight. He made them suffer and handed them over to pillagers until they were finally cast out of His presence.

²¹ After the Eternal had cut Israel out of the house of David, the people made Jeroboam (Nebat’s son) their first king. But he caused the people to turn away from the Eternal One and caused Israel to sin in every way.
