2 Kings 17:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam, which he did, and departed not therefrom,
23 Until the Lord put Israel away out of his sight, as he had said [a]by all his servants the (A)Prophets, and carried Israel away out of their land to Assyria unto this day.
24 And the king of Assyria brought folk from Babylon, and from [b]Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: so they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
