Melachim Bais 17:22-24

Orthodox Jewish Bible

²² For the Bnei Yisroel walked in all the chattot Yarov‘am which he did; they departed not from them;

²³ Until Hashem removed Yisroel out of His sight, as He had said by all His avadim the Nevi’im. So was Yisroel carried away into the Golus out of their own adamah to Ashur (Assyria) unto this day.

²⁴ And Melech Ashur brought men from Babylon, and from Kutah, and from Ava, and from Chamat, and from Sepharvayim, and placed them in the cities of Shomron in the place of Bnei Yisroel; and they possessed Shomron, and dwelt in the cities thereof.
